How to Build a Construction Model
A Consolidation Model is constructed by combining the financial results of multiple business units into one single model. Typically, the first worksheet of the model is a summary or consolidation view that shows the highest-level figures (monthly and yearly revenues, profits, costs, productivity rate, etc.) in the form of tables, graphs, or charts. Other tabs in the model display financial data by departments, business units, or product lines by years, quarters, or months.
For our sample model, projects are the main “business units” with their own revenues and costs. This is a very simple model with only a few inputs, but in a real-world business setting, consolidation models can be quite complicated, involving multiple data sources and in-depth calculations.
