What problem does it solve?
Building financial models end-to-end is often disjointed, leading to inconsistent quality, missed critical steps, and non-compliance with SumProduct's CRaFT (Consistency, Robustness, Flexibility, Transparency) quality standards for production-grade Excel models.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Coordinates the full 6-phase CRaFT model build lifecycle (Scope, Plan, Design, Build, Test, Implement) by invoking dedicated phase-specific sub-skills for each stage of work.
- Carries state, artefacts, and model type context between phases to ensure continuity and correct application of type-specific checks and standards.
- Handles test failure routing, fix-and-retest loops, and mid-lifecycle build resumption via structured lifecycle logs for reliable, repeatable model development.
- Use Case: SumProduct teams building 3-statement integrated models, DCF valuations, project finance models, or any of the 13 supported financial model types that require strict adherence to CRaFT principles.
Quick Start
Use the fm-orchestrator skill to build a 3-statement integrated financial model for a manufacturing client from scratch following CRaFT methodology.
