The FRAME Tool is a sophisticated Excel Workbook that allows you to input up to three years of financial data and then generate a variety of performance indicators and financial and management reports. The FRAME Tool is not an accounting system. It is a tool for you to use to analyze the information generated by your accounting system.

Once you have learned FRAME, you can input your financial data for each reporting period into the FRAME tool in just a short amount of time, typically less than an hour. FRAME then provides a broad array of analytical tools and reports that are ready to print out for distribution.
