From budget to audit: continuous financial governance for production finance
NODUS connects budgets, contracts, commitments, invoices, payments, cash-flow, incentives, reporting and audit evidence into one governed lifecycle.
NODUS turns the financial execution of a production into one structured, permissioned and audit-ready financial record.

The NODUS financial governance lifecycle
One governed lifecycle from budget setup to final audit.
Budget Governance
Approved budget, versions, cost lines, departments and control rules.
Contract Intelligence
Financial obligations, milestones, payment schedules and supporting documents extracted and structured.
Commitment Control
Commitments and purchase orders validated against budget before spend is incurred.
Invoice & Payroll Validation
Invoices, payroll claims and supplier documents matched against contracts, commitments and approvals.
Payment Governance
Payments checked against authorization rules, cash schedules and supporting evidence before money moves.
Cash Forecasting
Short-term liquidity, payment timing, funding gaps and scenario planning updated continuously.
Incentives & Eligibility
Eligible spend, tax incentive documentation, public funding evidence and compliance requirements tracked during execution.
Reporting & Stakeholder Visibility
Permissioned dashboards for producers, financiers, broadcasters, platforms, tax investors, advisors and auditors.
Audit Readiness
Evidence packages, financial traceability reports and structured audit trails prepared continuously, not reconstructed at the end.
Operational outcomes
What NODUS produces for every production.
Dashboards
Real-time visibility over budget, commitments, invoices, payments, cash-flow and audit status.
Alerts & Exceptions
Automatic alerts for budget overruns, missing evidence, payment mismatches, duplicate invoices and compliance gaps.
Single Source of Truth
One structured financial record connecting documents, approvals, payments and evidence.
Permissioned Stakeholder Visibility
Each stakeholder sees the information they need, without disrupting the producer’s operational control.
Traceability & Accountability
Every financial event is linked to its contract, budget line, approval, payment and supporting evidence.
Audit-Ready Evidence
Final audit preparation becomes continuous, structured and evidence-based.
