Template

Work through a response plan for the cash shortfall described in {crisis_context}. Order matters — assess before acting: (1) Size the problem precisely: week-by-week cash position through the trough, identifying the exact depth and duration of the gap rather than a vague sense of trouble. (2) Triage obligations by consequence of delay: payroll and payroll taxes first (personal liability and trust-fund penalties attach to the latter), then obligations that trigger cross-defaults or loss of critical supply, then everything else — never let the loudest creditor jump the queue over the most dangerous one. (3) Accelerate inflows: collections push on the largest receivables, deposits on new work, sale of genuinely idle assets. (4) Decelerate outflows: negotiate terms with suppliers before missing payments, since proactive communication preserves relationships that silent default destroys; pause discretionary spending. (5) Bridge remaining gaps with financing options ranked by cost and speed, reading covenants before drawing. (6) Set the trigger points at which the plan escalates to restructuring professionals. Communicate one consistent story to all stakeholders.
