Understanding Your Financial Position Through Meaningful Comparison
Blasterina started because we noticed something odd. Companies across Singapore were making budget decisions without really knowing if they were spending sensibly compared to similar businesses. It wasn't about finding the cheapest option or copying competitors—it was about understanding context.
We built our benchmarking approach around a simple idea: financial data becomes more useful when you can see how it stacks up against relevant peers. Not vague industry averages, but specific comparisons that actually matter for your business model and market position.
What started as a consultation service has grown into something we're genuinely proud of. We work with manufacturing firms, retail operations, service providers—basically any business that wants clearer visibility into their spending patterns and resource allocation.
What Guides Our Work
Real Comparisons, Not Generic Averages
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all industry benchmarks. Your business context matters—size, location, business model, growth stage. We match you with relevant peer data so comparisons actually inform decisions.
Clarity Over Complexity
Financial analysis can get tangled fast. We focus on presenting insights in ways that make sense for practical decision-making. You shouldn't need an accounting degree to understand where your budget stands.
Confidentiality As Standard Practice
Budget data is sensitive. We anonymize all comparison data and maintain strict privacy protocols. You'll see how you compare without exposing your financial details to anyone else in the benchmarking pool.
How We Actually Do This
Our process isn't complicated, but it does require attention to detail. Here's how we turn raw financial data into useful comparisons.
Data Collection Setup
We work with you to identify which budget categories and metrics matter most for your business. Then we establish secure data transfer protocols that protect your information while ensuring accuracy.
Peer Group Matching
Using your business profile, we identify comparable companies in our database. This matching considers industry sector, revenue range, employee count, and operating model to ensure relevant comparisons.
Analysis and Reporting
We analyze your spending patterns against peer benchmarks, highlighting areas where you're aligned, over-allocated, or potentially under-investing. Reports focus on actionable insights rather than just raw numbers.
Why Context Changes Everything
A manufacturing company with 50 employees shouldn't benchmark against a 500-person operation, even in the same industry. Scale changes priorities. So does geographic location, supply chain complexity, and dozens of other factors.
We've spent years refining our matching algorithms to account for these variables. The goal is always the same: give you comparison data that reflects businesses facing similar operational realities to yours.
This approach occasionally means telling clients we don't have enough comparable peer data yet for a meaningful benchmark. That honesty matters more than forcing inadequate comparisons.
