Armand Michaud
Armand has more than 15 years of experience in financial management and decision-making for industrial, construction, and distribution companies. From fractional accounting and CFO work to financial consulting, he’s helped small businesses with ten employees to global manufacturing and fabrication leaders to plan, track, and report on budgets and key performance metrics.
Small business clients view Armand as a valued partner whose first priority is understanding their business goals in order to build financial plans, budgets, procedures, and implementation systems to track and report on metrics that move the needle. He has optimized financials for companies seeking to minimize overhead, centralize operations geographically, and expand to numerous business segments.
With financial leadership spanning Fortune 100 companies, companies with $1B revenue, and some of the world’s largest production facilities, Armand supports management from publicly traded and private equity (PE) owned companies in making data-based decisions that spell success. He has particular expertise in job-costing as well as implementing and optimizing financial Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) programs like JD Edwards. Leading the financial operations of multiple large-scale facilities, Armand learned first-hand that running a successful business at scale requires a strong culture, with goal-oriented leaders who are willing to go the extra mile.
When Armand is not working, he enjoys spending time with his family, including his two young children. As a lifelong LSU fan, you can normally find Armand wearing purple or gold on Saturdays. He also enjoys outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, and snow skiing.
