KAI Consulting

KAI Consulting are specialists in TV and Film Production Management. Passionate about the creative industry, we're a leading global provider of financial management solutions for some of the world's largest and most dynamic production companies. We offer invaluable solutions and advice to businesses that want to maintain a competitive edge in an ever-expanding and fast-changing landscape.

Nearly two decades ago - specialists in our field since 1999 - we discovered a gap in the production industry space: no nonsense, easy-to-use production accounting software and a crucial bridge between production and finance. With help from our clients we developed OctopusPMI, the most advanced production management tool, specifically for production companies.

OctopusPMI benefits from containing all the production finance management tools in one ‘box’ from initial budgeting to final CR. It provides instant monitoring and supervisory capability, I cannot imagine there being a more superior product on the market.

OctopusPMI supports productions of all sizes across the range of genres, from animation, to factual, to award-winning drama. Built to deliver effective management from initial planning of resources, to budgeting, live cost-management and forecasting, to highly secure purchase-to-pay management. Since it is integrated with Sage 500/1000, OctopusPMI also delivers your management and financial reporting needs.

It saves so much time and is more accurate. Great for corporate and production reporting. We have everything in one place, with a system that delivers exactly what we need. We wouldn’t want to be without it.
