OVERVIEW
Challenges

  • Legacy systems and processes hadn’t kept pace with its multi-national, multi-product business model

  • Ended up with a complicated chart of more than 1,500 accounts created across multiple offices

  • Pain points from Excel-based manual consolidations, no workflow for expense approvals, and coding segment limitations that made it impossible to get enterprise-wide insights

  • Excessive manual processing meant month-end close ran to 20 days, which was exhausting for the finance team

  • Inefficiency, constrained talent optimization, and lack of cost accountability and insights were inhibiting growth and business expansion

  • Lack of workflows increased risk and the potential for fraud

Results
  • Real-time consolidations, transactional efficiency, and control
  • >50% reduction in month-end close time
  • Comprehensive security and revolutionary audit capabilities
  • Greater agility with faster and smarter decisions enabled through analytical insights and self-service reporting
  • A freed-up finance team, so it can spend more time on strategic issues
