The issue
Many finance teams that function as a part of a larger organisation face a range of challenges.
Without local autonomy, they are often provided with a corporate system that has been configured to prepare reports for the larger entity, but that system doesn’t meet local needs.
Many of these teams try unsuccessfully to find a solution that can be implemented quickly and easily at the local level that also allows bi-directional information to be exchanged within the corporate system to reduce duplication.
However, due to tight budget controls and pre-existing demands on the IT team and infrastructure, these teams often find it easier to make do with spreadsheets to meet their local requirements.
The solution
For these particular finance teams, a cost-effective system that is easy to implement and that requires minimal training time is the obvious solution.
They also need to know that their data can be seamlessly integrated into the corporate system, meeting the reporting requirements of the larger entity as well as providing a local perspective.
In addition to ease of implementation, these teams need a system that requires minimal training time and is easy to maintain. Even more critical, is the ability to change reporting formats quickly to incorporate and respond to new directions from the larger entity.
