do these challenges sound familiar?
- Limited collaboration between finance and the rest of the business, leads to limited ownership in the budgeting process
- Lack of standardization and consistency in planning and reporting processes result in a confidence gap
- Data integrity is a constant struggle, with multiple versions of the truth and limited trust in reported data
- Cost center managers and management team have limited access to timely variance reports; finance manually sends reports to key stakeholders by email
- FP&A and finance teams spend 80% of their time on data collection, validation, synthesis and reconciliation with little time for analysis
- Business managers cannot to perform monthly or quarterly forecasts because current process would take too long for the results to be of value
- Excel cannot scale to model complex business plans
- Finance only serves as a backward-looking data provider, not a forward-looking strategic partner to the organization
