Where it broke
Budgeting and financial planning were handled through disconnected spreadsheets, manual aggregation across departments, and delayed reporting cycles. Financial teams spent more time compiling reports than analyzing them.
- Inconsistent financial data across departments
- Limited forecasting capability
- Delayed strategic decisions
- Low visibility into spending patterns
Finance was reacting, not steering.
How we went about it
We executed a data-first AI transformation strategy over 8 weeks, fixing the foundations before layering on intelligence.
Financial Workflow Assessment
We analyzed budget creation processes, reporting workflows, and data sources to find the real friction.
