Budgeting process: decentralization of budget input
Collaborator
No matter what type of company you work for, the budgetary process is one of the most demanding processes for which you can foresee significant gains in terms of time, money and added value.
Based on the planning performed in the Modelling module, the Collaborator module allows decentralized input and a fast and complete implementation of the entire budgetary cycle. A customized interface is submitted to the managers, who input their respective budgetary data and operational parameters. This way, managers feel more connected to the final result with which they will be confronted. Moreover this allows a considerable reduction in terms of preparation, deployment, collection, conciliation and analysis of budgetary data.
The Collaborator module reinforces cooperation among managers by updating the data of the budgetary model for their respective sectors. Such collaboration is essential during the final results analysis and stimulates synergy between departments.
