Financial Solutions Overview

BizFlow® based finance solutions automate and optimize finance processes to reduce costs allowing you to process more with less resources, eliminate errors, improve compliance and improve quality of service.  While you could certainly purchase a number of individual process specific software solutions, our customers benefit from a single BPM platform capable of addressing many finance process needs.

BizFlow® can be used to automate manual processes such as employee travel and expense or purchase requests as well as augment existing business systems automating costly, error prone exception and approval handling associated with AR and AP processes. Another major benefit of applying BPM to finance processes is the ability to more quickly and cost effectively change workflows and rules based on changing business needs.

Optimize Accounts Payable Approval and Exception handling

Many organizations waste time and money from manual activities due associated with routing invoices for approval or exception resolution. Manual processes introduce data entry errors, lost invoices, duplicate payments and payment penalties due to late payments.  Using BizFlow® as the core component of an AP optimization solution, organizations can convert paper-driven approvals and exception handling into a web-based, SOX compliant solution. Added benefits include SOX compliance and accurate visibility into accruals.

Improve Procurement

Requisitioning goods and services often includes lots of moving parts. Finance, distribution, inventory, partner management, and shipping must stay in synch to deliver the right quantities on-time and in budget. The more complex the procurement cycle, the more likely mistakes enter into the total cost of ownership calculation.

Systems and applications exist that support procurement processes. However, these systems often lack workflow functionality that coordinates how procurement stakeholders interact in sharing, validating, and approving contracts and pricing. Everyone needs to know the rules of engagement. And the document flow must be simple, transparent, and easy to handle escalations and exceptions.

Automate Travel and Expense Approvals

The travel and expense process is often a manual, paper based process. Not only is it time consuming and inefficient it can frustrate employees and finance organizations alike. One of the many processes we ourselves automate along with many of our clients is the travel and expense process.

BizFlow allows you to easily

  • Design electronic forms for on-line travel authorization and expense submission

  • Define  routing rules for travel authorization and expense approvals

  • Allows managers to approve on-line or using mobile devices

  • Integrates with existing systems
