In practice

Connecting CRM and finance

A typical example of the change we make. Every engagement is shaped around your process.

Before

  • Orders rekeyed from CRM into finance
  • Month-end reconciliation takes days
  • Errors found by customers first
  • Nightly file transfer fails silently

After

  • Orders flow automatically via API
  • Records reconcile continuously
  • Validation catches errors at source
  • Failures trigger an alert and a retry

Data is entered once, checked once and trusted everywhere.

Example engagement

One version of the truth: governed reporting

What we delivered
A governed data model on Azure, automated pipelines from source systems and Power BI dashboards with row-level security.
The outcome
Consistent figures across the organisation, reports available on demand, and analyst time redirected from assembly to insight.
