Data!

Data are the basis for all work - both in Finance and in the other support functions. Nevertheless, many companies experience challenges acquiring the desired data quality as well as structuring and making their data available.

 

We would like to help you do something about this!

Data as your basis

Your systems are never better than your data. Since data are a bit like the bricks of your house. If they aren't strong, stable and properly structured, everything will fall into ruins. That's why data quality and a solid data structure form the basis of all your Finance IT initiatives and projects. Whether you intend to automate heavy, manual processes or implement a new ERP system.

 

This is expressed by the old, well-known idiom "crap in – crap out”. And there is a simple reason for this: Namely that the idiom contains much truth. Because you'll get nothing but a poor - and in worst case useless end-product if the data that you feed into your systems are incorrect or incomplete.

 

But luckily, you can do a lot to create quality data.

Consider your data structure the basis of your financial systems

Our approach to data follows our Finance IT Foundation Framework, illustrated below, the focus of which is on technology as a financial lever. This means that - with this as our point of departure - we can help you analyse your underlying IT and system structure, which has a direct impact on the basis for timely, correct, complete, efficient, reliable, and insightful financial information. 

So, your basis becomes manageable - and more specifically the data structure that is so decisive for the basis or for the systems that you may implement on top of it.

Finance IT Services is made up of a team with a solid understanding of financial processes and of financial management as well as digital skills, including experience with all data aspects. Our approach is 'hands-on', meaning that we provide advice based on the experience acquired from the financial engine room of major Danish and international companies.

BI solutions

Boost your data with a BI solution. The use of data is decisive for creating insight in your business and bringing what cannot be seen with the naked eye into the light. But unfortunately, data analyses may quickly develop into a heavy and time-consuming obligation that does not create the value desired - especially if data analysis equals reporting.  But, in this connection the right BI solution may become your best friend and help you use your data as value-creating as possible.
