The budgeting process is one of the last great frontiers of re-engineering. Grant Thornton can help you create a planning process that links your budgets and forecasts back to your organization’s strategy and the operational plans that drive it.
We look at your strategic planning process and how it integrates with your budgeting and forecasting processes. Solutions may involve the implementation of new technologies to manage the processing and distribution of planning and budgeting information, such as the use of online or desktop applications to replace your spreadsheets.
Grant Thornton can help you start to manage your financial performance in real time and:
- reduce your planning cycles from months to just weeks
- increase collaboration in the process at all levels of the organization, using simple forms and the language of front line managers
- move to an integrated process that provides “one version of the truth”
- implement a sustainable process improvement framework that supports corporate strategy, allocates resources efficiently and manages costs
