Due to the dynamic nature of EOS’ business and the need for strict budgeting and forecasting of revenues/expenses and other financial indicators, EOS monitors its financial situation and stability on a weekly basis. Constantly striving for innovation, EOS Bulgaria was searching for options to implement a modern and powerful planning solution. The ScaleFocus team positioned
IBM Cognos Express as the ultimate choice for optimized, stable and flexible enterprise-level forecasting. After the implementation in EOS’ financial department, the following immediate and tangible results were achieved:
- Over 4 times reduction in the time for reports’ and plans’ generation. - Data cleansing and single-point of truth.
- Significant reduction in the probability of errors, generated during manual data entry.
- Reliable database, allowing traceability and historization.
- Identity and access management – different users have access only to the data they are supposed to operate with.
- Creation of multiple plans based on "what-if" analysis.
- Transparency, flexibility, audit of reports, budgets and more.
A pilot implementation of IBM Cognos TM1 was delivered by Scale Focus AD to DSK Bank. The solution could facilitate the centralization and automation of the budgeting and planning processes within the bank.
The pilot implementation (Proof of concept) has been accomplished successfully by ScaleFocus’ business analysts and technical consultants, working closely with bank’s IT and business users. Detailed analysis was carried out for two months: over the processes of planning and budgeting and their target templates; over the sources, semantics, and specific business logic and data quality; over the requirements for information security and access rights of the users. DSK Bank’s employees from the Planning department tested the solution in a close to a real situation (hands-on-session) – with different user levels in the planning hierarchy, with approval/rejection of plans, with detailed changes’ tracking and automatic notifications and control of data access and templates, according to employees’ responsibilities.
There were implemented processes such as: planning based on data from past periods, betting on different volumes and/or interest rates and their change; correction of data from different users and their automatic reflection in the overall statement of the bank; work with different plan versions and what-if analysis, and more.
Taking a process-based approach to risk is the easiest way to be Solvency II compliant for managing market, credit, liquidity, insurance and operational risks.
