From Manual Spreadsheets to a Single Source of Truth
The Problem
Morgan Services' eight general managers relied on manually created Excel files to build and circulate budgets to the president and controller. The process was time-consuming and occasionally caused errors when spreadsheet formulas or cells were inadvertently altered.
The Solution
Solver integrated seamlessly with Morgan Services' existing ERP, Microsoft Dynamics GP, automating and simplifying the budgeting process and saving months of work. Its forecasting and reporting capabilities also gave the team fast, detailed access to critical data for immediate adjustments.
The Result
Budgeting that once took five to six months now takes only a few weeks. Drilling into costs, tracing who's charging them and where, gives Morgan Services a clear path to a stronger return on its investment.
