Building Financial Agility for an Optometry Management Giant
PROJECT INFORMATION
This North American healthcare provider delivers comprehensive management services to independent optometry practices, including financial, marketing, HR, accounting, credentialing, and claims processing. As they grew, they faced increasing demands on their finance systems to improve control, accuracy, and operational efficiency.
CHALLENGES
The client’s legacy procurement system and manual processes led to inefficiencies and limited their ability to make data-driven financial decisions. Key challenges included:
- Spending Controls: Lack of robust spend controls for both direct and indirect items hindered cost optimization.
- Project Tracking: Needed functionality to track capital expenditures (CapEx) against individual projects.
- Invoice Matching: Manual invoice matching led to errors and delayed payment cycles.
- Budgeting Capabilities: Required a centralized planning platform to track transactions, approvals, and budget variances in real-time.
