Spreadsheets and gut instinct can’t keep up with today’s supply chains. Not when demand swings unpredictably, suppliers face constant disruption, and customer expectations continue to rise. Gartner analysts forecast that, by 2030, 70% of large orgs will adopt AI-based forecasting to predict future demand. This marks a significant shift from manual processes to automated demand…

Real-time visibility tells you what’s happening across your supply chain right now. Where your orders are. How much inventory you have. Which carriers are delayed. What’s happening inside your plants and warehouses. You get the idea. But on its own, visibility is mostly descriptive. Sure, you get the “what.” But you don’t get the “why…

In any merger or acquisition, the milestone that creates the most anxiety isn’t the signing ceremony or the press release — it’s Day One.

Dashboards and AI raise expectations in finance — faster closes, cleaner variance reviews, steadier forecasts, tighter cash. The hurdle is the data behind them. It lives across ERP, AP, payroll, CRM, banking portals, spreadsheets, and more. When definitions shift, calendars don’t match, or currency rules vary by team, AI loses its edge and dashboards spark…

For finance teams, speed is the mandate and trust is the currency.

Month-end shouldn’t feel like a fire drill. Yet for many teams it still does — late adjustments, reconciling in circles, and a scramble to explain the story behind the numbers.
