Recommending software solutions to improve Finance processes.

HiveMind will recommend software solutions to help the customer achieving the targeted benefits:

– Fast access to reliable data to enable front-line decision making

– Meaningful and actionable KPIs and metrics

– Compliance and data quality is right first time, on time, every time

– Quality, speed and savings from optimisation and automation of finance processes

– Stop arguing over data quality instead of supporting data driven decisions

– Producing accurate timely reports

This service will in general be used in combination with other assignments within the Finance Transformation set of services, especially the ”Optimising Existing Investments” service.

The core of the service is to identify improvement opportunities and process/work flow changes that can lead to visible and quick benefits for the customer – without having to invest in new and costly projects. A solution can be purely an improvement in process, workflow or set-up, but can also include small software add-ins to the existing software portfolio.

When a customer project or assignment clearly indicates that savings or other benefits can be gained by implementing software solutions from House of Control, this will be recommended.

HiveMind may work together with House of Control to implement final solution (software + process improvement).

Project based engagements operate on the basis of agreeing work and any outcomes or milestones for delivery in advance of commencement of any engagement in a ‘Statement of Work’. Prices are fixed for the agreed deliverables and should changes be required, these may incur changes to delivery costs. Payment for Project Based Engagements are agreed on a case-by-case basis, giving consideration to risk, contract value, client payment history, relationship longevity and duration.

Network Units enable complete flexibility around any engagement. When using Network Units, clients can swap and change delivery experts, scope and duration of engagements in a frictionless manner with very little notice, in line with the quantity of Network Units purchased. Network Units can be purchased in blocks of any size and at any time and are billed in full at point of purchase.
