Client Success Story:
Finance transformation for a
residential mortgage fund
Implemented a purpose built accounting platform integrated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central within the first year.
A residential mortgage fund engagement began with a lean start up environment that relied on an external accountant and a limited accounting platform. Within the first year, the finance function was rebuilt around a more scalable structure, including the implementation of a purpose built accounting platform integrated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, the hiring of key accounting personnel, and tighter alignment between accounting and asset management.
Built the accounting team, including controller, analysts or accountants, and accounts payable support.
Integrated accounting with asset management to support a more scalable and fully operational finance environment.
