Journey of Cassandra, CFO

Cassandra is the CFO for a chemical processing plant. Her role requires bringing financial discipline and stability through best practices. In Cassandra's day-to-day schedule, she uses financial reporting and analysis to monitor and communicate growth initiatives to executives across the organization. As CFO she is leading the team in developing strategic financial initiatives that enable growth and profitability.

As financial regulations increase, the need for a more robust system is becoming more evident for Cassandra and her team. She is looking for a ERP that can perform Pricing Strategies, Financial modeling and ensure compliance is maintained . Additionally, Cassandra needs a system in place that can help her team stay on top of GDPR regulations as they are updated and assist with internal and external yearly audits. It is critical to generate reports for executives that detail the health of the companies finances using real time data. Cassandra and her team need to compile these reports and have them in presentation format without taking a huge amount of time, and know that having an embedded Power BI may be what they are looking for.
