The Journey Historical Perspective

ƒ Totally reliant on excel for - Budgeting / Forecasting - Monthly Reporting - Consolidation ƒ All supporting schedules were excel or word based ƒ Complex spreadsheets with single point failure ƒ Lack of confidence in the accuracy of formula and too prone to numbers being changed or manipulated without controls ƒ Business undergoing significant growth & change P8

As at 30 June 2008

The Journey Brio

ƒ Implemented in 2004 to address the reporting and analysis requirements of our Property Management Business ƒ Later expanded to report on capital expenditure and project status ƒ Chosen for it’s ease of use, queries could be easily written by in house staff, push capability to publish reports ƒ Brio was acquired by Hyperion in late 2004 / early 2005

The Journey The Next Phase - Hyperion

ƒ Business expansion and diversification ƒ Brio was meeting Property Management Reporting but we still extensively relied on excel for Corporate Planning and Reporting ƒ Statutory structure was becoming more complex ƒ Increased complexity of financial analysis and reporting ƒ Hyperion started to integrate Brio as their BI tool

The Journey The Requirements

ƒ A centralised integrated budgeting and planning tool (not excel) ƒ Ability to easily do “what if” analysis ƒ Ability to have multiple versions of budgets / forecasts ƒ Development of planning templates ƒ Automate the consolidation of monthly management reports ƒ Statutory consolidation using a different reporting hierarchy than Management Reporting and complete Statutory / Management Reconciliation P11
