Wrangling data is still one of the biggest challenges treasurers face today. Common cash flow management tools, like treasury management systems or treasury workstations, simply have not kept pace within an economy that is increasingly global and digital. These software options still rely on manual workflows that provide a cash position at a very specific point in time.
“Understanding cash trends and forecasts was a manual and tedious process for us. Just getting the data we would need from various systems was so complicated. Once we actually wrapped our hands around it, there really wasn’t time left to get meaningful insights from it.”
– Aurelia Sirbu, CFO at Orbus
Fortunately, there’s a better way to manage your cash flow. By digitizing their treasury with automated cash management, Orbus saved 10+ hours a week typically taken up by arduous manual workflows, giving back critical time to accomplish strategic objectives and propel their business forward.
The Challenge of Managing Cash Flow with Disparate Data Sources
Before digitizing their treasury with Trovata, Orbus, the market-leading national group specializing in displays, exhibits, banner stands, and architectural signage, relied on traditional methods to calculate and track their cash flow.
Having to download their bank statements spread across the globe and manually consolidate and normalize that transaction data took its toll as Orbus had less time and resources to analyze trends and make the data useful. This time-consuming cycle ensured that Orbus couldn’t be as creative and exploratory within their reporting.
Orbus needed a solution to reduce their manual efforts while also providing better cash reporting capabilities.
