Prophix Software, a pioneer in global Corporate Performance Management (CPM) software, has named UK renewable energy experts, Solarcentury as its International Customer of the Year. Solarcentury collected the award, during an awards ceremony conducted at Prophix’s Annual Customer Conference in California, for its innovative use of Prophix as the centre-piece of its integrated financial planning strategy.
Solarcentury became a Prophix customer in 2012 and at that point they were facing some significant challenges by virtue of their reliance on spreadsheets for financial processes, namely broken links and formulas, inaccuracy, poor version control and a lot of wasted time. After an initial proof of concept, Prophix was able to quickly demonstrate the benefits of a robust Corporate Performance Management (CPM) platform, that not only helped them automate reporting and annual budgeting; but also enabled better business decision making by building out detailed analysis of their company’s information, effectively revamping their entire long term strategic planning.
“Solarcentury is a poster child for what can be achieved by deploying the right CPM solution, such has been the positive impact on their business,” said Daniel Mason, Prophix UK Managing Director. “When we work with our customers we often refer to Gartner’s capability maturity model for CPM in order to help benchmark where they are and showcase what is possible, Solarcentury are firmly on the path to maturityand this award is in recognition to the journey they have been on and what we have been able to collectively achieve.”
“When we first evaluated the different CPM solutions available in the market, Prophix seemed like the perfect tool for us. We set ambitious goals for our use of the software, linking seamlessly into multiple data sources to give us one integrated view around financial planning that could shape our business decision making,” adds Jenny Burbridge, Business Analysis & Reporting Manager, Solarcentury. “I am pleased to say our initial assessment of Prophix was absolutely true and I am delighted to accept this award on behalf of the team and look forward to defending the crown next year.”
