Accenture + Microsoft

Transforming the Finance function from preservation to progression

Unprecedented times create unprecedented challenges.

As the global pandemic continues to cause disruption, businesses are looking to Finance to help them ride out uncertainty – not just to protect the bottom line, but also to understand the implications of fast-moving strategic decisions.

To ride out uncertainty, Finance must evolve.

Together with Microsoft, Accenture is combining strategy and technology to help CFOs move forward with their Modern Finance Transformation on Azure, moving Finance beyond just bookkeeping and reporting towards strategic insights, innovation and growth.

Starting your Finance transformation, accelerating, and taking it higher

While there’s no shortage of data, Finance is lacking visibility over it. And Finance itself remains too reactive with the time-to-report no longer matching the pace of business.

Building an effective data platform will help Finance to hold a dual role: not just as preserver, but as a value creator. A function that doesn’t just see where cash opportunities can be uncovered, but grown.

Growing analytics maturity alongside solving the immediate needs of the business is key to this transformation.
