Case Study: Association for Project Management achieves streamlined finance processes and scalable growth with Access Group

How Access finance and accounting software has helped APM improve their finance system

The Association for Project Management (APM), the chartered body for the project profession with over 29,000 members, faced unreliable financial records and many manual, spreadsheet-driven processes after replacing an outsourced finance system. To address this, APM engaged Access Group and implemented Access Financials Suite and Access Workspace (including Expense and Making Tax Digital modules) to improve data visibility, reliability and move away from disparate systems.

Access Group delivered an integrated, automated finance solution—introducing automated purchase orders, an invoice register and approvals used by just under 100 users—that streamlined purchasing and invoicing, eliminated paper workflows and made reporting more reliable. As a result, APM has gained significant efficiency, been able to grow the organisation, and continue to add Access Group modules over time to meet evolving business needs.
