Case Study: Frankford Hospitals achieves faster, more accurate financial reporting (cutting report time from 1 day to 1 hour) with Binary Stream Materials Management for Microsoft Dynamics GP

New Software Helps Hospital Chain Share Information, Streamline Processes

Frankford Hospitals, a community hospital system serving Northeast Philadelphia and Bucks County, struggled with an aging MS‑DOS–based financial system that forced manual data entry, paper purchase requests, and difficult, time‑consuming reporting. To modernize and integrate its finance and materials‑management processes, Frankford selected Microsoft (implementing Microsoft Dynamics GP) with implementation support from Microsoft Gold Certified partner Tectura and Binary Stream Software.

Microsoft deployed Microsoft Dynamics GP (integrated with Siemens INVISION, Tectura’s ReQlogic, and Binary Stream’s Materials Management) to about 40 users, automating requisitions, purchase‑order workflows, and document imaging. As a result — per Frankford — month‑end report processing dropped from about one day to one hour, staff can perform real‑time daily audits and drill to transaction detail, roughly 10,000 monthly invoices are handled more efficiently, and total cost of ownership has decreased while financial controls and reporting accuracy have improved.
