A Board Case Study
FHNW centralizes financial planning and reporting in 5 months with Board
Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz FHNW, a leading applied sciences university in Switzerland, faced a challenge in achieving transparency and efficient reporting. Its financial, HR, and student data were siloed across three separate systems (SAP, a bespoke workload tool, and Evento), making combined evaluation difficult and complex. The finance department sought a modern Management Information System to centralize its data, reduce manual reporting, and evolve into a more consultative function.
The university implemented the Board Enterprise Planning Platform to create a centralized solution. The Board platform merged data from various sources into a single source of truth, enabling real-time views and ad-hoc reporting. As a result, FHNW benefits from greater efficiency, enterprise-wide transparency, and enhanced decision-making. The solution is used by approximately 450 staff and project managers, providing them with fast, complex reports and features like geomapping to visually track student origins.
