Case Study: The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh boosts budgeting and reporting speed with Centage

The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh cuts report creation from half a day to 30 minutes with Centage

The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh, a nonprofit serving children with special needs, faced a time-consuming and error-prone financial reporting and budgeting process. Their reliance on manual work in Microsoft Dynamics GP and Excel made it difficult to generate accurate, consolidated reports across their multiple entities. To overcome these challenges, they implemented Centage's FP&A software for budgeting and planning.

By using Centage, the organization automated its complex reporting and allocations. This solution drastically reduced the time needed to create key reports, with one example dropping from half a day to just 30 minutes. The team achieved an 8x increase in budget preparation speed and now has significantly greater confidence in the accuracy of their numbers, allowing managers to review budget vs. actuals with ease.
