Case Study: Alzheimer’s Research UK improves finance efficiency with Columbus and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Using the power of D365 Business Central to improve efficiency

Alzheimer's Research UK, the UK's leading dementia charity, faced significant inefficiencies with its outdated finance software. The system was not mobile-friendly, necessitating on-site work, and it made manual reconciliation and complex charity reporting a slow and cumbersome process. To support its growth and improve efficiency, the charity partnered with vendor Columbus to find a new solution.

Columbus implemented a cloud-based Dynamics 365 Business Central solution for Alzheimer's Research UK, integrating it with Jet Reports and Power BI. This provided a secure, mobile platform with automated processes and enhanced reporting capabilities. The project was delivered on time and budget, resulting in substantial time savings; for example, the grant reconciliation process became three times faster, and manual processes were cut by two thirds.
