Case Study: Brücke Schleswig-Holstein improves planning transparency and reporting with Corporate Planning

Brücke Schleswig-Holstein - Customer Case Study

Brücke Schleswig-Holstein GmbH, a non-profit organization providing social and mental health services across northern Germany, faced increasing economic pressure and a growing need for financial transparency. Their decentralized structure, with numerous independent local facilities, required a corporate performance management solution capable of handling bottom-up planning and reporting. They partnered with vendor Corporate Planning to implement their CP-Suite, including modules for planning, analysis, and reporting, to create a unified and accurate basis for budgeting.

Corporate Planning's software enabled decentralized, bottom-up planning through a familiar Excel interface (CP-Excel Plus) and online access via CP-Web, allowing managers at remote locations to enter their own data. The solution streamlined cost apportionment and analysis, significantly reducing the time and effort required for these tasks. It also provided flexible, user-specific reporting and integrated with existing systems like Microsoft Dynamics NAV, eliminating the need for many manual bank statement requests. The Corporate Planning software provided the necessary transparency and control, allowing the organization to maintain a close watch on liquidity and ensure the continued provision of its vital services.
