Case Study: Genesee & Wyoming achieves 40% faster month-end close and seamless ERP migration with FloQast

Genesee & Wyoming Automates Financial Close and Migrates ERP

Genesee & Wyoming (G&W), a Rochester, NY–based owner and operator of 115 freight railroads, needed to streamline a cumbersome month-end Close and ensure SOX audit readiness while preparing for an ERP migration. Multiple balance sheet reconciliations across entities and the planned move from Dynamics GP to Dynamics 365 threatened to slow reporting and increase audit risk.

G&W selected FloQast for its fast implementation and centralized reconciliation workflows; FloQast also managed chart-of-accounts mapping and conversion during the ERP cutover. The result: days-to-close fell 40% (from seven days to four), SOX preparedness improved with fewer failures, audits became less time-consuming, and teams gained clearer accountability and completeness reporting.
