Case Study: British Institute of Innkeeping improves financial reporting with Gravity Software

British Institute of Innkeeping cuts month-end close to Day 5 with Gravity Software

The British Institute of Innkeeping (BII), a nonprofit supporting the UK hospitality trade, faced significant challenges with its outdated Sage 50cloud accounting system. The Head of Finance sought a true cloud-based solution from a vendor like Gravity Software to eliminate the time-consuming process of manually consolidating reports from nearly 50 Excel tabs and to streamline the inefficient, insecure method of logging in and out of different entities.

By implementing Gravity Software's multi-entity accounting solution, the BII automated purchase order approvals via Microsoft Power Automate and gained the flexibility to manage reporting dimensions seamlessly. The results for the BII were substantial, including a faster month-end close completed by the fifth day of the month and significant time savings as staff no longer needed to switch between entities, giving the team greater confidence in their financial numbers.
