Case Study: The SLAM boosts planning efficiency with insightsoftware Bizview

SLAM Increases Planning Efficiency by Pairing Bizview With Deltek Vantagepoint

The SLAM, an architecture, engineering and construction firm, needed a better way to handle budgeting and planning as it grew from three offices to nine. Its spreadsheet-based and then legacy budgeting processes were time-consuming, error-prone, and difficult to connect with Deltek Vantagepoint, so the company turned to insightsoftware and its Bizview product for a more integrated approach.

With insightsoftware’s Bizview integrated to Deltek Vantagepoint, The SLAM gained real-time access to ERP data, streamlined employee and general ledger imports, and enabled faster rolling forecasts and scenario planning in an Excel-like environment. The results were significant: initial budget reporting time dropped from 34 hours to 18 hours, a 53% reduction, and monthly rolling forecast maintenance fell from 1.5–2 hours to about 30 minutes, a 67% time savings.
