Case Study: Tasman District Council achieves dramatic time‑savings and improved financial certainty with MAGIQ Software

Tasman District Council - Customer Case Study

Tasman District Council was relying on labour-intensive, manual processes to build its 10-year Long Term Plan, which limited the Finance team’s ability to deliver the detailed business information needed for council decision‑making. To address this, Tasman District Council engaged MAGIQ Software and implemented the MAGIQ Financial Planning application (part of the MAGIQ Performance suite).

MAGIQ Software delivered an automated financial planning solution that centralized business rules and data, cutting production to a one‑person task and delivering a balanced trial balance in about 20 minutes. The council can now construct and review multiple “what‑if” scenarios (six scenarios and account‑level variances were reviewed within 20 minutes), achieve significant time savings, and rely on improved data accuracy and certainty for better decision‑making.
