Case Study: Ward Church cuts budgeting time and streamlines financial management with Martus Solutions

Ward Church saves up to 10 hours a month with Martus Solutions

Ward Church, a multi-generational congregation in Michigan, faced a significant challenge in managing its finances. Their budgeting process relied entirely on spreadsheets, which required distributing and collecting files, fixing broken formulas, and manually keying data into their Sage Intacct accounting system. This manual workflow was prone to human error, consumed valuable staff time, and created unnecessary costs as staff needed expensive Sage Intacct licenses for budget visibility.

Martus Solutions implemented its integrated planning and reporting tool to directly connect with Sage Intacct. This solution provided Ward Church with an easy-to-use, self-service platform for budgeting and financial reporting. The results were substantial: Martus Solutions helped the church save up to 10 hours per month on budgeting, eliminated manual data scavenger hunts, and reduced costs by removing the need for additional Sage Intacct licenses, allowing staff to focus more on the church's mission.
