Case Study: Queen’s University Office of Partnerships & Innovation achieves automated budgeting and accurate license revenue modeling with Prophix Software

Making the Finance Grade at Queen’s University Office of Partnerships & Innovation

Queen’s University’s Office of Partnerships & Innovation (formerly PARTEQ) helps researchers commercialize discoveries and supports startups, managing hundreds of license agreements and complex revenue streams. Their finance team relied on manual spreadsheets and annual planning, which made consolidation slow, variance analysis difficult and left them with little visibility into the year ahead.

By implementing Prophix CPM with direct integration to their license database and Sage Accpac, OPI automated budgeting and created continuously updated plans that model “what‑if” scenarios, cash flow and license risk profiles. The result is a single source of truth that enables accurate budget scenarios for each agreement, improves accountability and frees finance to deliver strategic, value‑adding insight across the organization.
