Case Study: Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School achieves 85 hours/month time savings and improved operational accountability with Sage Intacct

Private high school increases operational accountability

Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School, a 200‑year‑old private Catholic high school in Washington, D.C. serving about 490 students, needed to modernize finance operations. Its on‑premise Blackbaud Financial Edge was siloed from FACTS, Raiser’s Edge and Veracross, forcing manual data re‑entry, time‑consuming Excel reporting and a slow month‑end close.

With Brittenford Systems the school implemented Sage Intacct and SchoolConnect (plus Bill.com) in two months to automate integrations and billing. The change saved roughly 85 hours per month, cut the monthly close by five days, enabled on‑demand consolidated reporting (100+ reports), improved data accuracy and visibility, and increased department and project accountability so managers can monitor and control spending.
