Case Study: University College London achieves faster budgeting and improved reporting for thousands of users with Strata Decision Technology

University College London Expedites Budgeting and Improves Reporting for Thousands of Users with Axiom

University of College London (UCL) faced slow, manual budgeting and forecasting and inconsistent reporting caused by having to aggregate data from multiple source systems and respond to a high volume of stakeholder requests. UCL engaged Strata Decision Technology and deployed Axiom’s budgeting, forecasting, and reporting solution as a single, higher-education–focused platform to simplify data integration and give users direct access to needed information.

Strata Decision Technology implemented Axiom to provide direct integrations, automated report delivery to thousands of users, user-based security for over 4,500 users, and self-service drill‑through reporting. The result was improved data accuracy, earlier access to transaction-level detail, a shift in finance staff time from data assembly to analysis, and effectively immediate turnaround between budget submission, consolidation, and review—substantially reducing manual reconciliation and speeding decision cycles.
