Case Study: Relyant Communications achieves 65% faster month-end closes and $250K+ annual savings with Unanet Financials

RELYANT Global Implements Unanet Financials to Drive Efficiency

RELYANT Global, a Service-Disabled Veteran‑Owned small business headquartered in Maryville, TN that provides construction, MMR & environmental services and global development support, struggled with an inefficient Deltek Costpoint system. They lacked real‑time visibility, had cumbersome project coding and many manual workarounds, long month‑end closes, and insufficient reporting — all of which hindered growth and forced the team into tactical work instead of strategic priorities.

After implementing Unanet Financials, RELYANT gained enterprise‑wide real‑time insight, streamlined processes, and self‑service reporting. Monthly closes fell from 23–25 days to eight days (a 65–68% reduction), payroll processing saves 1.5 days per week, and the company reports over $250,000 annual savings; they were able to double in size without adding finance headcount while improving compliance, project management, and customer reporting.
