Case Study: UrbanFootprint achieves faster reporting and better collaboration with Vareto

Accelerating efficiency and collaboration at UrbanFootprint

UrbanFootprint, a company that helps organizations identify where to invest and deploy resources for resilient infrastructure and communities, was spending too much time on manual financial modeling and reporting in Excel. Its small finance team needed a simpler FP&A tool that would streamline budgeting, reporting, and rolling forecasts without requiring a dedicated administrator or a steep learning curve. Vareto was selected to help centralize and simplify these processes.

With Vareto’s real-time integrations and collaboration features, UrbanFootprint created a single source of truth for financial data, reduced copy-and-paste errors, and enabled department leaders to access and drill into their own numbers. The finance team saved more than 10 hours per month and was able to deliver reports 3 to 4 days earlier, while also fostering more strategic, data-driven conversations across the business. Vareto helped UrbanFootprint shift from manual reporting to a more collaborative planning culture.
