Case Study: Intelligent Processing Solutions Limited achieves 66% faster budgeting and forecasting with Vena Solutions

iPSL's Planning Cycle Is 66% Faster With Vena

iPSL is a U.K. payment‑processing firm that clears over 500 million cheques a year for major banks and runs Oracle for ERP. Finance relied on interlinked offline Excel spreadsheets, manual consolidation and inconsistent reporting, which created errors, version-control problems and a slow six‑week budgeting and forecasting cycle that left stakeholders working with out-of-date numbers.

By implementing Vena’s native Excel interface integrated with Oracle, iPSL established a single source of truth, standardized reports and automated data consolidation while keeping the familiar Excel experience. The finance team now completes budgets and forecasts in 10 days (a 66% faster cycle), has real‑time access to live financials, achieved full adoption across the business and delivers clearer, more actionable insights for strategic planning.
