Case Study: Manatt, Phelps & Phillips cuts legal reporting time and gains real-time insights with Vena Solutions

Manatt, Phelps & Phillips cuts month-end reporting prep from one week to a few hours with Vena Solutions

Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, a legal services firm, faced challenges with manual data entry and static reporting in a fast-paced environment. Their legacy tools were rigid and resulted in long turnaround times for financial insights, preventing the finance team from responding quickly to leadership. To address this, they partnered with vendor Vena Solutions to implement a new financial planning and analysis solution.

Vena Solutions replaced the manual processes with dynamic, self-serve models for budgeting, revenue tracking, and productivity reporting. This implementation saved over 15 hours per week in automation, cut month-end reporting prep time from a week to a few hours, and allowed for the earlier identification of unbilled work. Vena enabled the finance team to become a more strategic partner within the firm.
