Abstract

A service company in the human resources sector is considered, which already uses digital tools in the area of financial controlling. The creation of a plan and its periodic comparison to the realized values has been characterized by a considerable manual effort and limited to the initial design of the planning and controlling template. The resulting lack of flexibility is in contrast to a dynamic market environment as well as an expansion of the core areas of the company. The goals of digitization are to build an agile business intelligence supported controlling and reporting framework and the associated driver-based planning. This case study also highlights the technical relationship between the two topics. The timeline of the project and an ongoing success story about digitalization in financial controlling are described.
