Financial Management

WebFOCUS allows secure Web-based access to financial information, so users can create their own reports detailing any kind of account information.

In the face of shrinking budgets, the demand for higher transparency, and a volatile economy, government agencies need to maintain an iron grip on finances. But gaining firm control with up-to-date information can be elusive, especially when dealing with hard-to-reach legacy mainframe systems or COTS financial systems that do not provide flexible and easy-to-use tools for reporting and analysis.

Information Builders' business intelligence and enterprise integration solutions enable federal, state, and local agencies to consolidate financial information from multiple disparate sources and deliver it in secure role-based environment. Agency and department administrators and executives can access high-level summary information on how their program's budgets are performing relative to actual expenditures and be able to drill down into line items. Financial analysts can slice and dice information, performing ad hoc analysis and examining trends over time. Program managers can see, in detail, where money is going in the programs they administer. With comprehensive, real-time information at their fingertips, decision-makers can gain complete visibility into the finances of an agency, department, initiative, and program to make more informed financial decisions.

Information Builders technologies also help agencies save money by reducing fraud, abuse, and waste; increase productivity and decrease costly errors by automating financial reporting processes; plan for the future by analyzing revenue trends and forecasts; and make timelier, better informed decisions by providing up-to-the-minute data via customizable financial portals. We also enable agencies to easily access and report on key financial data in packaged applications such as SAP, Oracle, Lawson, JD Edwards, CGI-AMS's Advantage, and many others.

Information Builders' solutions leverage familiar tools – such as Web browsers, e-mail, and wireless devices – along with industry-leading Excel integration and a wide array of graphic presentation and geographic mapping capabilities. As a result, complex financial information is easily accessible and understandable by users with any level of technical expertise – anywhere, anytime.
