Mount Anvil

Mount Anvil have been working in partnership with housing associations and local authorities in London for over 30 years and are Central London's estate transformation specialists.

The Challenge

Mount Anvil previously prepared the monthly forecast and board pack in Excel. The process was highly manual, time intensive, prone to error, and limited in analytical capability. They needed a consolidated view of company performance without having to rely on complex linkages across multiple spreadsheets so as to avoid broken formulas and inconsistencies between reports.

The Solution

•    Native connectors into Salesforce and Business Central for direct, reliable data integration. 
•    User friendly interface for data entry and real time reporting. 
•    Coaching and knowledge transfer to ensure the finance team became fully self-sufficient. 
•    Dynamic templates and reports that update automatically as data changes.

Solution Benefits

Speed

Significantly reduced the time required to prepare standalone scheme reports and the consolidated board pack, allowing the team to spend more time on analysis and insight rather than manual preparation.

Automatic Population and Consolidation

Once a figure is entered, it automatically flows through all relevant reports, including automatically calculating Mount Anvil’s share of profit. This removes the need for manual copy-and-paste and ensures consistent, error-free reporting.

Single version of the truth 

All reports draw from a single data source, ensuring that figures quoted across multiple reports are fully consistent and reliable.

Working With InfoCat

“InfoCat’s install and setup of the Vena Solutions software was an extremely smooth process with minimal disruption. The solution has streamlined our monthly forecasting and consolidation process.”
