WHO WE ARE

Strategy, Flexibility and Change

We are an IT consultancy firm with a long history of developing and maintaining Financial Consolidation and Planning solutions for major enterprises.

As both an IBM and SAP Business Partner with over 20 years of experience in the industry, and a depth and breadth of skills ranging from Chartered Accountants to IT technical resources.  Bold Shore is able to deliver solutions that meet the financial planning needs of its clients.

  • Extensive experience with proven track-record
  • Develop, maintain and support IBM Cognos TM, SAP ERP, SAP HANA S/4 and SAP BW systems throughout their life cycle

Bold Shore can help your Organisation leverage your SAP ERP, BW or HANA S/4 investment by providing highly experienced consultants that:

  • Understand your requirements
  • Configure the software to suit your business process needs
  • Optimise your real time reporting
  • Provide training and support

Bold Shore can help your Organisation by leveraging technology to overcome typical Budgeting and Forecasting (B&F) pitfalls and focus on value add activities through:

  • Automatic consolidation of Financial data

  • Integrated security profile management

  • Centralised control and auditability

  • Higher frequency planning cycles (rolling monthly forecasts)

  • Automatic driver based calculations (allocations and costs drivers)

  • Flexibility to choose top-down or bottom-up approaches

  • Workflow management to minimise sending files through emails

Utilising corporate or enterprise budgeting software, and replacing legacy spreadsheets will free up senior staff to do their job, improve the allocation of resources, and drive business profitability.
