Case Study

Technology Company Set to Scale Business Quickly with NetSuite

Technology company partnered with our NetSuite team to streamline billing, revenue recognition, and financial operations. The implementation improved efficiency, strengthened financial controls, and reduced month-end close time by 25% within two months of going live.

The Challenge

Despite its success in the AP automation market, the company relied heavily on QuickBooks and numerous Excel-based processes to manage financial operations. Manual billing calculations, revenue recognition activities, and spreadsheet-driven workflows created inefficiencies and limited the company’s ability to scale.

Key challenges included:

  • Reliance on manual billing and financial processes
  • Extensive use of spreadsheets for critical business functions
  • Complex usage-based billing requirements
  • Need for automated revenue recognition processes
  • Limited internal resources to manage a large-scale ERP implementation
  • Requirement for a scalable platform to support future growth

The Solution

Design and implementation of a tailored NetSuite solution aligned with the company’s unique billing and revenue management requirements.
    The engagement included:

    • Assessment of business processes and transaction requirements
    • Development of a customized NetSuite implementation roadmap
    • Design of an automated billing and revenue recognition solution
    • Configuration, testing, and deployment of NetSuite
    • Process optimization and user adoption support
    • Integration of billing workflows and Advanced Revenue Management capabilities

The Result

The implementation provided a foundation for operational scalability while significantly improving financial processes and controls.

Results included:

  • Automated billing and revenue recognition workflows
  • Elimination of numerous spreadsheet-based processes
  • Establishment of NetSuite as the central system of record for financial data
  • Improved visibility and control over financial operations
  • Enhanced efficiency across billing and accounting functions
  • Reduction in month-end close time by 25% within the first two months following go-live
