our clients speak volumes

Listen to Guillaume Slee, Brovanture CEO and our customer Katya Tolochkova, FP&A Director at an international education services provider discuss her implementation of Oracle Cloud EPM Planning to learn how this has helped them to drive strategy with Oracle:

• Challenge “belief” with data
• Deliver a Unit4 integration breakthrough
• Understand that FP&A must “Own the System
• Make a governance shift
• Connect people to profit
• Understand true performance & net margins

“The overall project went very well. There were items that we only realised very late in the development because of the rapid learning curve. As a result, we had to make late changes and updates, all of which not helpful in getting the project over the line. I don’t think we would have gotten there without the Brovanture team and their flexibility, experience and knowledge.”
Tyron Dawson, Senior FP&A Analyst, Applegreen

“Having NetSuite already and experience of Oracle and Brovanture in previous organisations, along with doing our due diligence of course, led us to this software solution and implementation partnership which has been absolutely the right choice for Cyncly”
Joe Heathcote, Head of Financial Compliance & Reporting – Group & EMEA, Cyncly

Nick Murray, Oracle EPM Manager at Brovanture client Avon discusses the planning, execution and results of their implementations of Oracle Cloud EPM Solutions (Planning & Consolidation and Close) with Guillaume Slee, Brovanture EPM Services Director.

Guillaume Slee, Brovanture EPM Services Director, discusses the planning, execution and results of their implementations of Oracle Cloud EPM Planning and Oracle Cloud EPM Consolidation and Close with:

• Iain Elvin- Head of Oracle Systems, HM Treasury
• Paul Huntington – Financial Analyst, HM Treasury and
• Sultan Masood – Lead Platform Manager, Oracle, HS2

“Having very successfully worked with Brovanture and NetSuite before they were my obvious go to when I needed to modernise the financial systems at Home from Home Care. Again, it was the right choice. Our project ran very smoothly and we have a great solution that will stand us in good stead for many years to come.” Karen Janes, Financial Director

“When we started this project most of the team had little experience of any solution like Oracle Cloud EPM Consolidation and Close but we were confident Brovanture would be able to both educate and support us on our journey. We were not disappointed. Their expertise and dedication to getting us the best result were there from day 1 and we have now become much more confident and have a solution that delivers just what we need.” Ashley Rogers, Group Financial Controller

“I had not worked with Brovanture before but found them very easy to work with. I felt like they were part of my team and we really benefitted from their extensive experience and guidance. They considered our ideas carefully and often offered and explained alternatives where they felt we could achieve better outcomes. Throughout the project they were always on hand to help when we needed them.” Trevor Farrell, Financial Controller, SteriPack Group

“The way the Brovanture team worked with us was exceptional. They talked through the solution in a way that made it very easy for us to understand and were quick to challenge us on what we wanted, asking questions and suggesting alternatives, which certainly led us to a better result. We very quickly became confident in their ability and their practical knowledge and advice.” Kevin Churchill, Systems Accountant, English Heritage

“When it came to developing our new digital finance strategy for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM), going to a Cloud SaaS solution was the obvious choice as was working with our existing EPM partner, Brovanture. We had developed an excellent working partnership with them, following their implementation and continuing support of our on-premises Hyperion EPM software.” David Williams, Finance Systems Manager, Ted Baker

“Brovanture was key to showing us the right way to go with these solutions. We trusted them to focus on what we really needed and to have the knowledge to help us make it work successfully. We also knew with their help it would get done on-time and on budget!” Michael Stewart, IT Systems Development Manager, Anchor

“We quickly realised we could leave Brovanture to get on with the implementation as they understood our requirements and what the solution could do. We were confident our project was in ‘a safe pair of hands’ and the results have proved us correct” Henry Girgis, Group Financial Controller, Mount Street

“Brovanture engaged with users and stakeholders right across the business. They supported us by helping to identify the right people to get involved. This improved the outcome and helped ownership of the solution. This collaborative approach worked really well especially considering most of the work had to be done remotely due to the Covid-19 pandemic.” Ruth Shervell, Financial Planning Manager, Arqiva

“The Brovanture team delivered and have provided excellent support both during and after the project. Choosing them was the best decision we made and we continue to enjoy a great partnership.” Katie Elder, SVP Finance and Communications

The Brovanture team have become a key delivery partner in our financial reporting business and continue to be a pleasure to work with both on a personal and professional level. The upgrade was delivered on time and under budget, which was a great result for all concerned. Christopher Young, Accounts and Operations Branch Finance Directorate

Brovanture staff are a pleasure to deal with and have demonstrated a superior knowledge of the product and a very good understanding of the Reading Borough Council process. Nothing has been too much trouble. They have been great throughout the entire process. Julie Stringfellow, Systems Manager, Reading Borough Council

We have partnered with Brovanture for a number of years and always been delighted with the level of expertise and service. It was a given we would go to them for our next generation forecasting and planning solution and they have delivered again. It feels like their team are just part of our overall team as they are just as committed as we are to delivering great solutions for the Edrington UK business. Fiona Rodger, Essbase Manager

We were impressed with Brovanture’s knowledge, both from a financial perspective and the systems perspective. They took the time to listen to us and what we wanted to achieve. They were very flexible and helpful, so the decision to use them was an easy one. We needed to achieve a single view of numbers across the business, reduce manual processes and to analyse a variety of scenarios automatically, including automating the cash-flow. Louise Williams – Group Finance Manager, discoverIE
