Event Type 2: 2025

Grow your business with better financial reporting, budgeting and forecasting

Growing any organisation is hard, especially in the current political and economic climate. It gets a whole lot harder without accurate financial information and good budgeting and forecasting processes to keep your finances and plans on track.

This is where modern cloud based Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) solutions come into play. They provide ‘across the organisation’ solutions that deliver:

• Greater accuracy and understanding of the financial numbers – both actual and planned
• Increased collaboration, involvement and ownership of budgets, forecasts and therefore outcomes
• Leveraging of wider operational knowledge to create more realistic and accurate plans and budgets
• Reduction in the reputational risk of compliance issues along with greater confidence the organisation will deliver on its plans and forecasts
• Simple acquisition and fast time to value with, no client IT set-up, fast provision and expert implementation support

To find out more on how EPM can help your organisation grow and prosper join us and our client SteriPack for a morning event on the 29^th April 2025 at the Oracle office Eastpoint, Dublin.

Oracle Cloud EPM Monthly Release Update (1 hour webinar)

Each month Oracle Cloud EPM is updated with a new release. This is first done for clients’ test environments and then later in the month for their production environments. Once the test environment has been updated Brovanture’s Oracle Certified consultants extensively review and test the new release to fully understand the new release and any implications this may have for our supported clients. Our research and subsequent explanations go beyond the notes provided by Oracle with each release.

Join us for our monthly, one-hour webinars for all users of Oracle Cloud EPM to enable them to fully understand the implications and opportunities presented by every new release.

This webinar is open to all – you do not have to be a Brovanture client to attend.

Make Every Penny Count with Better Reporting, Budgeting and Forecasting

We don’t have to tell you that UK public sector budgets are tight and are only likely to get tighter!

What we can do is provide the tools to ensure you can make every penny count. In fact, we have doing this for years with many public sector organisations including HM Treasury and HS2 who are going to join us for this webinar. They will discuss what they have achieved by implementing new enterprise performance management (EPM) solutions to support their reporting, budgeting and forecasting

Helping organisations through the initial budgeting process is only the beginning. Perhaps even more important is managing budgets once underway. Constant changes and unexpected events result in the need for adjustments, reallocation (virements) and collaboration to keep on track. This is where many of the benefits of cloud enterprise performance management solutions really come into play.

• Keeping the budget up-to-date and relevant during the entire budgeting period
• Providing greater accuracy and timely understanding of the financial numbers – both actual and planned
• Increasing collaboration, involvement and ownership of budgets, forecasts and therefore delivering better outcomes
• Leveraging of wider operational knowledge to deliver more realistic and accurate plans and budgets
• Reducing errors to give greater confidence the organisation will deliver on its plans and forecasts
• Cloud EPM enables simple acquisition and fast time to value with, no client IT set-up, fast provision and expert implementation support

To find out more on how EPM can help your organisation make every penny count, join us and our clients HS2 and HM Treasury for a one hour webinar at 10:00 on the 21st May 2025.

Oracle Cloud EPM Consolidation and Close – Delivering a Faster Close (1 hour webinar)

A fast financial close has long been a target for finance and accounting organisations. It is seen as a sign of a well-run financial department and overall business.
