I highly recommend Simpson Associates to other local government authorities. Their team worked in partnership with us to deliver a data platform in Azure for our Revenue and Benefits function, they also delivered Power BI training across the Council and are now working with us on constructing our Council wide data strategy. Simpson Associates anticipated our needs throughout the project, followed through on their promises and were always concise in their communication. It’s great to work with such a professional and data driven team.

Planning, budgeting and Forecasting

Simpson Associates has experience of working with finance teams in the public sector. Some still spend an inordinate amount of time in manual, spreadsheet-based processes – collecting, consolidating and validating data. Because of that, they are often unable to deliver plans, budgets, forecasts, reports, and value-added analyses without working under significant time pressures. The net result of these pressures can be budgets or re-forecasts being submitted without the level of scrutiny and verification required.

• Reduce the time, effort, complexity and potential errors introduced by manual Excel-based financial planning processes
