What We Do

IBM Cognos Controller

Full financial consolidation and close management - in a solution owned by the office of finance.

Overview

Automate your consolidation, close and report process

If your company has subsidiaries or associates, then group accounting or consolidation is a necessary part of your monthly accounting process.

Unfortunately, it’s never easy.

Intricate eliminations, challenging minority interest calculations and a web of spreadsheets can often leave you feeling overwhelmed.

Imagine instead, having more time to interact with your business adding value, rather than collecting and processing data and maintaining spreadsheets.

That can become a reality with IBM Cognos Controller.

It automates and streamlines consolidation in a single, central application, empowering your finance team to flex and respond to varied reporting requests.

With Cognos Controller, you can wave goodbye to manual processes and produce consolidated financials for management and statutory reporting with ease.
