for a good reason. They are a way to automate work almost effortlessly so that repetitive and boring tasks get done with the least amount of effort on the part of the operator. In business, agents can be a boon for customer satisfaction and a way to improve worker productivity. They are alluring, with an almost unlimited number of potential use cases. However, as currently described, general-purpose agents and chatbots can’t reliably perform many important business processes that involve collaboration in a complex set of iterative steps. For this, another form of agentic artificial intelligence-assisted process management, which I’m calling generative automation, is necessary and often delivered as off-the-shelf functionality in business software. It’s generative because it is constantly refining itself to reflect real-world business conditions and practices. Like other agent systems, generative automation applies machine learning in a way that mimics how humans behave based on observed states and their context to direct the actions that follow. Rather than serving as a general-purpose tool, generative automation is an application-specific design technique that makes it a more practical and sustainable approach to using augmented intelligence in computer-aided process execution. Generative automation is only a concept now, but I assert that by 2028, more than one-third of business applications will include some form of it to shorten process cycles, increasing productivity, organizational agility and customer satisfaction. AI agents can easily automate relatively short, repetitive tasks, enhancing finite condition decision-making and providing personalized assistance across various business functions. Chatbots and personal assistants are increasingly able to improve individual productivity and, by eliminating dull, repetitive work, promote individual satisfaction. What I am calling generative automation is something new. It allows for far more complex coordination and communication between multiple people in completing time-consuming processes managed in an application. Importantly, it does so without extensive human programming, and it enables the process to evolve in line with business conditions and practices. The software continuously molds itself to how work needs to be done rather than requiring organizations to adapt to how the application is designed. Generative automation is best described as augmented intelligence because, by using machine learning techniques applied to process mining methods, it enables systems to recognize when a particular step in a task can be performed automatically with little or no risk of a misstep or presents options for decisions or next steps when certainty falls below a defined acceptable threshold. The human effort and time required to complete a business process is the function of the interventions needed and lags created by serial motions within a process, including contact-and-response, review, approval and execution. Generative automation collapses or eliminates lags by its ability to convert these to concurrent actions or fully automate some or all steps depending on the context. By significantly compressing the time between steps in a collaborative process, this type of software can shorten cycles in cases where the degree of complexity in human interactions and their required coordination is relatively high. Generative automation could be preferable to agents for handling collaborative, iterative processes with complex, non-linear decision nodes, especially where the actors and the next steps in a process are defined by conditions and context that evolve over time. For example, many tasks in the accounting close follow iterative paths involving multiple participants, as do supply chain management events where a delivery delay can set up a complex choreography of collaborative decision-making to deal with the delay, preferably in a relatively optimal fashion. In theory, and described at a high level, any agentic system can do almost anything. But, like most software, the devil is in the details. A generative automation approach minimizes the cost and effort required to design and maintain a reliable and scalable automation system within a business application. Such a system can never pretend to be autonomous. It must be able to defer to human decision-making and action when conditions lack sufficient certainty. It must be able to continuously learn from these interventions with a deep understanding of the context of the situation. Generative automation is built on process mining, which applies algorithms to computer event log data to identify trends, patterns and details of how a process unfolds. Process mining analyzes event data from the logs of software applications to understand how processes are designed to be performed and how they are actually performed. Typically, the technology will show that there are many variations in how a process unfolds and the context in which those permutations occur. The results can be used to uncover the source of bottlenecks, delays, unseen risks and unnecessary workloads that, in turn, allows organizations to institute improvements. You can gain a deeper understanding of process mining from this analyst perspective by my colleague, David Menninger. Process mining also provides the necessary data to train generative automation models, applying machine learning to develop and train process workflows to replicate and optimize how tasks are performed. ML is a subfield of artificial intelligence that uses technology to process information similarly to how humans do. This includes improving accuracy as more data is processed in ongoing model training cycles. Just as generative AI can replicate many sophisticated human tasks, generative automation replicates the condition and evolution of how repetitive work is performed in enterprises. Generative automation guides workflows where the routing, roles and responsibilities are determined by the context of the existing conditions at this node of a process. The context is defined by how the process is typically performed but is mindful of the chain of events and conditions leading up to the current node in the process. The ability to train these generative workflows is built around process mining and analysis rather than some idealized definition of a process because this method incorporates the reality that business processes are not always performed as planned. Even after process mining and analysis eliminate unnecessary and unproductive variations, some variations will remain, especially for complex interactive activities. Moreover, businesses evolve to address change, so continuous training of generative automation business process models is necessary. Generative automation’s core use cases cover conditions under which applying machine learning techniques to automate and assist in executing complex, interactive processes, organizations can gain productivity or compress decision-execution cycles. It complements the power of general-purpose agents for use cases where these cannot handle the complexities or are not adaptable enough. Although, in theory, generative automation can be applied anywhere, the most practical application is within enterprise applications because this simplifies the use of process mining. As is the case for all AI-led efforts, accurate, consistent and timely data is essential. When process mining is used across platforms or applications, it faces the challenge of having to deal with incompatible and incomplete processes. Omissions and errors in system logs will create inaccurate process maps, especially in missing steps or tracking the time it takes to complete a process. Narrowing the scope to a single platform or software application minimizes the challenges posed by third-party process mining and analysis software because it simplifies the task of creating and continuously training process execution models. This sort of application-specific process mining can deal with data quality issues because the high-quality, consistent and comprehensive event logs are an integral part of the software, eliminating problems with siloed data, inconsistent data formats and incomplete records. The main drawback of this approach is that it is limited to processes executed within the specific application, but that isn’t the point. Generative automation is just a concept now, but application software providers should investigate how to apply it to enable software to adapt and optimize processes in enterprises. Like other forms of AI and generative AI, generative automation gives business applications providers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to differentiate offerings in mature markets.

Migrating to AI-Enabled Applications", "mainEntityOfPage": "https://blog.isg-research.net/should-i-stay-or-go-migrating-to-ai-enabled-applications", "datePublished": "15/10/2024", "dateModified": "15/10/2024", "articleBody": "Artificial intelligence-enabled business applications have advanced considerably over the past year as software providers have added a steady stream of capabilities. This includes customer facing, financial, supply chain and workforce software. ISG Research asserts that by 2027, almost all providers of business applications will use some form of generative AI to enhance capabilities and functionality to remain competitive. However, many enterprises have existing on-premises applications that, in most cases, will not get AI-enablement from the software provider. Those customers should be evaluating if, when and how they will tap into the benefits that AI and GenAI can provide to improve operational and financial performance. They have three choices: do nothing, AI-enable existing software or migrate to a cloud-based AI-enabled application. There’s no end to the potential use cases for AI and GenAI, which has led to the perception that these are more hype than reality. On the contrary, there is a long and lengthening list of existing and cost-effective ways business application providers are already using the technology, including: Agents for task automation Accelerating forecasting and planning while reducing bias Automating analytics production to enable more time for analysis and thought Providing task supervision to spot data and information input errors Adding recommendations to facilitate decision-making Automating commentary to enhance reporting Transcription and summarization Knowledge management Worker skills assessment Dynamic route optimization Creating tailored offers and pricing Nonetheless, at this stage of evolution in AI and GenAI, the “do nothing” option can be attractive for those with on-premises software. Since the ability to realize grandiose GenAI use cases can seem way out in the future, and the above list of capabilities can appear trivial, many perceive the chatter about AI as hype with few proof points. With a perception of limited or no benefit, not taking any action can appear attractive and may be the right choice. Doing so poses no chance of errors of commission, and in that respect, it appears less risky, posing no threat of disrupting operations and requiring no incremental financial commitment. Most importantly, doing nothing may have a better cost/benefit ratio. At the same time, doing nothing imposes an opportunity cost because AI and GenAI enablement can improve an organization’s competitiveness and productivity as well as reduce costs throughout an enterprise. Almost always, it takes time for organizations to absorb new technology, so earlier adopters can exploit the benefit of having addressed the people and process challenges sooner and gain a competitive advantage, greater profitability, access to talent and other benefits. This was the case with personal computers in the 1980s and the internet in the 1990s. Waiting too long to start means risking having to play catch-up. Weighing the pros and cons of standing pat versus taking action with respect to AI and GenAI should be an ongoing exercise because the technology is evolving rapidly, and competitive business conditions are continually transforming. There are two basic alternatives to doing nothing: AI-enabling the legacy on-premises software or migrating to an AI-enabled cloud application. Choosing between the two may not be straightforward, and the best choice for an enterprise depends on facts and circumstances. AI-enabling on-premises software is preferable where there is some combination of incurring less disruption to operations, faster time to value, lower risk of failure and lower total cost of ownership relative to migrating to the cloud. At the same time, because such AI-enablement is a custom project, there are risks. ISG Research’s 2024 AI Study identified several that apply, including a lack of AI experience and skills, a lack of a holistic company-wide vision, which can make it difficult to create a business case for such a project, the challenge of keeping up with AI technology and the resulting impact on AI performance and quality. Nonetheless, the reasons for taking this approach can be compelling. Choosing to migrate to AI-enabled cloud software may be the better choice if an enterprise can secure more capabilities sooner. This is possible because the application already has significant AI-enabled capabilities, and the provider’s pace of development can be faster than an internal effort. Enterprises can achieve faster time to value by migrating to an application in the cloud because the software is off-the-shelf rather than a project. And because the software can be evaluated before investing, there is lower project risk. Moreover, after implementation, the provider handles the maintenance of the application, reducing the burden on the IT department. However, there can be downsides to this approach if the migration significantly disrupts internal operations or poses significant change-management challenges. The TCO to value ratio also may be unfavorable compared to AI-enabling an existing application or doing nothing. With respect to the benefits side of the equation, ISG Research recently quantified attitudes around spend in our Market Lens AI Study, which asked participants how much more they would be willing to pay for AI capabilities for various purposes. The research provides insight into how enterprises currently expect to gain value from AI and, therefore, the propensity to pay for AI capability in applications. The research finds the greatest inclination to spend is in sales performance management, which I interpret to mean that the participants see this area as having the highest potential to generate profit through gains in sales productivity and, therefore, increase revenue. The next five include supply chain management (to cut costs), treasury and risk management (for more accurate cash-flow forecasts, to reduce the risk of fraud and credit losses as well as cut the cost of regulatory compliance), IT service management (to cut costs), analytics and business intelligence (to gain productivity) as well as procurement (cut costs). In other words, enterprises are willing to pay for productivity gains that clearly generate revenue and easily achieve cost savings or reduce risk. Those offerings that promote productivity without a direct connection to increased revenue or cost savings, or where the cost savings are perceived to be limited or difficult to achieve, will not make the cut until investments become economically attractive. As AI and GenAI continue to evolve from the bright, shiny object status to a practical business tool, executives are finding ways to apply the technology. Organizations with on-premises applications must have a strategy and process for assessing how to take advantage of AI technology for that application domain. Applying a knowledgeable, disciplined cost-benefit analysis for each of the three options on an ongoing basis is essential.

CFOs of midsize enterprises should take a look at it because it supports a more effective approach to finance and accounting operations in growing companies. It facilitates the transition of organizations that can no longer make do with work-arounds of existing systems to those with formal, controlled core processes that can be completed faster with reduced risk. The platform performs financial consolidation, account reconciliation and intercompany financial operations, as well as enterprise-wide financial planning, budgeting and analysis and reporting. Prophix One has a data store that automatically integrates data from multiple systems of record to provide a single authoritative source of timely and consistent data for use across multiple processes. This type of data store is essential for supporting artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), which are growing in importance as a means of automating foundational analytical tasks, giving financial analysts more time to go deeper into the numbers to provide insights based on their experience and business knowledge. The software brings financial management into the 21st century, enabling the application of continuous accounting concepts as well as integrated business planning (IBP) to enhance staff productivity and contribute to better performance across an enterprise, all in an affordable package for most midsize enterprises. Companies are discovering the value of rapid planning and budgeting cycles to support critical decision-making in an uncertain environment. These days, expectations for the future can change significantly on a daily or weekly basis, so companies can benefit from making their planning and budgeting processes faster, easier, more relevant, more strategic, more agile and more accurate. Executives and managers must be able to quickly explore different scenarios and outcomes to adapt quickly when opportunities and challenges arise. Decades ago, I coined the term “integrated business planning” to describe a high-participation, collaborative, action-oriented approach to planning and budgeting that allows each business unit to plan their operations and finances in a way that best suits their needs while giving executives an immediate unified view of the entire enterprise. IBP software enables executives to manage ahead of any future event, connecting the tactical trees to the strategic forest. Prophix was among the first to offer a cloud budgeting and planning platform that enables midsize organizations to connect all their planning activities to simplify the process of collecting and consolidating data from different business units into a company-wide view. Our Business Planning Benchmark Research shows that 66% of companies that directly link planning information have planning processes that work well or very well. By comparison, only 40% of companies that copy data from individual plans, and only 25% where there is little or no connection between plans, say their processes work well or very well. IBP uses technologies such as a unified data environment, workflows and advanced analytic technologies to make planning and budgeting processes more agile and increase their business value. And IBP can make budgeting easier for business unit managers while providing better insight into their operating performance. The software makes updating forecasts and plans faster and easier, and can generate pro-forma balance sheets and cash flow forecasts to provide better financial intelligence to senior executives and boards of directors. Closing the books is the process of finalizing and summarizing the financial activities of a business for a specific accounting period. It involves completing various tasks to ensure that all revenue, expenses, and other financial transactions are properly recorded, accounts are balanced, and financial statements are prepared. Finance executives have focused on using technology to enhance the productivity (not just the efficiency) of their staff to address the need for resiliency and to deal with a shortage of skilled accountants. This shortage is causing executives to take a fresh look at software that manages the full close-consolidate-report cycle end to end. Prophix also enables enhanced collaboration between staff working remotely and across multiple locations. One important objective is to manage this portion of the accounting calendar as a controlled, repeatable process, which allows enterprises to finish sooner. ISG Research asserts that by 2027, two-thirds of finance and accounting departments will improve their use of readily available technology to close quarterly books within six business days, up from one-half that can do it today. Prophix’s consolidation system is designed specifically for midsize companies that have evolved to the point where they can no longer rely on manual, spreadsheet-based financial processes. The increased complexities of their operations and financial systems demand the more sophisticated capabilities of dedicated software. These include multi-currency management, journal entry creation, data validation and support for sub-consolidation routines. The application creates fully customizable, detailed audit reports to promote transparency and expedite internal and external audit work. Extensive reporting facilities speed the creation of financial statements at any level of detail. In addition, the platform automates the intercompany reconciliations process, enabling enterprises to replace manual transaction-level matching of intercompany sales and purchases. Automation makes the staff more productive, enhances governance, control and auditability of this process and can contribute to shortening the accounting close. A key requirement for a finance and accounting software platform is having a dedicated data store that automatically collects data from all systems and sources needed to support planning, budgeting, consolidation, close management and reporting. In addition to all of an enterprise’s ERP systems, data might be collected from CRM, sales and operations software. This does away with the need for analysts to repeatedly perform data extraction, enrichment or transformation motions from the required source systems, and all but eliminates the substantial amount of time they currently spend on data preparation. Our Analytics and Data Benchmark Research finds that individuals devote a considerable portion of their time preparing data for analysis and reviewing it for quality and consistency issues, activities that are no longer necessary when a platform data store is available. Such a repository also supports the ML necessary for training AI models, especially those used for forecasting and predictive analytics. The need to support ML will increase significantly over the next three years as all providers of software designed for finance organizations will have incorporated some AI capabilities to reduce workloads and improve performance. Other features of the platform include support for Microsoft Power BI, which gives enterprises with related existing skills and systems a connector that allows them to easily obtain the advantages of this business intelligence (BI) system. The Microsoft 365 add-in speeds the creation of board books and highly formatted PowerPoint presentations that include up-to-the-minute data. Version control is often an issue, as organizations typically go through multiple updates and revisions in preparing periodic reports. Prophix One ensures that people are working with the current version that incorporates up-to-date live data while having the ability to compare with earlier ones. In addition, those who are most productive in Excel are able to create and link controlled spreadsheet models with the platform to perform sophisticated analyses. The add-in also allows organizations that prefer budget contributions in spreadsheets to continue using them for that purpose while also connecting them to a dedicated IBP application. I recommend that CFOs, controllers and heads of financial planning and analysis in midsize companies assess their current operations to identify opportunities to improve the productivity and working environment for their staff. Both are necessary for attracting and retaining the best talent, especially in a tight market for accountants and analysts. Our research has consistently shown that software is essential to achieving better performance in the department. As they go through the process of identifying potential application providers, I recommend that they include Prophix One in their assessment.

The software handles financial close and consolidation, planning and budgeting, analysis and reporting. OneStream recently held its annual user conference, Splash, in Las Vegas. In attending this meeting, my focus was on progress the company has made in the areas of predictive artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI (GenAI) over the past year, since the technology will be the greatest source of product differentiation in what has been a mature software category through the end of the decade. AI and GenAI became a major theme in business software providers’ customer events beginning in 2023, although OneStream has been investing in AI and machine learning (ML) for years. Office of Finance software providers’ focus on AI and GenAI at these events is driven by the opportunity that the technology presents for differentiation in what otherwise is a highly commoditized and mature market, as well as to encourage customer adoption in a risk-averse and technology-backward buying community. ISG Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, almost all providers of software designed for finance organizations will incorporate AI capabilities to reduce workloads and improve performance. Increasingly, providers of software aimed at the Office of Finance will differentiate offerings by the capabilities and accuracy of AI functionality. The main objective of AI-enhanced software is to have the applications do more low-value work so people can contribute more. Organizations will adopt this technology to attract and retain the best talent because there’s more time for workers to focus on tasks that require their expertise, experience and judgment. At Splash, OneStream highlighted advances in its Sensible AI portfolio. Even before ChatGPT created AI frenzy, Ventana Research selected OneStream Sensible ML for our Office of Finance Digital Innovation Award in 2022, which at the time reflected our assessment of its potential to significantly contribute to the improved performance of an organization. OneStream has continued to enhance its AI offerings, further refining Sensible ML’s ability to improve forecast accuracy and accelerate planning cycles, enabling enterprises to build agility into their responses to evolving business conditions. Its Sensible GenAI can assist in analysis and reporting processes, saving time in handling basic chores so that business analysts have more time to use their experience and expertise to provide deeper insights and recommendations. Rubix allows users to use natural language processing (NLP) to interact with and analyze data. Executives and managers can use this to do their own data exploration, increasing the business value of planning. The enterprise’s future direction is introducing more automated narrative reporting as well as the ability to perform planning driver analysis. Both Sensible ML and GenAI are supported by the Sensible AI library of built-in techniques. For example, an anomaly detector that, when applied to planning and analysis, highlights exceptions to improve accuracy or where breaks in trends are happening. In consolidation and close, the technology speeds up, and increases the accuracy of, account reconciliations and transaction matching. All of this is a great start with considerable promise. Yet, decades of experience with software and technology have taught me that we have yet to sort out all of the snags that enterprises and software providers are likely to encounter over the next few years. That noted, it's worth repeating that most of the early gains in productivity from the use of AI and GenAI embedded in business applications will be bottom-up and small scale in nature. This gets little attention because there are no stunning headlines to be had from small-scale gradual improvements. And the idea that people will save five minutes here and 15 minutes there isn’t exciting—except to those millions of people who are doing the work today. AI, both predictive and generative, will be an increasingly important feature of business software through the end of this decade, but it’s necessary for buyers and users of the technology to understand what a particular provider’s software can and cannot do. Especially for larger organizations, the ability of the software architecture to support high-volume, model training operations as well as its data orchestration and management will define how well and how completely the software will provide the scope and performance of AI and GenAI features claimed in its applications. My key takeaways from what the company demonstrated at Splash are its early technical leadership in embedding AI in its software and its ability to illustrate practical, high-value, low-risk applications of AI in the Office of Finance. Despite the promise of AI, two issues are likely to challenge adoption of the technology. One is cost, which will test the willingness of CFOs to invest, while the other is risk aversion. ISG asked participants in its AI Buyer Behavior Study how much more they would be willing to spend on AI capabilities. The research provides insight into how enterprises currently expect to gain value from using AI and, therefore, their propensity to pay for AI capability in applications. The research finds the greatest inclination to spend is in sales performance management, which I interpret to mean that the participants see this area as having the greatest potential to generate profit through gains in sales productivity and therefore greater revenue. Those offerings that promote productivity without a direct connection to higher revenue or cost savings, or where the cost savings are perceived to be limited or difficult to achieve, will not make the cut. Having attended multiple software company events over the past year, there’s a clear indication that basic AI features will be included at no additional cost in subscription fees because the incremental cost to the provider is relatively small. Features that require expensive compute fees, such as a co-pilot, are likely to result is those costs being passed along. On risk aversion, one characteristic of AI is the ability to start small and build confidence over time. The ability of a software provider to demonstrate customer success will be important to sales and adoption of the technology. One of the customer-led sessions on AI provided perspectives from one of the largest corporations in the world as well as a midsize services company. The former had more data scientists on staff than the latter had in its entire FP&A organization. When asked by the moderator for their advice to the audience, the midsize company replied, “Just do it,” which was echoed by the other. Both pointed to success beginning on a small scale, with experimentation to discover what works and what doesn’t. The midsize enterprise was able to increase its forecast accuracy in its staffing requirements, increasing the frequency of forecasts to adjust faster to conditions, increase the granularity with which it was forecasting and increase the accuracy of those projections, enabling it to save money by having the right people at the right place at the right time. The large company is finding value in having a purpose built-for-finance tool, augmenting its own efforts in mining its vast datasets to find opportunities. Beyond the realm of AI, there were several important announcements related to improving capabilities and performance. Although OneStream’s software is highly adaptable to the needs of enterprises, many buyers prioritize achieving a rapid time to value. The company’s CPM Express offering is designed to simplify and accelerate deployment of the system in a relatively generic configuration. Dynamic Cube Services enable analysts to integrate internal and external data without having to load data, which accelerates their ability to deliver better informed insights that drive more agile decision-making. The company has been improving its user experience with a modern browser experience that streamlines user interactions across browsers including Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome and Safari. Its Power BI Connector is especially useful for the many organizations that use that software as a foundation for reporting and analysis. To support a growing trend in enterprise software, Genesis provides a no-code framework so that power users can translate their experience and expertise into working applications to enhance the planning, accounting close, analysis and reporting functions in the department. OneStream Splash also featured sessions on enhancements to its core financial consolidation offering. Our recently released Financial Consolidation Buyers Guide classified OneStream as Exemplary, receiving an overall grade of A- with an 85.4% performance. OneStream was designated a Leader overall, in Product Experience and in Customer Experience. OneStream’s best grouped results came in Customer Experience with an 87.8% performance and an A grade, due in part to its A in Validation. In Product Experience, OneStream received an A- grade, with an 84.6% performance due to its 91.4% performance in Manageability. OneStream was designated a Leader in six of seven categories, including Adaptability, Capability, Manageability, Reliability, TCO/ROI and Validation. I recommend that organizations looking for software for forecasting, planning, budgeting or managing the close, consolidate and report cycle (or both) include OneStream on the list of providers for consideration.

The Financial Consolidation and Close: ISG and Ventana Research Buyers Guide is the distillation of a year of market and product research by ISG and Ventana Research. The financial records of an enterprise must be periodically reviewed and summarized to create financial statements that inform executives and interested third parties of the organization’s financial condition and performance. A consolidation of the financial records and other departmental close processes involves an intricate set of repeated processes that must be performed in a prescribed order and fashion. Enterprise software enables finance and accounting departments to be more productive throughout the close by automating calculations, coordinating the execution of processes and facilitating communication among participants. The desire to make the department more productive and resilient has led to increased investment in technology to assist in performing the full consolidate and close cycle. The desire to make the department more productive and resilient has led to increased investment in technology to assist in performing the full consolidate and close cycle. This guide examines software that manage the financial consolidation process as well as assists in managing other accounting close processes. ISG Research defines consolidation software as an application that manages the financial consolidation process in conformance with accounting standards for enterprises with complex requirements. All accounting or ERP systems will perform a statutory consolidation of the accounts handled in that system using the generally accepted accounting principles of that parent company. But this approach is inadequate for enterprises that, for example, have accounting systems from multiple providers or other complicating factors that necessitate a separate system. We define close management software as applications that support the timely and efficient completion of close cycle tasks, especially automating reconciliations and performing process management functions. Consolidation is necessary when an organization has multiple legal entities, subsidiaries, joint ventures or other forms of ownership or control of operating units. The financial consolidation process involves eliminating intercompany transactions and balances to provide a comprehensive and accurate view of the organization’s financial condition and performance. The consolidation process and its methods are tightly prescribed by financial accounting authorities and can be quite complex. However, consolidation is only part of the financial or accounting close, which is the process of finalizing a company's financial statements at the end of an accounting period, such as a month, quarter or year. During the financial close, all financial transactions are reconciled, reviewed and adjusted as needed to prepare the financial statements. These include the balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and the statement of shareholders’ equity. This process is essential for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of financial reporting, and it is often a critical step in meeting regulatory requirements and providing stakeholders with a clear picture of the company's financial performance. In all but the smallest enterprises, consolidation and close processes require coordination and collaboration. Software assists in ensuring that steps in the processes are handled completely and correctly, collaboration is assisted by direct communications, documents and notations by participants are easily accessed and necessary reviews and sign-offs are performed. Those managing the process are assisted in being able to monitor progress and provide alerts when issues arise. Consolidation and close management software has improved, incorporating real-time integration with source systems. This is important because of the myriad last-minute adjustments and corrections that take place during the consolidation process. Systems now offer more effective collaboration features to smooth the process and ensure resiliency, including secure data sharing as well as centralized document storage for working papers and supporting evidence. For enterprises with especially complex structures and reporting requirements, the ability to consolidate using multiple accounting standards at different levels and branches of the corporate hierarchy can be useful. Another factor driving the adoption of dedicated software is the desire to shorten the accounting close. The accounting or financial close is the process of finalizing a company's financial statements at the end of an accounting period, such as a month, quarter or year. During the financial close, all financial transactions are reviewed and adjusted, and the financial statements are prepared, including the balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and the statement of shareholders’ equity. This process is important for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of financial reporting, and it is often a critical step in meeting regulatory requirements and providing stakeholders with a clear picture of the company's financial performance. ISG-Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, one-half of midsize and larger enterprises will use close management software to speed the close and achieve greater control of the process. There has been agreement that organizations should complete the accounting close within a business week. Workflow automation is especially useful in handling the close-consolidate-report cycle, specifically to manage the process in a hybrid working environment and for organizations that span the globe. As with any workflow-enabled process, administrators spend far less time ensuring individuals have started or completed their tasks, hand-offs are smoother and, where reviews and approvals are required, these events are recorded and easily accessed by external and internal auditors and support assertions by executives that internal controls and procedures have been followed. In accounting, the term reconciliations refers to any process that compares two sets of records to ensure their accuracy and consistency—an inherent component of the double-entry framework. This typically involves comparing financial transactions or balances from different sources, such as bank statements versus accounting records or intercompany transactions between different subsidiaries of a company. The main objective is to ensure that the books balance by identifying and resolving discrepancies between two sets of records, ensuring that the accounting data is accurate. Automating reconciliations, especially intercompany transactions, makes the staff more productive and makes the department a more attractive place to work. Workflow-enabled systems also contribute to a smoother close because consolidating and closing the books should be almost exactly the same from one period to the next, including processes for handling exceptions and unexpected events and managing the close calendar. With workflow, the controller and chief accounting officer can spend less time on administration while having greater situational awareness and control. It’s likely that advances provided by artificial intelligence (AI) and even generative AI (GenAI) will make dedicated consolidation and close software an even more compelling choice. Today’s technology can help finance and accounting executives make their departments more productive in ways that improve the working environment and make it possible for them to attract and retain the best talent in a resource-constrained environment. It’s likely that advances provided by artificial intelligence (AI) and even generative AI (GenAI) will make dedicated consolidation and close software an even more compelling choice, especially in a time of growing complexity in accounting standards and tax laws. While accounting relies on doing the same things consistently, how they are done is always evolving because of legal and regulatory changes as well as the constant change in how accounting principles are reflected in processes. A continuous improvement mindset is necessary to have the adaptability and resilience to remain productive. Software designed to assist in managing the accounting close is a necessary tool for financial executives. This research-based index evaluates the full business and information technology value of financial consolidation and close software offerings. I encourage you to learn more about our Buyers Guide and its effectiveness as a provider selection and RFI/RFP tool. We urge organizations to do a thorough job of evaluating financial consolidation and close offerings in this Buyers Guide as both the results of our in-depth analysis of these software providers and as an evaluation methodology. The Buyers Guide can be used to evaluate existing suppliers, plus provides evaluation criteria for new projects. Using it can shorten the cycle time for an RFP and the definition of an RFI.

The overall performance chart provides a visual representation of how providers rate across product and customer experience. Software providers with products scoring higher in a weighted rating of the five product experience categories place farther to the right. The combination of ratings for the two customer experience categories determines their placement on the vertical axis. As a result, providers that place closer to the upper-right are “exemplary” and rated higher than those closer to the lower-left and identified as providers of “merit.” Software providers that excelled at customer experience over product experience have an “assurance” rating, and those excelling instead in product experience have an “innovative” rating. Note that close provider scores should not be taken to imply that the packages evaluated are functionally identical or equally well-suited for use by every enterprise or process. Although there is a high degree of commonality in how organizations handle financial consolidation and close, there are many idiosyncrasies and differences that can make one provider’s offering a better fit than another. Our firm has made every effort to encompass in this Buyers Guide the overall product and customer experience from our financial consolidation and close blueprint, which we believe reflects what a well-crafted RFP should contain. Even so, there may be additional areas that affect which software provider and products best fit an enterprise’s particular requirements. Therefore, while this research is complete as it stands, utilizing it in your own organizational context is critical to ensure that products deliver the highest level of support for your projects.

First introduced in the 1980s as a tool designed to run on personal computers (freeing the accounting department from reliance on its IT department), offerings basically achieved feature and function parity by the next decade. The last major technology innovation—moving the software to the cloud—began in the mid-2000s. Cloud-based software reduces the cost and complexity of ownership, making dedicated software a more practical and attractive option for companies with between 500 and 2,500 workers. We are now on the cusp of a major artificial intelligence-driven wave of innovation that will make dedicated consolidation software more compelling to an even wider set of enterprises. This will amplify an existing trend to increase adoption by finance and accounting organizations looking to boost productivity and shorten the accounting close process. Although they seem like a single thing, almost all enterprises with 500 or more workers consist of multiple legal and management entities. Consolidation is the process of combining the financial statements of multiple entities within an organization to present the financial performance and position of the entire group as a single economic entity. All financial management systems (which may be part of a full ERP system) must be able to perform a statutory consolidation, one that presents corporate financial statements at a headquarters level using the generally accepted accounting principles of that parent company. Built-in consolidation functionality in an ERP system is not always the best choice for an enterprise. Dedicated consolidation software is useful to corporations with even moderate corporate complexity. Most often, this is due to using ERP systems from multiple software providers. Our Next Generation ERP Benchmark Research found that 69% of enterprises with more than 1,000 employees have an ERP system from more than one software provider, and 27% have four or more. Complications to the consolidation process arise when there are multiple legal entities, multiple currencies or intricacies in the ownership structure of its legal entities—such as partial ownership, cross holdings or joint ventures. Enterprises operating in more than one country may have to present consolidated financial statements that include the subset of entities in that jurisdiction or to a regulatory body that’s different from the headquarters. This might require using multiple standards, such as International Financial Reporting Standards (or IFRS) for a business division and US-GAAP for the parent corporation. In some cases, one or more legal entities may have to use accounting treatment and consolidation methods prescribed by regulation for that form of business, which may be defined differently depending on the location. Dedicated software that manages the consolidation process has been around for decades, but until recently, there was very little change and, therefore, very little to comment on. However, the pandemic lockdowns forced finance and accounting executives to focus on ensuring the resiliency of their departments. Moreover, the substantial number of experienced accountants who retired between 2020-2022, especially in the U.S., has increased the need to use technology to enhance staff productivity. In turn, this shortage is causing executives to take a fresh look at software that manages the full close-consolidate-report cycle end-to-end. One important objective is to manage this portion of the accounting calendar as a controlled, repeatable process. Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, one-half of midsize and larger enterprises will use close management software to speed the close and achieve greater control of the process. Although there are compelling reasons for enterprises to use dedicated consolidation software, over the years our benchmark research has found that 37% use it, while 27% rely on the functionality of the core financial management system. The remainder either use spreadsheets or some home-grown application. As noted, some enterprises are not especially complex and, therefore, don’t see the need for dedicated software. Some use either spreadsheets or spreadsheets in conjunction with the core ERP system to do the work, even if this choice might be less efficient or take longer to complete. Another consistent finding is that organizations replace systems at long intervals—the average age of the software is about a decade. This is changing. Despite the maturity of the dedicated consolidation software category, I began to refocus on it a few years ago because I saw evolving business needs and technology capabilities that necessitated increased adoption. The disruptions caused by office lockdowns motivated companies to digitize more accounting tasks, while the shortage of accounting talent caused by pandemic-era retirements placed greater emphasis on using software to boost productivity. More recently, the potential of embedding AI and GenAI in consolidation software is likely to increase its adoption because it can automate and streamline repetitive actions and sequences to gain productivity and shorten the process. Among software providers, quickly and successfully enhancing the utility and performance of systems may dictate market share. Embedded AI promises to significantly increase the speed and productivity of the consolidation by automating a considerable percentage of the rote, repetitive steps that characterize much of the statutory consolidation process. Some tasks, such as reconciliations that can be accomplished with basic matching routines (not machine learning), are already automated. The next level of automation will include parts of the process that can only be accomplished with relatively trivial pattern recognition and machine learning. Not all numbers can be matched for a long list of reasons, so accountants use methods that require some inference and shortcuts built on systemic knowledge and experience to get the work done. A significant percentage of these techniques can be “learned” by the system and can be an inherent part of the software, refined by the practices of individual enterprises. And because AI using ML is built around statistical observations, embedded AI systems’ decision support won’t be binary. Where an even modest amount of statistical uncertainty exists about the “right” decision, conclusion or recommendation, systems can ask a human to make a choice, even providing them with prompts showing the likeliest next steps and dispatch an agent to perform the recommended series of actions. GenAI is not likely to play a significant role in the consolidation process but, for example, it can speed up the creation of routine journal entries. AI agents have substantial potential to boost departmental productivity because the close involves tasks performed relatively infrequently: Once a month, once a quarter and once a year. Inevitably, there’s a learning curve that need not exist. Some routines aren’t invoked every close, and those where chaining together fragments eliminate almost all latency in how long it takes to complete the task. The close is almost never a smooth, step-by-step execution. There are always last-minute changes that ripple through the numbers. It’s a reasonable hypothesis to expect that eliminating latencies, measured in time between tasks, will have a noticeable and perhaps even a profound cumulative impact in shortening the consolidation process. The rapid development and embedding of AI and GenAI capabilities in dedicated consolidation software will present buyers with a more complicated set of choices. As a rule, selection decisions are dictated first by cost considerations, then by software provider or system integrator preferences in the context of the buyer’s scalability and performance requirements. Next are system considerations, such as the headquarters ERP system provider. In an era of feature and function parity, the final choice between several packages might rest on less objective matters such as a user interface design or better congruence with the department’s process peculiarities. These assessments also usually involve multiple stakeholders with different priorities and influence on the final decision. However, over the next five years, consolidation software providers’ embedded AI capabilities are likely to advance at different rates. The availability of embedded AI consolidation software will accelerate demand in the market, either to replace existing on-premises systems or to provide this technology to enterprises that use spreadsheets to manage all or a significant part of the close process. In some cases, an enterprise using a cloud-based consolidation system may decide to switch providers. I strongly recommend that finance and accounting departments adopt AI-enabled consolidation software as soon as possible. The software will almost certainly increase staff productivity over the next five years and can be a catalyst to accelerate the close. Our recent Fast Close Dynamic Insights Research found that more than one-half of enterprises take more than six business days to complete the quarterly process, despite widespread agreement that the benchmark is a business week. Departments don’t have to be at the bleeding edge of technology adoption to begin the process because all software providers have a strategy to introduce AI-enabled capabilities as they are feasible and provide limited risk. That noted, making choices based on existing versus promised innovations will not be straightforward because software providers will advance at different paces over the coming years. Promised innovations, as usual, will be realized unevenly by each provider. Departments must closely monitor the market to understand what’s available and have a roadmap for adopting AI and GenAI to assist in managing the close.

At the event, Oracle demonstrated progress in adding useful AI-enabled capabilities to its business applications, especially in finance and accounting, supply chain, HR and revenue management. To put this into context, across the software industry, AI is already at work in many finance-focused applications that are currently available, albeit often in limited release. We are in the early stages of a new generation of business applications. After decades of limited innovation, software providers are in a race to add AI capabilities to their software as fully and rapidly as possible without frustrating users, while retaining a reputation for reliability and security. I recently wrote about the ability of AI and generative AI (GenAI) to boost productivity and the need for guardrails and risk management in applying this technology. Buyers and users of business applications should expect a steady stream of announcements from software providers for the foreseeable future. In the race to innovate, larger, incumbent providers have an advantage. This goes against the standard model, up to now, of software industry disruption where, as new technology is introduced, smaller, nimbler companies are able to exploit faster than “legacy” providers. In the past, the new players were able to reconceive how new technology could accomplish business tasks, unburdened by legacy code and incompatible sales or go-to-market models. In this meme, the old guard are dinosaurs, ready for extinction. However, that’s not the case with AI in business software applications because the technology is additive to existing products’ capabilities. In this case, the larger incumbents, including Oracle, have four key advantages. They have: Broad and deep functionality built into mature, stable applications. Large data sets from diverse groups of users on which to train systems anonymously. A large installed base on which to spread fixed development costs. Scale to negotiate better input factor pricing such as memory and compute power. These advantages allow the large, incumbent providers to include almost all core AI capabilities at no cost to customers, potentially giving them an advantage over smaller or less well-established competitors that either must find ways to increase revenues, be more selective in developing and embedding AI in their software or deal with lower profitability. In Oracle’s case, managing its own Cloud Infrastructure can provide advantages to some customers or potential customers. ISG-Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, almost all providers of software designed for finance organizations will incorporate AI capabilities to reduce workloads. The productivity gains from AI are more likely to be achieved initially through a steady stream of small hacks and initiatives that eliminate less productive and unproductive work, rather than big bangs. One reason is that the process of infusing AI into cloud business applications will be incremental, with the level of sophistication constrained by a gradual leveling up of data availability and proven trustworthiness. One reason why so much embedded AI is now available is that for Oracle, like many established business software providers, this is not new. Work in this area has been underway for more than a decade, but the attention paid to GenAI catalyzed market demand and spurred product innovation. The sessions at the analyst event highlighted several areas where Oracle has AI-enabled offerings. ERP and other transactions management systems are ripe for AI innovation. Technology can enable software users to achieve productivity gains through automation and end-to-end data quality management using predictive and GenAI. For example, Oracle demonstrated “touchless” operations where incoming business documents are machine read using optical character recognition and the relevant data is extracted with no human intervention. Moreover, the data captured can be programmatically enriched for context to (for example) properly classify amounts for cost allocations, automatically match an invoice to a purchase order or some other clear action. Transactions can be immediately auto-reconciled, reducing period-end tasks and supporting a continuous accounting approach to financial management. Eliminating humans from repetitive tasks increases productivity directly. A touchless approach also can significantly reduce the incidence of human error (such as fat-fingering amounts) that drive additional downstream work devoted to finding and correcting mistakes. Using relatively simple machine learning (ML) can spot potential errors or missing information better than a fixed validity check, while predictive and GenAI can quickly offer individuals options for resolving an anomalous situation. Increased productivity can reduce costs and boost buyer and supplier satisfaction. Eliminating dull repetitive work while significantly reducing workload spikes can make it easier to attract and retain scarce departmental talent as the staff can maintain a satisfying work/life balance. ISG-Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, almost all procure-to-pay software suites will use AI and optical character recognition OCR to automate data ingestion from external documents and emails, saving time and ensuring all necessary information is captured accurately at the source. Oracle also pointed to the ability of touchless operations in the near future to support what it calls a continuous close, which is an element of continuous accounting. (From an accountant’s perspective, this is not a true close but a close-enough close.) Using AI enables the greater use of straight-through processing supported by, for example, automated matching, auto-resolution of exceptions and automated classification to handle an increasing percentage of the accounting workload. Even in handling the remaining exceptions, GenAI can present sets of recommendations to improve the productivity of a skilled human in resolving those exceptions. Predictive analytics have been around for decades but have not been widely adopted in finance departments because of data breadth, data quality and model-building skills issues. As enterprises seek to make broad use of AI technologies, they now have a substantial set of more capable tools at their disposal to ensure they have the accurate and accessible data they need. For example, as my colleague Matt Aslett explains, data orchestration technologies enable and facilitate the flow of data across the organization to support the practical uses of AI. Predictive analytics supported by ML facilitates the creation and maintenance of models for forecasting, planning and budgeting. Oracle has the infrastructure to support enterprise data management requirements and would do well to facilitate the bidirectional movement of data to and from Oracle and non-Oracle applications to support enterprise forecasting and planning. Oracle illustrated several available predictive AI use cases. For example, the CFO, treasury and financial planning and analysis organizations need to have an accurate (as possible) view on cash collections. Based on expected sales, individual customer or paying-agent payment histories, collection efforts and potentially other factors that historically have had a meaningful impact on incoming payments, Oracle’s system will forecast collections over the desired period presented as expected, best- and worst-case scenarios. Because it’s regression analysis, it’s possible to inform the user of the potential accuracy of the forecast as well as the most important factors in the regression analysis that cause results. This sort of explainability is essential to user acceptance and intelligent use of these forecasts. Reducing frictions in payment processes is a growing priority in finance departments because this permits better control of cash while enhancing productivity. At the 2022 CloudWorld, Oracle announced its B2B Commerce platform that provides integration with J.P. Morgan for treasury services, trade, commercial card and merchant services capabilities for integrated banking as well as travel card and expenses services. Oracle Fusion ERP has payment technology embedded to enable invoice approval automation as well as the use of virtual cards for supplier payments. Technology can eliminate sources of delay in processing invoices, making it possible for a buyer to negotiate and execute early payment discounts with suppliers, thereby enhancing profitability. Buyers with stronger credit than suppliers can also employ reverse factoring. This is a method of supply chain finance that optimizes working capital utilization by having a financial intermediary provide reliable or even early payment to suppliers while enabling buyers to defer their payment to that intermediary. On the seller side, Fusion ERP and NetSuite connect accounts receivable management with cash collection via ACH and virtual cards. Payment technology is vital to accounts receivable automation, which has become increasingly important as business-to-business selling has grown more complex. Buyers want a simpler and more streamlined experience similar to what they expect as individual consumers, but it takes technology to make the complexities of today’s B2B selling appear simple. Processing transactions is more difficult than ever because the structure of these transactions can be complex. While one-time sales are straightforward, B2B purchases may be covered by a negotiated annual contract that sets pricing, discounts, terms and conditions. Connecting the payments and receivables processes is necessary to make that experience feasible. Enterprises are already making significant investments in AI. ISG Research finds that, on average, organizations spent 2% of IT budgets on AI in 2023. The average expected spend for 2024 is 3.7% and 5.9% in 2025. The research also finds that enterprises are willing to spend more per seat to have AI-enabled capabilities, with sales performance management, supply chain management and treasury and risk management showing the greatest propensity to pay more. Typically, finance and accounting departments have proven to be technology laggards in adopting new methods. An innate conservatism, aversion to risk and the need to ensure complete accuracy are the human factors at work. However, the benefits of AI-enabled applications to productivity and staff morale are compelling. I strongly recommend that finance executives adopt a fast-follower approach to technology adoption. A fast-follower approach is now a necessity because software designed for finance and accounting departments is evolving rapidly, and incremental adoption as AI capabilities become available is a more productive, less disruptive and less risky approach than playing catch-up. AI-enabled applications will reduce a significant part of the department’s workload currently spent on repetitive tasks and mechanical processes, allowing staff to focus on the more valuable work that requires expertise, experience and judgement.

As that happens, we will discover who’s willing to pay how much and for what. After nearly 18 months of unlimited use-case fantasizing, it should be obvious that not all the potential applications of AI can be realized over the next three to five years because they fail a cost/benefit test. In theory, AI’s potential is almost limitless, but so far, little thought has been paid to how the economics will play out. The issue of AI costs is important because even uses that are technically feasible will be passed over if buyers find them more costly than they are worth. Business software providers, especially those serving the technology-hesitant office of finance, will need to correctly anticipate the market willing to pay for AI when making their investments. Software buyers will need to consider the current and future ability of a software provider to offer reliable AI-infused capabilities that address their requirements at a price they’re willing to pay. Cost/benefit analyses will have a strong influence on how businesses structure their strategic and tactical approaches to AI and therefore how demand for AI — especially AI for business purposes — is likely to play out in the market. The pointy end of the technology adoption spear will be the willingness of CFOs to invest in the technology. These executives will be facing an ongoing trilemma over investing in AI in both their role as the finance department leader as well as overseeing the finances of an enterprise: Should AI be a means of cutting costs, a source of innovation and productivity, or both? And if both, what framework should they be using to determine how to make the choice? On the other side of the transaction, business software providers face the issue of where to make and prioritize AI investments. And they will confront the corollary issue of where, in order to remain competitive, they are willing to absorb ongoing development and operational costs of AI without adequate compensation. The answer to the trilemma is: All of the above. For a current read on the willingness of enterprises to invest in the technology, ISG asked participants in its AI Buyer Behavior Study how much more they would be willing to spend on AI capabilities as a percentage of what they were currently paying. The research provides insight into how enterprises currently expect to gain value from using AI and, therefore, their propensity to pay for AI capability in applications. The research finds the greatest inclination to spend is in sales performance management, which I interpret to mean that the participants see this area as having the greatest potential to generate profit through gains in sales productivity and therefore greater revenue. The next five include supply chain management (to cut costs), treasury and risk management (for more accurate cash flow forecasts, to reduce risk of fraud and credit losses as well as cut the cost of regulatory compliance), IT service management (to cut costs), analytics and business intelligence (BI) (to gain productivity) as well as procurement (cut costs). In other words, enterprises are willing to pay for productivity gains that clearly generate revenue and easily achieve cost savings or reduced risk. Those offerings that promote productivity without a direct connection to higher revenue or cost savings, or where the cost savings are perceived to be limited or difficult to achieve, will not make the cut. Although AI is likely to positively impact an enterprise’s operational and financial performance, investment decisions will vary. Experience suggests that the realizable gains will differ across industries, location, the size of the organization and their technological competence. Moreover, no matter how attractive the proposition is, CFOs will be constrained by their financial position in making investment decisions. So, those industries and enterprises that operate with thin profit margins are more likely to favor initiatives that clearly cut costs over those that might achieve a strategic advantage. That is, unless not having AI at work poses an existential competitive threat. Enterprises with between 100 and 1,000 employees are unlikely to lower headcount through productivity gains because people in these organizations typically wear multiple hats, so investments that favor productivity (and reduce the need to hire people in the future) should be attractive. In North America, the shortage of skilled accountants that is likely to persist will encourage departments to find ways to increase productivity. In charting their product strategy and making R&D investment decisions, software providers will need to take their customers’ needs and constraints into account while factoring in the investment direction of their competitors. ISG-Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, almost all providers of software designed for finance organizations will have incorporated some AI capabilities to reduce workloads and improve performance. Yet, it’s not clear how much finance and accounting departments will be willing to pay for AI. The sort-of good news is that many of the initial uses of AI for the department are relatively inexpensive to develop and operate because they are straightforward applications of predictive analytics requiring limited compute power. These include supervisory tasks that spot outliers and omissions and, therefore, potential errors at their source, accelerating forecasting and planning, facilitating the production of analytics, reconciling data from disparate sources and automating data entry from paper and electronic documents. Each of these instances offer collective impacts, where the combined or overall impact of many small individual actions or occurrences is significant when measured in avoided costs, productivity gains or organizational performance. The use of GenAI may prove to be trickier from a cost/benefit standpoint. I expect that all software providers will need to offer some sort of copilot or digital assistant for competitive reasons, but it’s not clear how well these capabilities can be monetized. Some GenAI features may be included in the software’s subscription price, while more advanced ones requiring more compute power or more costly resources may require additional fees. Software providers with a larger installed base may be at an advantage, having the ability to fund development efforts to secure broader and deeper capabilities sooner, which will affect market shares and industry consolidation through the end of this decade. Alternatively, smaller software providers may be able to source ranges of advanced GenAI capabilities to offset that advantage. The impact of AI and GenAI remains a classic undetermined linear algebra problem, the kind with fewer equations than unknowns and therefore one with an infinite number of solutions. The technology will transform how enterprises operate, and those that can harness its power best will be more competitive than those that lag in their adoption. How well software providers develop and market AI-infused capabilities will be a key factor in determining the shape of the industry at the end of this decade. Yet, buyers and sellers of the technology must obey the physics of finance in setting investment priorities. I strongly recommend that CFOs and their finance and accounting departments have a clear understanding of the benefits of AI, how to achieve them and what they’re worth. We are on the cusp of a generational change in the tools available to finance departments. Yet most enterprises are ill-prepared to adopt new tools and their methods. Our Office of Finance Benchmark Research finds that 49% of departments are technology laggards while just 12% are innovative. This matters because the research also shows a correlation between technological competence and how well the department performs core processes. I recommend finance executives develop a fast-follower approach to technology adoption and instill this competency in their department. They must successfully overcome their conservative approach to technology, which may be to instinctively act as a follower (“excellent idea — you go first”). And they need to adopt a fast-follower approach to using AI — adopting technology as soon as it is proven to stay ahead of the pack.

It’s almost trite but worth repeating that artificial intelligence will drive a substantial boost in productivity as it’s adopted. Rather than making large swathes of jobs obsolete, it will take the robotic work out of those job descriptions, enabling people to focus on tasks with a greater economic return. In the rapid evolution that’s about to take place, we can expect to see: Top-down versus bottom-up AI initiatives: The former are strategic, enterprise-wide undertakings with a broad vision, while the latter are tactical, opportunistic projects designed to solve a problem or set of related issues and managed at a business unit or departmental level. Enterprise versus small-scale data management: A prerequisite for any AI deployment is having enough quality data. Bottom-up AI initiatives will typically be built around focused and relatively easily sourced data, requiring less effort than enterprise-wide data management initiatives. The latter will face the challenge that any large-scale undertaking runs into, making high-profile, spectacular failures inevitable. Large versus narrow language models: Making generative AI practical and affordable will entail using the right language model for the right task, ranging from the familiar large language models to narrow ones and everything in between. Large language models will become quickly commoditized, with a few highly specialized ones the exception. Enterprises are making significant investments in AI. ISG Research has found that, on average, organizations spent 2% of IT budgets on AI in 2023. The average expected spend for 2024 is 3.7% and 5.9% in 2025.

One reason is that the process of infusing AI into cloud business applications will be incremental, with the level of sophistication constrained by a gradual leveling up of data availability and proven trustworthiness. Like all good technology, AI works best when it’s invisible to the user, which is especially the case with relatively trivial tasks. Depending on their complexity, higher-order tasks that require interaction with the system will have a worker learning curve. Change-management issues are almost inevitable. Some may be a relatively light lift, such as generative AI creating first drafts of simple documents or emails. Introducing more sophisticated AI use cases is likely to be more challenging–for example, creating first drafts of a budget or financial forecast generated by applying predictive analytic techniques. Instilling a mindset that first drafts are not a finished product will be an ongoing management challenge. Individuals will need to reflexively accept responsibility for content reviews, understanding their role in the finished result, whether it’s a simple email response or a legal contract. But humans are fallible, so supervisory capabilities will be an essential part of a business application, and third-party supervisory tools will be a niche market. Productivity by a thousand cuts means that these initial, relatively simple applications are likely to produce an underappreciated boost to productivity. They will be successful because of their focus, meaning that they will be built to work well in existing IT environments. Their usefulness will prove AI’s feasibility and value, a key part of building trust in utilizing this technology. Moving beyond simple AI use cases will require increasing levels of effort in data management, especially for business software. Until now, serious data management has been a diet-and-exercise affair–everyone knows they need to pay closer attention to it, but few make the effort. Predictive and generative AI will provide a strong business case for investing in data management capabilities. Because of their focus, tactical AI use cases will require less investment, but inevitably, a mass of scattered efforts will need to coalesce into a more comprehensive approach. Moreover, data management technology has advanced considerably over the past decade, notably in the increasing sophistication and ease of use of application programming interfaces and advancements in operationalizing data fabric concepts. History suggests that large-scale data initiatives are more likely to be a source of failure because of organizational reasons. They will be unfocused, with competing interests and uncertain aims, all key ingredients to failed project management. Ultimately, though, enterprises will need to sort out the data architecture underpinning all third-party and internally developed software to optimize cost and performance, a task that will be made much easier through AI. An essential element in the advancement of AI that’s only just gaining attention is the importance of language model orchestration. While a lot of the public’s attention has been on a few large language models such as ChatGPT or Gemini, there’s been a considerable amount of investment in the development of narrow, small and medium language models. Some of these have a specific industry or functional purpose, such as material management in aerospace, legal and accounting. For example, software that automates the processing of incoming invoices will require a narrow model for the optical character recognition to extract the text, small language models to correctly extract and characterize the data to properly classify its meaning, a medium size model to determine the appropriate routing and notifications plus enrich the data set with other information needed or useful for additional analysis. Medium-size models will summarize inbound contracts and highlight wording that requires review, while an LLM will create alternative contract wording for review. Language models of all sorts will become a commodity, and an initial abundance of these will quickly winnow down to those that are superior in terms of performance, cost and specific utility. Business applications will require a combination of models of all sizes. The frenzied pace of innovation in AI is matched only by a seeming willingness of enterprises to adopt software that will increase productivity. While there are technical challenges and the need to deal effectively with privacy and security, I strongly recommend that business executives focus on organizational issues by providing an overarching, realistic vision of what AI will do for workers and customers in the short- and medium-term. Change management is a likely impediment to adoption and achieving full benefit from investments. Executives must also demand a clear roadmap from their IT organization and a coordinated approach to data management to optimize the impact of those investments.

There are solid reasons to believe that the next few years will be transformative, making it important for departments to adopt a fast-follower approach to artificial intelligence. Rather than being a laggard, leaders must be ready to take affirmative steps to incorporate technological innovations as soon as they have proven practical. It’s essential for executives to have a plan for AI and generative AI adoption, as this technology is the single most important strategic issue that executives will deal with over the next three years. Artificial intelligence is already at work, and finance-focused AI- and generative AI-enabled applications are available. Expect a steady stream of announcements from software providers in this category this year. Ventana Research asserts that by 2027, almost all providers of software designed for finance organizations will incorporate AI capabilities to reduce workloads and improve performance. I recently wrote about the ability of AI and generative AI to boost productivity and the need for guardrails and risk management in applying this technology. As encouraging as the initial steps are, there also are important questions about the feasibility and timelines of having the clean data necessary to train machine learning models that are performant, accurate and up-to-date. The required data must be resident on the application platform but determining how it gets there can be an issue. For example, under what conditions is it best to source the data directly from the authoritative system of record, or should there be an intermediate data store for cost or performance considerations? While fevered minds can create seductive use cases, making the more evolved and exotic examples affordable and worth the cost is an open question. Enterprise generative AI systems require large language models to train on that enterprise’s corpus rather than the whole internet to produce results that are faithful to what the organization “knows” while limiting copyright infringement and other risks. In time, it’s likely that application software vendors will use multiple LLMs to support generative AI features – for both general purposes and optimized for specific purposes such as contracts, accounting and supply chain management. AI isn’t some far-off capability. It’s already available to varying degrees in planning and budgeting platforms. The scope, complexity and depth of AI functionality will grow steadily over the next five years. Planning software vendors are incorporating an integrated data store necessary for machine learning to support AI. This type of data store will all but eliminate time spent on data preparation tasks that occupy considerable analyst time. We are on the cusp of a generational change in the tools available to finance departments. Yet most enterprises are ill-prepared to adopt new tools and the methods required to use them. Our Office of Finance Benchmark Research found that 49% of departments are technology laggards while just 12% are innovative. This matters because the research also shows a correlation between technological competence and how well the department performs core processes. Organizations that are advanced in the use of technology perform accounting, analysis, cash management and tax (to name a handful) better than laggards. For that reason alone, I recommend finance executives develop technology competency in their department to successfully overcome their conservative approach to technology, which may be to instinctively act as a follower (“excellent idea – you go first”). And they need to adopt a fast-follower approach – adopting technology as soon as it is proven to stay ahead of the pack. Altering how work is performed is the best way to take advantage of the capabilities technology affords.
