{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "headline": "Kinaxis Opens Its Concurrent Planning Platform", "mainEntityOfPage": "https://robertkugel.isg-research.net/kinaxis-opens-its-concurrent-planning-platform", "datePublished": "27/12/2019", "dateModified": "27/12/2019", "articleBody": "Kinaxis recently held its annual user conference, Kinexions, which focuses on helping the company’s customers improve their execution of supply chain and sales and operations planning (S&OP). Its RapidResponse software handles S&OP, demand, supply, inventory and capacity planning. S&OP is a function sorely in need of improvement: Our research finds that only 22 percent of companies perform it well or very well. At the event, the most significant news and discussion for future direction was its extended platform strategy. The objective is to broaden the company’s market by opening RapidResponse to development by third parties with specialized industry and functional expertise as well as customers who need to add specific capabilities. The company also outlined its direction in artificial intelligence, which will be a key technology for improving the performance of supply chain management and sales and operations planning. To put the event into a broader perspective, this year’s Kinexons took place against the backdrop of rising trade tensions that reflect what I’ve called a new (and more challenging) era of world trade. In this new era, companies that operate globally are finding that supply chain management has become a more strategic matter because conditions are more dynamic. Consequently, companies must manage their supply chains with more long-term flexibility and greater short-term agility. The new environment has complicated the already challenging tasks of supply chain management and related sales and operations planning. In larger companies these processes require planning, coordinating and handling a vast amount of detail to support an ongoing stream of tactical decisions. Being able to execute those tasks accurately and in a timely fashion forges an intimate connection between purely tactical motions and a company’s ability to achieve its strategic objectives. The old proverb, “For Want of a Nail” — where the loss of nail for a horseshoe ultimately leads to defeat in battle — comes to mind. Unfortunately, in too many companies the strategic value of effectively executing the grunt work is underappreciated. Senior executives do not recognize the degree to which better execution will produce a sustainable competitive advantage and higher profitability. Conversely, too few of those in the trenches have the perspective or ability to effectively communicate the value of improved supply chain execution. This lack of appreciation has been the most significant market challenge for Kinaxis. From its inception, Kinaxis has focused on addressing the needs of companies with very demanding supply chain environments. Kinaxis differentiates its offering through its ability to significantly cut the time it takes to generate feasible plans, an approach the company calls “concurrent planning.” Rather than requiring an iterative process of step-by-step, silo-based planning motions typical of most S&OP software, concurrent planning does this all at once. Being able to compress planning cycles from hours or even days to minutes enables organizations to react to changing conditions faster and with greater intelligence and weigh the implications of different courses of action under different scenarios. Moreover, S&OP is an inherently collaborative process. Having a single platform that enables all constituents (demand and supply chain planners in particular) to work with a single set of data helps compress decision cycles to enhance agility in responding to marketplace or supply chain changes. I found the most significant development discussed at Kinexions was the progress the company is making with its expanded platform strategy, a topic I wrote about earlier this year. Kinaxis is opening its software to third-party developers to build custom planning applications and algorithms that operate natively with RapidResponse and is enabling external algorithms to be overlaid in the software’s operations. The objective is to be able to address the needs of a wider set of companies in a shorter period of time than it could with its own internal development programs. Retail is one example. Currently Kinaxis focuses on corporations in high technology and electronics; aerospace and defense; life sciences and pharmaceuticals; industrial, and automotive. Different industries and microverticals (such as beer and malt drinks as a subset of beverages) have unique supply chain characteristics and may use specific algorithms for optimizing trade-offs in their supply chain planning. Supply chain management and sales and operations planning are fields ripe for the application of artificial intelligence using machine learning and Kinaxis is focusing on these technologies. On the planning side, AI can quickly assemble a preliminary plan or update that reflects most of the variables that individuals must now consider, for example, seasonality and movable holidays such as Easter or Black Friday in the U.S. or the new year holiday in China. AI can support the creation of predictive analytics to develop more nuanced forecasts. Planners can use AI to “sanity-check” their plans and forecasts and point out irregularities that should be corrected or defended with an explanation. There is a mass of detail and many repetitive steps involved in planning and execution. A significant portion of these steps could be automated, enabling individuals to focus on anomalies and exceptions. In addition, systems can monitor conditions to spot irregularities or conditions that could result in downstream issues before they become a problem. This would improve a company’s ability to take measures ahead of time to ward off problems or mitigate their impact. The application of artificial intelligence to concurrent planning can accelerate planning cycles by cutting planners’ workloads and shortening the time required to create multiple relevant scenarios. The business value of planning lies in its ability to help make successful data-driven decisions faster and more consistently. Today, a more challenging and complex environment for trade and taxation has complicated how products, components and supplies are sourced and routed. Fortunately, technology is making sales and operations planning and supply chain management more effective by eliminating the need for humans to endlessly handle the complex interactions of minutiae to achieve company objectives such as cost, order fulfilment and working capital optimization. Kinaxis’ decision to open up its platform to developers means that a wider range of companies will be able to utilize the software. Over the coming decade, artificial intelligence using machine learning will transform how supply and demand chains are managed. By substantially reducing the need for humans to handle the minutiae, AI will put a premium on a company’s supply and demand chain managers to adapt rapidly to changing conditions. I recommend that any larger corporation with even a moderately complex supply chain or set of production processes evaluate Kinaxis.

Both meetings shed light on how the company is addressing two key opportunities. One is building a robust offering to address rapidly evolving technology requirements for the Office of Finance. The other is broadening the scope of its offering to address the financial management and administration needs of its customers. Technology Transformation in the Office of Finance Technology will transform how the Office of Finance operates more over the next decade than it has over the past 50 years. Over this period, advances will enable a higher degree of differentiation in this mature market than has been possible. Reflecting this, Sage Intacct’s technology roadmap was a prominent feature at the analyst day and at Advantage. The company’s objective is to incorporate advanced technologies in a way that’s accessible to customers and affordable. However, like all software vendors in this market space, Intacct must deal with the fact that finance departments traditionally have been slow to adopt and incorporate technology advances. The vision of a digitally transformed, technology-enabled finance and accounting organization belies the reality: finance organizations are technology laggards. Half (49%) of organizations in our recently completed Office of Finance research place at the lowest level of performance in their use of technology while just 12 percent are at the highest. In part this reflects a cultural resistance to change but I think it also suggests that technology must be easier to use. Fortunately, software technology and design are trending in this direction. Cleaner, adaptive user interfaces and guided process management that can span multiple applications are important strides in enabling software to more readily adapt to the user’s needs rather than requiring users to master the software. Sage Intacct says its objective is to deliver what it refers to as an “intelligent general ledger” (GL). This is software that supports what I call “continuous accounting,” which spreads workloads more evenly along accounting periods to accelerate the accounting close and maintain data integrity to improve the quality of financial reporting. The intelligent GL can provide real-time insights and analytics that monitor a company’s performance. It also increases the automation of data entry using, for example, mobile devices to scan receipts, and monitors data entry in real time to spot inconsistencies or missed fields. Eliminating data errors at the source improves the quality of financial statements and enhances departmental productivity by removing the need to find and correct those errors, which are common in most accounting departments. A core technology supporting the intelligent GL is artificial intelligence (AI), which has been receiving a great deal of attention because of its transformative potential. Use of this technology is one of several ways in which vendors will make finance departments more productive and more strategic in the coming decade. AI conjures up an image of computers beating humans at playing chess. However, for the finance organization AI’s biggest initial impact will be on the mundane aspects of work. A substantial amount of work performed in finance and accounting is repetitive and requires a limited degree of human judgment. It’s therefore an ideal candidate for applying AI to automate standard processes such as invoice matching or to speed data entry by automatically filling in fields. In concept, it’s straightforward to train a computer to perform standard repetitive processes using AI without having to resort to programming. The challenge facing all vendors using AI in their products or services is having a system that works well enough out of the box that it doesn’t frustrate users or require time-consuming training. History has shown that a premature release of technology (for example, the Apple Newton’s handwriting recognition fiasco) can stifle a product with a great deal of potential. Thus, infusing artificial intelligence into business applications is likely to be an evolutionary process. I expect vendors such as Sage Intacct will do extensive internal testing as well as using alpha and beta test programs before releasing the software for general use. A More Complete Offering Over the past two years Sage has made two acquisitions of cloud-based applications: Fairsail, now Sage People, for human capital management (HCM) and Budgeta, now Sage Intacct Budgeting and Planning. The two, along with internally built Sage Analytics, provide Sage Intacct customers with complementary software to manage their administrative needs. Midsize companies especially can benefit from this sort of integration because it can reduce the total cost of ownership and implementations can be faster and easier. The integration of ERP, HCM and planning also makes it easier for midsize companies because there’s a unified data set for budgeting, planning, analysis and reporting. Sage People offers a full suite of HCM capabilities including human resources, talent acquisition, attendance, talent and workforce management as well as payroll, compensation and benefits. People are the largest expense item and the most critical component to the success of companies in Sage Intacct’s core vertical industries. So an HCM application is a good strategic fit and follows the pattern in ERP and financial management applications suites aimed at larger organizations, which typically have an integrated HCM capability. The Budgeting and Planning application offers midsize companies a compelling alternative to spreadsheets. Our research shows that 58 percent of midsize and larger companies use spreadsheets for budgeting and planning. The software simplifies modeling and reporting without requiring users to learn a lot of new skills. It can reduce budget owners’ workloads while potentially providing more accurate budgets and forecasts for finance and business analysts. The application also offers integrated cash flow and balance sheet forecasting capabilities. This is especially useful for midsize companies since they can manage cash and their balance sheet with greater visibility and certainty, something that’s relatively difficult to do using spreadsheets. Having a suite of administrative applications provides Sage Intacct with a marketplace advantage. Our Office of Finance research finds that nearly half (47%) of organizations choose suites unless there is a compelling reason to buy individual applications and an additional 14 percent always choose suites. The Cloud Advantage From the start, Sage Intacct has been a cloud-based application. Given all the positive attention that cloud-based applications have received over the past decade, one might expect that finance department buyers would have fully embraced this deployment method. To be sure, cloud-based ERP is a growth category in the software market. However, our research finds that the cloud isn’t the preferred way to implement this software. Half (52%) of participants said they prefer to deploy ERP software on-premises while only 28 percent prefer a software-as-a-subscription (SaaS) method. I think this preference is misplaced. Unless there are compelling reasons not to, I advise midsize companies to move their financial management and other administrative applications to the cloud for three main reasons. First, this method of deployment is almost certainly more secure than what a typical midsize company can afford to provide for its on-premises deployment. Cloud-based software not only provides better protection from hacking but also eases disaster recovery. Second, performance and up-time is likely to be equal or better than most midsize companies can achieve on their own because the software is running on better hardware — and better-managed hardware and networks — than what almost all midsize companies can afford. Third, the pace of product innovation in financial management software will accelerate in the coming decade. Cloud-based systems enable companies to absorb these innovations more gracefully than on-premises systems do. When companies fall behind in major releases, updates and upgrades become expensive and problematic. Software Tools Require Forward Thinking Too often we find that companies faced with the need to replace their core financial systems look to replicate what they already have. What they should do instead is seek to understand how the applications they are considering can help improve their performance. Otherwise, they will be underutilizing the asset they’ve already paid for from the start. Technology will be expanding the capabilities of business software considerably, so it’s important to focus on product roadmaps and vendors’ likely ability to deliver on their plans. Over the decades that I’ve been covering ERP and financial management software, it’s been clear that companies tend to wait as long as possible to replace aging systems. That’s understandable given the cost and disruption that’s involved in that change. However, our research shows that software performance declines steadily with age. While 80 percent of companies that recently implemented new software said that their system works very well, just 27 percent of those that deployed a system seven or eight years earlier said that’s the case, as did only 15 percent of those with even older systems. ERP and financial management software are key to the performance of a finance and accounting organization. It’s important to balance the potential of a replacement system to improve departmental performance against the cost and risk factors. In considering vendors that can provide a replacement, companies should think beyond like-for-like capabilities. In addition to core financial management capabilities, Sage Intacct has integrated HR and planning and budgeting applications. Its technology roadmap is built on the capabilities of a worldwide development organization focused on the practical adaptation of rapidly evolving capabilities. I recommend that midsize companies in Sage Intacct’s targeted industries and looking to replace their financial management system evaluate Sage Intacct.

It’s Actually Possible", "mainEntityOfPage": "https://robertkugel.isg-research.net/cutting-audit-costs-significantly-its-actually-possible", "datePublished": "03/12/2019", "dateModified": "03/12/2019", "articleBody": "For years I’ve viewed with skepticism the claim that one technology or another will reduce audit costs. For one, there’s rarely a silver bullet. An array of moving parts drive audit fees. For example, the complexity of the corporation, accounting data management and the audit staff’s familiarity with the industry and the company all affect the time auditors must spend. Also, most of the time I’ve found that achieving significant savings was not the result of going from good to great, but from fixing deep-seated issues. If a company’s books and accounting practices are a mess, it can achieve considerable savings simply by cleaning up its act. In this circumstance, technology can play a part of a broader initiative that addresses the people, process and data management elements that are behind the mess. However, I recently attended a session at a user group meeting where a company described how it was able to cut its audit costs — significantly. After listening and considering what was presented, I’ve concluded that drastic improvement is possible, even if you already have a tight accounting organization. And technology plays a key role. In this case, the company was able to cut its direct audit costs to about half of what it had been. It also was able to free up a substantial amount of staff time that had been devoted to the audit. The key elements of its savings were limiting the “provided by client” (PBC) request to less than a page and reducing the outside auditor’s onsite time by about half. The auditor was able to perform the audit in far less time than it had in the past. A prerequisite to achieving this degree of savings is having a cooperative rather than confrontational relationship with the auditor. This is always theoretically possible but history and organizational culture may make it difficult to take this route. There also may be some hesitancy on the auditor side, particularly work done for U.S. public companies. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), established by the Sarbanes-Oxley act, oversees audits and auditors. A cooperative relationship between a company and its auditor may be viewed as “cozy” and therefore suspect. If the company-auditor relationship is built on transparency, though, an organization should find it easy to justify a cooperative relationship. At the user group meeting, the company laid out how technology enabled it to cut the auditor’s onsite time and substantially shorten the PBC list. It did so by: Providing to the auditor a license enabling full access to the company’s general ledger with a few exceptions related to confidentiality maters (such as the payroll detail). Granting view access to the expense management system. Giving the auditor access to view the close management system, enabling him or her, for example, to confirm that cash ties and to view the system logs to check for anomalies. Providing a document storage system for remote viewing of non-confidential documents that are likely to be of interest to the auditor. Technology and an open-book relationship mean that the auditor does less work than typically is the case with a confrontational approach. The latter frequently results in a long request for data and documents. Often organizations provide data in PDF files that are not machine readable so they must be rekeyed by the auditor for analysis. Other information is in paper documents that must be copied and scanned. Usually, the document request is incomplete and initially may not be completely fulfilled by the company, leading to additional back-and-forth that consumes the time of both the auditor and the accounting staff. By contrast, the company presenting its case noted that because the auditor can access data and documents directly, he or she spends far less time cataloging requirements. Both parties spend less time providing and consuming documents. There is no data dump into documents that cannot be consumed electronically. The auditor samples directly from the general ledger system, saving time. Because the auditor can access systems and documents remotely, there’s no need to come on-site until the final stages of the audit. In this specific case, instead of 10 business days on site, the company’s auditor now spends four days, with a commensurate reduction in travel expenses. Moreover, the auditor does incremental audits over the fiscal year, so issues are resolved sooner and don’t pile up until the final audit. The sort of systems and processes that can reduce audit fees also can provide other business benefits. For example, our Office of Finance benchmark research demonstrates that companies that automate their close process are able to close sooner. Almost all companies (88%) that have automated substantially all of their close process can close within six business days, compared to 59 percent that automate some parts and just 40 percent that automate little of none. Closing sooner means that financial and managerial analysis and reporting is completed sooner, enabling executives and managers to seize opportunities and address issues sooner. For their part, auditors are able to use the logs of these systems to confirm that work was performed and that any issues were resolved and attested. I’m certain that an open-book, cooperative approach to auditing that utilizes technology to significantly reduce workloads can cut audit costs. However, I’m not sure how reproduceable this example is today. Not every company will feel comfortable providing unrestricted access to its records. This example is a midsize company with relatively straightforward systems and business processes. Some businesses are complex and inherently messier, so it’s possible that rather than saving time, auditors would spend the same amount of time looking into more data and resolving more questions. The company in question uses a single cloud ERP system, which simplifies access. The company uses electronic systems almost universally throughout the business so almost all needed data is accessible by the auditor in digital formats. Complications can arise when work is done in a vast array of desktop spreadsheets that may not be fully accessible. And an auditor may be loath to accept any arrangement that materially lowers its fees since jobs and livelihoods are at stake. All the above considerations aside, I believe that the company I saw is an example of the future direction of the audit process. Technology can play a key role in reducing audit fees and the time spent by the accounting staff on the audit by making their accounting more transparent and therefore easier to work with. Computing systems increasingly provide transparency that has greater business value than the supposed security of opaque systems and processes. Opaque systems rely on the old auditing adage: “The threshold of materiality rises exponentially as deadlines loom.” In other words, making the audit process a paper chase is worthwhile if a company is uncertain of the quality of its accounting or has something to hide. Digital technologies can improve the quality of a company’s books and lessen anxiety around having an open-book relationship with the auditor. For example, Ventana Research advocates using an approach we call “continuous accounting” that builds quality into accounting processes. In coming years artificial intelligence (AI) will play an increasing role in ensuring accounting data quality. Although it may sound futuristic and whiz-bang, AI is already being brought to bear, for example, on the mundane task of ensuring that accounting entries are accurate and complete at the time of the entry without resorting to tedious programming or enduring an overload of false positives that slow processes down. The use of technology to reduce audit costs is part of our research agenda and we will be following its evolution over the coming years. I recommend that all CFOs and controllers consider how their company can reduce its audit costs, both the direct fees and the indirect cost of unproductive staff time.
