City Harvest Case Study on Board Implementation

This case study details the implementation of the Board corporate performance management platform by City Harvest, a non-profit organization based in New York City. The document outlines the challenges faced by City Harvest in managing financial planning and reporting through approximately 200 disconnected spreadsheets. The need for a more efficient system led to the selection of Board, which integrates with their existing Microsoft Dynamics™ GP ERP system. The case study describes the collaboration with Quisitive, a financial management consulting firm, to configure and launch the Board solution within a tight six-month timeline. Key improvements noted post-implementation include a reduction in the budgeting timeline by 20 days, enhanced accuracy of financial data, and improved access to real-time reports for managers. The document also highlights future plans for further integration of financial data and utilization of Board's forecasting capabilities as City Harvest continues to grow.
