Financial Systems Support

Computech provides CFOs with the mission-critical IT support needed to master their unique technical challenges by providing a dedicated technical team with financial and reporting skills.

Frequently, our CFO clients express frustration with the difficulties they encounter in getting the necessary IT support from their IT staff and/or contractors.  Their needs are either not considered mission-critical enough to be given priority, or the technical staff lacks the financial and accounting skills needed to successfully complete projects.  Financial executives have distinctive problems, and Computech is an applications development company that specializes in supporting financial systems and addressing these issues.

We are highly responsive to the financial executive’s IT support needs; our dedicated support is flexible and adaptable to meet special financial technology requirements and other ad hoc requests.  We have a range of experience in successfully solving multifaceted challenges.  CFOs have distinctive technology requirements and their systems have many moving parts.  They encounter a wide-range of challenges, from financial modernization projects, to providing revenue collection systems, transparency and financial reporting.

Core financial systems are full-featured and provide solutions to most of an organization’s financial system needs.  However, many agencies have unique requirements, driven by their mission, that are not supported.  This leaves agencies with two options: build-in the requirements via expensive and difficult to maintain customization, or build functionality outside the core system by creating applications that interface with the financial system.  Computech is experienced at providing the application development and operations and maintenance services needed for these specialized financial systems.

We have also found that financial reporting frequently requires designing adaptable interfaces to optimize the flow of information, and Computech is experienced at creating these interfaces.  A lack of interfaces can create manual processes or delay the transition to the new system.

Revenue collection systems also require integration and the creation of interfaces into the financial system, and Computech is experienced with resolving these issues.  Some of the more troublesome systems outside the core financial system are the revenue collection systems, such as licensing and fees.  These are typically applications that use public facing websites to interface with users.  Although it is typically best to leave these applications outside the financial system, they require interfaces that meet the needs of the application to provide real-time information on payments and credits.

Business intelligence tools can be powerful instruments for resolving reporting challenges, and Computech provides the full-spectrum of services to support these needs.  Business intelligence is another critical need for which Computech provides expert support, featuring analysts with accounting backgrounds and report developers who are skilled with financial reporting.  A financial system will provide standard financial reporting, but the CFOs with which Computech has worked have greater needs than can be provided out-of-the-box.

Computech has the technical and financial skills to provide CFOs with the solutions they need.  From supporting financial modernizations and managing and operating revenue collection systems to providing support for financial reporting, Computech has a track record of success.
