Getting a grip on financing and steering information for the future

Data is all about face-to-face communication

Important to the success was not only the technology, but the way of working together. “Jay, the one who does it operationally, is here in the office one-and-a-half days a week. He is easily approachable and hears the business around him. When I saw him come in, I thought, is such a young guy going to solve this for me? But when I see how he operates, how he picks it up and discusses it internally…he just does that very well. Face-to-face communication is easier than via data. They understand that at Blenddata.”

Less worry, better sleep

The combination of less manual work and less error proneness brings peace of mind to the organisation. The impact is especially felt internally. “If an error sneaks into our own financial records, it can happen once. But in our loan administration, that can’t happen. That has to be really tight.” The reaction from a financial control colleague speaks volumes: “It’s easier to work and I sleep better, because you don’t have to worry as much if something is wrong.”

Data engineering remains part of the business.

“It’s not about one project, it’s about a partner for the next five years. For us as an SME, this is important. You have to have confidence that an organisation can continue to support and complement us.
