CHALLENGES

The common pitfalls of traditional EPM/FP&A operations

  • Manual work overload

    FP&A teams waste countless hours collecting, cutting, and pasting Excel files from multiple departments just to compile basic reports.
    Instead of focusing on strategy, they are trapped in a cycle of repetitive manual work.

  • Error-prone processes

    Formula overwrites, inconsistent data entries, and human errors go unnoticed during aggregation, leading to frequent miscalculations and unreliable financial insights.

  • Lack of time for strategic thinking

    Teams are stuck processing numbers instead of analyzing them. Valuable time that should be spent on deeper analysis and countermeasures is lost in trying to make sense of aggregated results.

  • System overload & performance issues

    When budgets, results, and forecasts are all stored in a single Excel file, it quickly exceeds system capacity leading to slow performance, crashes and wasted productivity.

  • Risky dependence on key individuals

    Heavy reliance on macros and customized scripts creates personnel-dependent workflows, making operations vulnerable when key staff leave or change roles.

  • Data silos & integration challenges

    Different departments and subsidiaries use inconsistent management items, classifications, and naming conventions, making it nearly impossible to consolidate data effectively.

  • Disconnected systems, cumbersome integrations

    Performance data from ERP, HR, and sales systems must be manually linked, creating a tedious and error-prone process that delays decision-making.

  • Lack of Flexibility in reporting

    Once a report is distributed via email, any modifications require manual redistribution. Tracking changes across different versions is chaotic, especially when organizational structures evolve.

  • Version control nightmares

    With constant modifications and multiple stakeholders, no one knows which Excel file is the “final” version—causing confusion, inefficiencies, and misalignment.

  • Unclear access & approval processes

    Managing user permissions, viewing rights, and approval workflows is complex, leading to security risks and lack of clarity on report status.

Sactona eliminates inefficiencies in traditional tools, offering near real-time insights, flexible decision-making, and seamless adaptability—all within a user-friendly Excel interface.
