FTP Solutions Case Study
Client Overview
FTP Solutions is a leading provider of advanced communication solutions and network infrastructure, serving industries such as mining, agriculture, and telecommunications. Headquartered in Perth, Australia, the company operates across multiple regions, necessitating a seamless financial and operational management system.
Key Challenges Before MYOB Acumatica ERP Implementation
As FTP Solutions grew and expanded its operations across Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, it became clear that their existing financial management systems running in silos were no longer sufficient. They needed a modern, process-driven solution that would streamline financial reporting, automate project billing, and ensure compliance across
Evolving Financial Systems
As FTP Solutions expanded, they adapted multiple accounting platforms—AccountRight in Australia, a separate system in Canada, and Xero in New Zealand. While these systems served them well in the early stages, managing multiple platforms led to operational complexity and difficulties in consolidating financial data.
* Canada’s project billing system follows stringent tax compliance policies, requiring specific invoicing structures that differ from Australia’s more streamlined GST-based approach. Managing these variations manually became increasingly challenging, leading to operational inefficiencies and difficulties in consolidating financial data across regions.
Time-Intensive Financial Reporting & Consolidation
Generating accurate financial reports required extensive manual effort, taking up to a week per month and involving multiple spreadsheets and adjustments. This delayed insights and decision-making.
Project Billing Challenges in Canada
In Canada, project invoicing was particularly complex due to regional compliance policies and fragmented data sources. The process took up to two months, creating cash flow challenges and delays in revenue recognition.
Limited Real-Time Visibility
Decision-making was hindered by the absence of a centralised financial database. The finance team had to coordinate with different departments, leading to inefficiencies.
Payroll Management Complexity
Managing payroll across multiple locations required manual interventions, increasing the risk of discrepancies and compliance concerns.
Finding the Right Partner
FTP Solutions needed more than just software—they needed a partner who could understand regional compliance, automate processes, and deliver a tailored ERP implementation.
After an extensive search, AlphaBiz Solutions was chosen for their:
