RGZ started the White Paper Series to assist our clients with issues they face every day. In the future, we will be examining such issues as IT's role as a driver of business strategy, how to deal with the backlash from outsourcing, the social networking hype - is it real and can you really make a profit from it?, etc.The first volume of the series aims to assist financial and non-financial executives, managers and business analysts in identifying the opportunities, obstacles, risks and transformation issues facing their finance organizations as they contemplate, build and pursue their financial systems strategies.We found that organizations that do not have a coordinated strategy for future state financial systems create an environment that becomes a collection of many disparate systems and platforms with inefficient and manual processes. Instead of taking an end- to- end view to address these changes, companies will take a "band aid" approach by making piecemeal functional enhancements to existing systems.You can download Volume One of this White Paper Series for free by going to http://rgzsolutions.com/content/news-and-events/whitepapers.
