BLOG #2 A COMPLIANCE DEADLINE

 

CUSTOMER PROBLEM

A large Australian state government agency needed a lease accounting solution for their portfolio of more than 1,300 leases– which all needed to be compliant with the new AASB  16 / IFRS 16 accounting standards within a very tight deadline.

Due to the time taken to complete the RFP the Department had a mere three weeks between signing the contract and needing to Go Live so they needed advice, guidance and a system that was easy to set up and would deliver results quickly and efficiently.

The consequences of not being compliant are serious, compounding the pressure to have a system in place.

THEY CAME TO QUADRENT FOR A SOLUTION

Quadrent was able to deliver our lease accounting Software as a Service product, LOIS, within three weeks. Our experienced implementation team, consisting of Chartered Accountants with specific expertise in IFRS 16 expedited the project plan to ensure the time-frames could be met.

This involved:

  • additional resources;
  • a practical pragmatic approach to ensure the process worked;
  • leveraging the existing tools within LOIS;
  • best practices on setup;
  • and obviously extensive training for the Department’s finance team.

The combination of a very strong system but more importantly skilled practical resources delivered the outcome for the client within the timeframe.

Quadrent has both a SaaS product (LOIS) and a Managed service offering (LOISlite) for less complex clients depending on the number of leases a company has and the best solution for their business.  

We’d be delighted to help or have a chat anytime, so feel free to reach out for an initial discussion and free consultation.
