Axis - the door to meaningful financial analytics

Detailed profitability analytics are key to any successful business manager. Improvements can only be made once areas for improvement can be accurately identified.

  • Which clients/products are winners, or not and, importantly, why?
  • Which business processes need improvement?
  • Where should we invest?
  • Where can prices be adjusted?
  • Which services should be outsourced, which should be centralised?
  • Are the teams being adequately compensated?

The rigidity of core accounting systems are often a major hurdle when it comes to filtering out, allocating and weighting meaningful indicators. Workaround solutions using spreadsheets quickly prove unwieldy and error-prone.

The developers of AXIS, in their quest to get better analytics, originally developed the basics of the tool at their previous organisations, At Axcent, all this was brought together to create AXIS.

Axis Analytics is the ideal tool for in-depth process, client and product profitability analysis, and for delivering relevant key performance indicators regularly in a reliable, timely manner. With wider involvement of staff across the business, the results also carry wider ownership.

This makes Axis an indispensable management tool for strategic and business-critical decisions.

  • The future (simulations, planning/forecast)
  • Study of variants (calculation/scenarios)

Axis - straight forward to implement and operate

How Axis works

Data from different sources within the organisation are consolidated in the Axis Calculation Engine, then processed to quickly provide very detailed profitability numbers at the lowest level of products and clients. The technology provides ready interfaces for data transfers from source, allowing both one-time and periodic imports

Any visualisation engine (e.g. Tableau, Power BI and even Excel) can be used to create visually useful reports. The integrated Axis API also allows data transfer into existing proprietary reporting solutions

Implementation support

Axis provides flexibility in linking and modelling the results data to suit the user needs

With the variety of methods and reporting solutions availability, our experienced consulting team provides support during the important implementation phase in selecting what is most appropriate for you

The flexibility within Axis means it can usually be implemented within a matter of weeks.
