Principles of Finance Transformation…..
B C D
We use these concepts to design the Finance Target Operating Model (TOM)
A
Delivering Finance Transformation
Process Alignment
- Procure to Pay
- Tax to Collect
- Order to Cash
- Record to Report
- Hire to Retire
Data Standardisation
Build Capability
Aims to reduce the cost of finance to around 0.45%-0.60% of total spend
Achieve a balance between operational efficiency, control and business intelligence
Facilitate the industrialisation of processes and reduce non value added back office costs delivering value to the citizen
Consolidate Eco-systems - Transactional Systems Financial: ERP, Banking, Scanning, Indexing, ePayments, eInvoicing Operational: Procurement, Tax Calculation- Business Intelligence ETL, OLAP, Canned Reporting, Dashboards, DSS

Opportunities: OSS Finance Transformation & the Public Sector
Transactional Systems
Higher levels of integration to operational systems
Reduced customisation across multiple platforms
Data Standardisation
Common and aligned data sets to analyse information across the public sector (and information requests)
Standardisation of Finance interfaces
Supports Open Data Initiative
Processes Alignment
Common processes for common activities – design, documentation, system enhancements
Economies of scale and increased automation lead to reduction in FTE's
Cost of Ownership
Opportunity to outsource back office
Reduction in licensing and maintenance costs
Knowledge
Transferable skill sets between departments
Standardised interfaces
Business Intelligence
Opportunity to deliver BI across a simplified landscape
Publish BI to citizens via Open Data
OSS addresses many of the challenges of the ICT Strategy
OSS facilitates the re-use of applications and off the shelf software
OSS facilitates interoperable systems and open standards
OSS facilitates a more level playing field for integrators based on capability rather than product ownership/control
OSS reduces risk as investment in projects is lower at every point in the project

Some Thoughts for Further Investigations
Add OSS applications to the Public Sector Application Store
Engage OSS professionals to advise / assist with steering
Utilise OSS ERP Professionals to assist with Process Documentation & Re-engineering in preference to a multi national consultancy
Symbiotic partnership between government, innovation and OSS
