Unique climbing experience company invests in digital to expedite financials and underpin expansion strategy.
Business software consultancy, Percipient, today announced that innovative climbing experience leader, The Climbing Hangar, has deployed Sage Intacct. As well as providing an integrated platform from which to streamline its financials, the solution will facilitate greater transparency and intelligence, while scaling to support ambitious growth plans for the company, which currently operates eight sites across the UK.
The Climbing Hangar previously used Sage 50 for its accounting needs. However, as its growth trajectory gained pace, its executive team needed a smarter and more efficient means of gathering intelligence and driving business decisions.
The team selected Sage Intacct based on its integrated financials, particularly the PO functionality, and drill-down capability to access detail so that site teams can view insights quickly. Having looked at Sage 200, SAP and NetSuite as part of its procurement process, Sage Intacct was considered to be the best fit, with the most flexibility to support both current and future needs.
Sage Intacct forms a fundamental part of our digital strategy, delivering the speed, intelligence and flexibility from which to run our business, and through its dashboards and reporting, deliver a consolidated view of performance across all of our centres.
Accounting Software for Leisure
Now live, The Climbing Hangar has greater control and access to intelligence to allow the leisure specialist to get ahead of its growth curve. Teams can distil the right data from which to run the business, create management accounts concisely, and view P&L in varying levels of detail on dashboards which business users across the organisation can view as appropriate. This capability affords greater visibility and allows the team to react more quickly to trends and anomalies in order to capitalise on opportunities and mitigate risk.
“Over the last couple of years we have been focused on digital transformation within the business and have invested in both our tech and marketing teams, including the appointment of our CTO last year,” comments Laura Johnson, Commercial Financial Controller at The Climbing Hangar. “Sage Intacct forms a fundamental part of our digital strategy, delivering the speed, intelligence and flexibility from which to run our business, and through its dashboards and reporting, deliver a consolidated view of performance across all of our centres.”
