Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman | Government | 539 | $51M | United Kingdom | Infor | Infor Query and Analysis | Analytics and BI | 2013 |
In 2013, Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman implemented Infor Query and Analysis to provide Analytics and BI reporting as part of a bundled finance and procurement systems program. The deployment was delivered by TouchstoneFMS and was aligned with concurrent implementations of Infor SunSystems for core financial management, Professional Advantage iPOS eProcurement for purchasing automation, and Spindle Professional for electronic document delivery. Infor Query and Analysis was used to centralize reporting and to enable drill down analysis across finance and purchasing data.
Infor Query and Analysis was configured to report on transactional data from SunSystems and iPOS, providing business users with self-service query, drill down and period analysis capabilities. The procurement flow implemented with iPOS encompassed requisition through purchase order, receipt and three way invoice matching, and the Q&A reporting layer exposed those workflows for audit and operational review. Spindle Professional was implemented to deliver invoices, purchase orders and remittance advices electronically, reducing paper handling and supporting document retention within the transaction record.
TouchstoneFMS executed the project under a structured project management methodology with regular communications and documentation to meet an aggressive cutover timeline in advance of financial year end. Operational scope focused on finance and purchasing functions, improving visibility of spending activity and streamlining invoice processing to reduce manual administration and to improve supplier relationships. Governance changes included institutionalizing electronic document flows and embedding three way matching into procurement controls to support oversight and query resolution.
Outcomes called out by the organisation included complete oversight of spending activity, improved ability to analyse transactions, automation that reduces administration and allows PHSO to operate more efficiently, and electronic document delivery that reduces paper, postage and administration. The solution provided a supported finance platform and reporting capability that the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman positioned as foundational for future initiatives and strategic objectives, including increased insight into public sector performance and broader service delivery goals.
