| 202 Moving to a Corporate Performance Management Solution (Workshop presented by Clarity Systems) |
| The American Bar Association is the largest voluntary professional association in the world. With more than 400,000 members, the ABA delivers several programs including law school accreditation, continuing legal education, and initiatives to improve the legal system for the public. With so many members and product offerings, the ABA was faced with a complex annual budgeting process. It recently became apparent that their old budgeting and reporting system did not provide the flexibility needed to handle the Association’s diverse programs so they began the process of examining other options. The program managers needed a real-time, web based budgeting system to deliver an accurate, complete and timely budget. Join Brian Laffey, Director of Financial Reporting and Systems, as he presents the budgeting problems that the American Bar Association faced, the methodology used to select the preferred budgeting vendor, and the benefits that they have achieved since going live with their new budgeting and reporting solution. |
