With a LAKE SunSystems solution managers can analyse activity mapped against their own unique key performance indicators (KPI's) and business dimensions such as location, branch, cost centre, expense type etc. User-defined hierarchies can be used to aggregate and segment these KPI's and dimensions in line with actual or projected business models, giving managers a unique insight into every facet of their business.

At the click of a mouse the LAKE SunSystems solution allows you to produce reports from the same underlying database for all interested stakeholders; including board members, committees, management, budget-holders, employees, the public, the government, and regulatory authorities.

User-friendly web-based Reporting and Performance Management tools ensure that managers can uncover and analyse the trends, problems and opportunities that are often concealed in detailed transactional data. Within seconds they can understand the "who, what, when, where, why, and how" of their bottom line.

The LAKE SunSystems solution helps organisations bring spend under control. It provides managers and directors or partners with complete visibility of the cost pipeline and validates every purchase request and commitment against budget at any level. At the same time, transparent processes and sophisticated approval-routing, guarantee improved governance within a clear, structured, controlled spending policy.

The LAKE SunSystems solution is XML-enabled, and employs web portal self-service technologies to deliver information to employees, managers, partners, customers, and suppliers, helping them collaborate to drive the business forward.
