Suncorp Valuations achieves a 70% faster close with 60% less finance effort

PSA Success Story

Suncorp Valuations modernized its financial operations by replacing fragmented, manual processes with a single, connected platform – giving finance and leadership real-time visibility across hundreds of fixed-fee engagements while reducing close time and administrative effort.

Operating under fixed-fee models, Suncorp Valuations depends on timely, accurate financial insight to protect margins and manage delivery at scale. However, disconnected systems and manual workflows made it difficult for a lean finance team to keep pace with the organization’s growth. Key challenges included:

  • Fragmented, on‑premise systems for time, expenses, invoicing, and reporting
  • Desktop-only time entry and spreadsheet-based expense submissions
  • Inconsistent approval processes and limited governance
  • Significant manual reconciliation across more than 100 employees
  • Month-end close extending beyond three weeks, delaying KPI reporting into the following month

As leadership received utilization and margin data, opportunities to course-correct had often already passed – forcing reactive decision-making.

By implementing Upland PSA as a single source of truth for time, expense, invoicing, and analytics, Suncorp Valuations dramatically reduced manual effort and accelerated financial visibility across the business. Measurable outcomes included:

  • Approximately 70% reduction in month-end close time
  • Roughly 60% less manual finance effort through automation and real-time validation
  • KPI reporting available within days instead of weeks
  • An estimated two full-time equivalents saved per month, enabling scale without added headcount
  • Real-time visibility into utilization, margins, and performance across hundreds of concurrent engagements
