Castlethorn had the experience, projects, and ambition to support continued growth, while its reporting and planning processes needed more structure as the business became more complex. By partnering with Solver Ireland, Castlethorn built a scalable reporting and planning environment that brought data from different entities into one more consistent structure, reduced manual spreadsheet effort, and gave the finance team stronger visibility across the business as the company prepared for its next phase of growth.
Case Studies
How the Irish Tax Institute Freed Its Finance Team from Manual Reporting
The Institute had long relied on Microsoft Dynamics GP and Management Reporter, supported by Excel spreadsheets for reporting and planning. Solver introduced a more structured reporting environment, reducing the need to build and circulate large multi-tabbed spreadsheets by email each month. Departmental packs that once required days of spreadsheet work can now be produced more consistently from one reporting structure, helping the finance team reduce errors, speed up month-end reporting, and give leadership more reliable access to financial information.
How BGSF Improved Budgeting and Forecasting with Dynamics 365 and Solver
BGSF had a strong foundation in Dynamics 365, along with the scale and ambition to support continued growth. Solver added the structured budgeting, forecasting, and reporting layer needed to move planning out of Excel, reduce manual model maintenance, and give the finance team a more consistent view of performance across the organisation. The project shows how finance teams can build on existing systems and bring more structure to financial planning processes as the business grows.
How a Manufacturing Finance Team Improved Reporting and Budgeting Accuracy Without Adding Complexity
Phoenix Mecano operates across multiple industries, with reporting and budgeting requirements that need to reflect a complex product and operational structure. Dynamics 365 Business Central provided a strong foundation, while Solver added the structured reporting and planning layer needed to reduce manual adjustments, improve budgeting consistency, and make reports easier to create, adapt, and maintain. The project shows how finance teams can build on systems already working well, while giving reporting and budgeting processes the structure needed to support a more complex business.
How Barnardos Built a Scalable Charity Financial Reporting Model with Solver
Barnardos needed a reporting and planning structure that could support restricted funding, payroll allocations, regional budget inputs, board reporting, and funder accountability. With Solver, the finance team built a scalable reporting model that reflects the complexity of charity finance in Ireland.
