5. In today’s demanding environment where CFO’s are expected to play a
Quasi – CEO’s role, the ability to separate the clutter from what is
‘essential’becomes critical. IT when leveraged skillfully plays a strong
partner role to the CEO and the CFO. In this blog, Virender shares a
new concept of ‘Workspaces’ developed by Ramco and the
significance of Workspaces in delivering information to the CFO’s in a
simple, visual mode with the ability for the CFO to be able to identify
and work on ‘red flags’ well in advance.

In today’s scenario, with the number of emerging challenges that a
CFO has to deal with – globalization, diversity and changes in
regulations, stakeholder management, risk management and reporting,
it is becoming increasingly important to run a competitive finance
function that can help deal with the above.
This can only be achieved with a highly productive & performance
driven environment that can continuously guide the business with
sound, well-grounded numbers and related details; a responsibility that
percolates down the hierarchy to everyone in the function including
the middle, junior management and all the executive personnel.

7. We, at Ramco recognize this and have introduced a new concept of
‘Workspaces’ aimed at ‘Empowering a role to perform at his very best,
delivering optimal productivity and performance!’
Our ‘Workspaces’ provides various functions and roles with a unique
and completely refreshed user experience model steered by a data
driven interaction pattern and powerful visualizations. The work-
spaces do away with a typical software usage experience of menus
and screens; instead completely focusing around data and the actions.

8. A workspace presents actionable data and alerts in the form of a To-do
/ exception list. The key information together with the possible actions
is presented for various situations necessitating further actions. Also,
embedded within them are operational metrics that can aid in effective
decision support as well as serve as a means for a continuous
assessment and improvement. The designs are created with a no-clutter
philosophy with access to minutiae available on demand.
With an increasing complex environment and a myriad of challenges
for the function, this sure will help simplify life. As an aid to work
prioritizing and effectively managing information flows, a user will be
able to accomplish much more for less.

9. Overall, they strive to provide a stress free experience by presenting
the most needed information for a given context and an option to
seamlessly drill-thro’ to other enterprise functions and processes to
access more information
In the current context, where Finance has evolved, from being
traditionally viewed as a controlling role to, being viewed as an
enabling role; powerful tools such as Workspaces can be a huge
assistance for providing that deep visibility to operations and
decision making.

10. With continuous evolution in technology and related advancements,
there is a growing pressure on the CFO and his team to continuously
evaluate the benefits and return of an IT system, the associated risks
of data, obsolescence, security breaches etc. It is my firm view
however that furthering the productivity & efficiency improvements
for the finance function is and will always be a top consideration for
a finance leadership to convert this to an organizations’advantage!
