Now is the time to embrace digital accounting. In today’s fast-moving business landscape, immediate access to financial data empowers faster, more informed decision-making.
Companies that delay digital adoption risk falling behind, while competitors leveraging cutting-edge financial tools adapt dynamically to changing conditions.
Traditional accounting often means working with data months out of date – reducing agility and limiting the ability to seize new opportunities or respond to risks. In contrast, real-time, automated financial systems integrate seamlessly with existing processes, providing a clear, up-to-date picture of your business health at all times.
Data-driven decisions, anytime, anywhere
With cloud-based digital accounting, your entire team can access live financial data via an app, eliminating the need to wait for reports or be tied to a desktop. Decision-making can happen on the factory floor, in meetings, or on the go – wherever it matters most.
One of the most significant benefits our clients experience is the ability to make decisions based on fact rather than gut instinct. Budget planning tools allow you to simulate various financial scenarios – for example, if you were to lose a big customer, or win a big contract, it enables your leadership team to see the financial impact instantaneously.
Even regulatory changes, such as the reforms to National Insurance announced in last year’s Autumn Budget, can swiftly be accounted for without the need for updated software.
Digital accounting – is it worth it?
One of the main barriers to change is familiarity – many businesses have used the same accounting systems for years and are hesitant to switch. The transition to digital accounting is a short-term effort for long-term gain.
Digital software will replicate the accounting practices used to date, offering significant enhancement to the company’s financial position. We at Champion remove the hassle and stress from digital transitions by employing a tried-and-tested third-party program – that’s very popular with our clients, as is the training we deliver to help our clients feel confident moving forward.
When it comes to specific software, Xero is one of our top recommendations. It’s intuitive, reliable, and has been refining its technology since its early days as a market leader. While other providers have worked to catch up, Xero has evolved, releasing regular iterations that are responsive to the needs of its users.
At Champion, we use these tools daily to support our clients. Our team is Xero-certified, so we can help our clients use and integrate the software and deliver strategic planning and guidance based on their unique and individual data outcomes.
How our management accounts team works with you
Leveraging digital software, our management accounts team will establish a robust, responsive, big-picture financial reporting system that gives you total clarity over your business’s financial health.
For example, we initially supported RSPCA Manchester and Salford in its compliance activities and year-end accounts. However, our remit for RSPCA soon grew. We supported the organisation’s switch to Xero and Dext, which immediately minimised needless duplication and provided transparency and control, which garnered positive feedback from charity organisers.
