The need for integrated planning
In the dynamic world of the automotive industry, seamless planning is essential. CFO Erwin van Roon of Louwman Financial Services: "We were looking for a flexible and user-friendly planning tool that makes it easy to report and collaborate." In this regard, he emphasizes the importance of autonomy for the controllers: "This works best if the financial controllers can work with it without IT intervention and can set up the tool themselves as they wish."
Choice of Board Platform
The choice fell on Board: an all-in-one platform it business intelligence functionality. The platform can effectively process complex data sets from Louwman Group, from P&L to cash flows. Van Roon is enthusiastic about the tax-reporting solution: "We used to get tax information scattered around, now we do it centrally through Board for accurate reports and better tax insight."
"We wanted a planning solution from which you can efficiently report in different ways and collaborate well. Board makes that possible"
Trends in the mobility market
Van Roon points to the shift from car ownership to use and the rise of online car sales and electric vehicles. Louwman Group sees potential in Mobility as a Service (MaaS), where customers are given access to various means of transportation via an app.
