Dated system leads to errors

Over the years, Quicksilver outgrew a Microsoft Dynamics GP system dating back to the 1990s. Bank reconciliations and intercompany transactions across six entities became increasingly time-consuming as Quicksilver expanded. Reporting meant a lot of error-prone manual data manipulation in Excel, while the monthly close dragged out for nearly a month.

Using Microsoft Dynamics GP became a struggle. We weren’t getting what we needed out of a system that we were investing quite a bit of money in.

Achieving the “Holy Grail”

Quicksilver is using Sage Intacct dimensional reporting to achieve its “Holy Grail” – individual profit and loss (P&L) reports for each of its hundreds of vehicles. Slice-and-dice reporting has allowed Quicksilver to spot vehicle insurance overpayments, while reporting insights also helped the company trim excess workers’ compensation insurance costs.

We’re very excited to have implemented a system in Sage Intacct that’s paid off 10-fold for us.

A platform for expansion

Using Sage Intacct, Quicksilver has cut its monthly close by 50%, from 28 days to 14 days, while it estimates that overall accounting efficiency is up by 75%. With the time savings, Maggie can focus on value-add initiatives like Sage Intacct dashboards for Quicksilver leaders.

We’re able to look at expanding to new locations and scaling the business with Sage Intacct.
