Public Sector Interim Financial Management Case Studies

Finance

Government department

The service levels of the Finance/Accounts department were unsatisfactory and as a result the organisation, systems and procedures needed a thorough overhaul. The interim, as the only qualified accountant, has re-organised and recruited to strengthen the team. A major project is underway to replace the IT system and new policies and procedures are being imported from the private sector (introduction of accrual accounting, forecasting, reporting against budget etc).
