The Challenge

As a traditional services provider, Consero relied on multiple, disconnected tool stacks, creating inefficiencies and complexities. Managing these tools manually across clients limited their ability to scale and increased operational costs. Their pain points included:

• Complex and time-consuming manual finance tasks

• Limited scalability without increasing headcount

• Managing diverse tool stacks across clients

• An inability to meet growing client demands efficiently• Reduced profitability due to high overhead costs

Consero needed to transition from a service-heavy model to a scalable, tech- driven solution that could improve operational efficiency and profitability.

The Solution

thinkbridge collaborated with Consero to design and implement the SIMPL platform — a unified services delivery platform that integrated various finance and accounting tools into a single, easy -touse system. The platform automated key tasks and introduced AI-driven processes that allowed for exception-based reviews, simplifying the management of multiple accounts and reducing manual workloads.

Key features of the SIMPL platform included:

Unified Tool Integration: SIMPL integrated all necessary finance and accounting functions into one platform, eliminating the need to manage multiple tool stacks. This reduced operational complexity and streamlined service delivery.

• AI-Powered Automation: AI tools were used to automate repetitive finance tasks, such as invoice processing, reconciliations, and reporting, allowing employees to focus on more strategic activities.

• Exception-Based Review Process: The platform’s AI-driven system transformed manual reviews into exception-based reviews, only flagging anomalies for human attention. This dramatically reduced the need for comprehensive manual reviews.

• Real-Time Insights: SIMPL provided real-time dashboards and analytics for both clients and internal teams, enabling better decision-making, faster responses to financial issues, and improved financial reporting accuracy.
