“NetSuite is the financial platform on which we can build significant global growth—enabling us to effectively plan and efficiently track our income and expenditure to help us achieve our mission of creating a world without poverty.” Peter Leau, Director of Finance & Operations, Transform Aid International

Improving Financial Accountability and Consolidation

Greater mission, greater accountability: Transform Aid International’s mission led to global expansion with the help of extensive local and international partners and alliances. This saw growing donation volumes and financial data from new jurisdictions, increasing the demand for new and more complex financial reporting and straining existing systems beyond their limits.

Lifting people out of poverty worldwide: To support its mission worldwide, Transform Aid International needed to better track and process growing transaction volumes through its supply chain. As it continues to grow and expand its projects globally, its new solution also had to scale, integrate with other digital assets and provide visibility for on-time budgeting and reporting.

Unified financials delivers proactive planning: Using NetSuite, Transform Aid International consolidated all transactions onto one shared accounting platform—allowing staff worldwide to access financial data from one source and enabling proactive planning of project budgets and fundraising campaigns. This has reduced the annual effort to consolidate donation data from weeks to hours.

Bringing on real global change: NetSuite’s platform has helped Transform Aid International to establish new subsidiaries, projects and partnerships with scalable, multinational financial systems that easily adapt to any situation. The organisation aims to continue using the solution to better drive projects, champion financial transparency for donors and meet financial compliance requirements as it continues to build lasting solutions to global poverty.
