Finance Data Warehouse, Calumo, Power BI and CDM
Brydens BI prides itself on long-term client relationships and developing a deep knowledge of client businesses and their industries. We deliver management reporting, budgeting, forecasting, automation, and business intelligence solutions custom-fit for each client. Then, we support and proactively evolve the solution as our clients grow and change.
Brydens BI specialises in implementing and supporting Finance Data Warehouses. We are experts in Calumo, a world-leading corporate performance management solution built on the Microsoft Business Intelligence Stack and hosted in the Microsoft Azure cloud. We also work extensively with Power BI and often build out and support the underlying database, related models and reporting needs.
We use Certent Disclosure Management (CDM) for external, numbers-heavy multi-author reports such as annual and half-yearly reports. CDM removes low-value activity, manages workflow, reduces risk and eliminates the nightmare that last-second journals can create.

This is an example financial report. Users can enter commentary, drill down on accounts, drill to transactions from a selected number, and there are links to review commentary by month, review numbers by department.

Leverage the full capabilities of CALUMO
CALUMO brings together data from multiple internal and external sources. It allows us to forecast workloads and enhances the quality and relevance of our Finance and Business reporting… a win for us and our clients.

Save time, boost analysis, and remove ‘boring’ work.
Data that had been difficult to consolidate, while accounting for currency is now, simply available and correct. And because Calumo connects directly to Xero it’s real-time

Push the Boundaries.
Our monthly cost allocation process was complex, time consuming and slow. We discussed with Brydens BI who not only understood it, they automated it for our next month end, with a nice interface for us to manage. What took two days each month end, is now always on.

Adopt 3-Way Rolling Forecasts
We have transitioned from a slow, painful annual budget process to a monthly rolling forecast with direct links from our Employee System, Online Revenue models and a reporting App used by the Executive. Our Budget is nearly done before we start.
Head of Finance, High Growth Start Up
“One of my favourite things about the Calumo platform is the ease of use. You always worry about custom builds, but in this instance, it was just building in our own processes and reports so that flexibility was amazing. Calumo was able to take what we are already doing, speed it up and automate it. That was several years ago, and the same people from our initial meeting are just a call, email or slack away. At one stage we wanted to incorporate data from our internal Data Warehouse… no problem at all.”
