FundFlow is a real-time web-based financial

management tool that monitors forecast

estimates, workflow tracking, cost expenditures,

vendor invoices, and budget spending to

enhance project implementation success for

capital expenditure projects.

What is FundFlow?

Are you responsible for administering projects, or do you wind up

just managing greater numbers of increasingly complex

spreadsheets?

Are you having trouble cost segregating capital projects to take

advantage of accelerated depreciation?

Do you have an application that tracks your initial vendor/partner

budget estimates against actual invoices?

Are your existing central project financial tools easily available via

Intranet with a web interface? (No hard-to-update-and-manage

“thick clients” required)

Is FundFlow for You?

Are you able to immediately generate an accurate Construction In

Progress (CIP) report and capital spending forecast suitable for

your executive team / board of directors?

Do you have multiple project reports and spreadsheets that

sometimes conflict with each other?

Do you have non-budgeted, non-project-related expenses being

“thrown-in” to your projects?

Do you have timely project closure in order to start project

financial capitalization and depreciation?

Do you need FundFlow?

Budget Process (Optional):

• Submit multi project requests to comprise a wish-list for the fiscal year

planning, then submit list for a project approval process

• Finance department evaluates wish-list request and determines the

approved and non-approved projects to help establish a fiscal year BUDGET

• Projects are stored in the BUDGET location until they’re ready to be started

(only approved projects can be selected from this module)

• The BUDGET location also provides a view for updates and status history for

all projects throughout the fiscal year
