Sage ERP Accpac

The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria

Geneva, Switzerland

The problem

During the first 18 months of business, the volume and complexity of transactions carried out at The Global Fund was manageable in a Microsoft Excel workbook. With just one person entering and monitoring transactions, accountability for the completeness and accuracy of the bookkeeping was straightforward. But with rapid expansion in size and complexity came the need for a professional accounting package to provide the necessary rigour in bookkeeping, audit trail and financial reporting.

How Sage ERP Accpac helped

The Global Fund chose Sage ERP Accpac and Sage Business Partner SABIS Consulting Group to implement the solution. Its open architecture and modular design mean Sage Accpac has the flexibility to support The Global Fund’s rapid evolution and expansion, and the organisation has been pleased with the performance of its accounting tool. In addition, the multi-currency capability of Sage Accpac means The Global Fund can record, monitor and reconcile eight bank accounts in US dollars, Swiss Francs and Euros.

"It was clear that this solution would offer a good cost versus benefits ratio, and offered features, such as multi-currency, that suited a growing, international organisation. In addition, Sage and SABIS were very open to the idea of tailoring the modules precisely to our business needs."
