Accelerating financial innovation with AI in government
Discover how an innovative approach to managed services is helping agencies enhance their financial processes and maximize value

In today's fast-paced and intricate world, staying on track is a formidable challenge for leaders. Constant changes in costs, technology, talent, risks, and competition seem to be the only constant. Rather than aiming to get ahead, the focus often shifts to simply keeping up.

Nowhere is this struggle more pronounced than in the finance function. Finance teams must control costs, ensure regulatory compliance, optimize strategic investments, and deliver timely insights. But they must also leverage new technologies and support innovations for their own operations and the government overall. It’s a high-demand balancing act that has overwhelmed many finance teams amid skills gaps, outdated systems, and stubborn operational inefficiencies.

The result: A growing divide between what’s expected of finance teams and what they are producing. To bridge this gap, many organizations are turning to modern managed services as a way to rapidly elevate key finance functions, resolve pain points, improve productivity, and accelerate growth.

It’s an approach that KPMG calls Finance-as-a-Service (FaaS), and it’s delivered with an AI-first mindset from Day 1. This model provides organizations with agility and flexibility by offering full-service coverage across finance’s key functions.

OUR CAPABILITIES

Why choose Finance-as-a-Service?

Finance as a Service (FaaS) is an enhanced service delivery model that gives agencies and OCFO organizations rapid access to highly skilled talent and leading-edge technologies. FaaS helps agencies transform their finance operations by deploying powerful AI capabilities and cloud-based solutions, guided by skilled teams that bring significant domain and industry expertise. FaaS delivers robust, full-service coverage across finance’s three core functions—with impressive results:

01
Upstream and transactional processes

These are the critical day-to-day details of finance operations: inventory management, invoice tracking, revenue collections, contract management, and more.

02
Intelligent close

By linking directly with the transactional processes, FaaS users dramatically improve the speed, accuracy, and efficiencies of closing the books.

03
Intelligent performance management

This is AI-enabled FP&A, delivering faster, more accurate, and more valuable planning and insights for the entire organization.

Benefits of FaaS

The FaaS model enables organizations to elevate their Finance operations and generate results quickly. Services are uniquely designed and deployed to match each organization’s needs, delivered by skilled professionals who bring both industry and functional know-how. This enhanced new approach to Finance enables government to focus on their mission statement, with several benefits:

1

Immediate access to leading-edge AI technologies, cloud-based solutions, and enterprise data capabilities

2

More predictable operating costs going forward and opportunities to reduce legacy tech debt and overhead

3

Increased transparency via more dynamic financial strategies and insights

4

Improved productivity by enabling operational excellence

5

Accelerated growth by facilitating more agile and effective investment allocations
