Strategic alliance delivers new financials solution

Having provided asset management, billing, permits, licensing and customer relationship management solutions for Local Government in Australia since 1995, Hansen International Australasia has recently launched Hansen Financials. In a strategic partnership with Netherlands based Agresso, Hansen Financials offers all spheres of government a web based, fully integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution.

Hansen Financials powered by Agresso includes core financials, fixed assets, budgeting, procurement, project accounting, grant tracking, work orders, job costing, business intelligence modules together with workflow and performance reporting. By pulling together data management, business processes, analysis and reporting, any single change to a Council’s data or business processes can be immediately integrated across the solution.

Hansen International Australasia’s Managing Director, Reg Leonard, said with 60 government clients in the Asia Pacific region and 600 worldwide, Hansen is raising the bar for enterprise solutions.

“By integrating citizen-centric financials to support the increasing asset intensive nature of government operations, we are providing our clients with a single source for all their enterprise applications,” Reg Leonard said.

Agresso’s Vice President Product Marketing, Ton Dobbe, said that organisations want a system with agility, that is, it can easily adapt as new situations arise.

“They want a system that ‘goes with us as we change…that will meet today’s needs and anything that might hit us in the future,’” he said. “They do not want to be replacing systems every few years. They want a system that can adapt to any internal reorganisation or external change to reporting requirement.

“This combined solution offers our users faster decision making, rapid response to change, enhanced life of assets and optimised citizen service delivery.”
