    As explained in the case study, Computer Aid has realized the following benefits through the implementation of Microsoft Dynamics AX:

    Their billing cycle time was reduced by 50%, resulting in acceleration of cash flow.

    Their delinquent timesheets were reduced to less than 1% of all timesheets collected, resulting in improved visibility of project costs and budgets.

    IT support costs were reduced by over $400,000 per year, resulting in a lower ongoing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of their IT systems.

    A self-service business intelligence model was deployed using data cubes and Excel PowerPivot, providing enhanced reporting and analysis capabilities to key employees and eliminating 250 spreadsheets that were manually updated for reporting purposes.

    "Computer Aid has been a fantastic organization to work with," explained Rita Clinton, US Country Manager for Systems Advisors Group.
