Any centralised government budget process is highly complex, time-consuming, cumbersome, and requires painstaking precision.

This means that timely and accurate reporting and analysis is a challenge because data is dispersed across numerous systems. This tedious process hampers departments’ ability to respond rapidly to fast-emerging needs.
