About the project
Before the start of the project, the YIT group of companies used 1C: UPP and a third-party financial accounting program. Preparing consolidated reporting was labor-intensive and time-consuming. Each legal entity of the concern used a different reference data system, so the reports contained different information, which affected the reliability of the data and did not allow for quick management decisions.
In order to improve the efficiency and quality of work, the YIT management decided to implement a new information system. The main condition was the ability to work according to uniform corporate standards in the execution of financial transactions by all Russian divisions of the concern.
An important role in choosing a contractor was played by assino’s project approach and the high level of competence of specialists, as well as compliance with international standards and the highest corporate standards of YIT and adherence to the global compliance policy.
