London, UK / Dallas, TX / Dublin, Ireland, Apr 17, 2012 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- Trintech, a leading global provider of integrated software solutions for the Last Mile of Finance, is pleased to announce that PPG Industries Europe has selected and successfully implemented Trintech's AssureNET solution to improve its balance sheet reconciliation process. AssureNET is a component of Trintech's Unity platform, a suite of modular software that empowers companies to automate their Last Mile of Finance to increase efficiency, improve visibility, shorten cycle times, lower costs, and reduce risk.

PPG Industries Europe businesses drivers were: Improve visibility Consolidate & standardize the GL process in EMEA Increase efficiencies & shorten cycle times Implement operational controls Automate reconciliations, balance sheet close, financial reporting & compliance processes Leverage efficiencies for value added activities & employee satisfaction Managed Hosted Solution PPG Industries Europe selected Trintech after a thorough review of the market and RFP process. Michal Svec, SSC GL Manager, PPG stated "We were looking for an established partner with a proven track record and a strong presence in Europe. Our solution needed to be user-friendly, fit our requirements, integrate with our IT landscape (Oracle and SAP) and provide a swift and smooth implementation." Trintech engaged professionally and consistently with the PPG team in Brno, Geneva and Amsterdam throughout the sales process. Trintech's continued participation at industry led shared service centre events in Europe and positive references comforted us in our choice. PPG also selected the managed hosting services of Trintech in support of their IT Team.

According to Michal Svec, the Account Reconciliation project has met the expectations "At PPG Industries Europe, we replaced in 3 months the existing manual processes and spreadsheets with a single web platform. And one month after the AssureNET go-live, PPG Industries Europe Shared Service Center gained efficiency improvements in General Ledger to Sub-Ledger reconciliations and experienced major improvements in the controlling of process completeness." This enabled PPG Shared Service Centre in Czech Republic to increase their levels of service to the wider PPG organization.

"Trintech's AssureNET enabled us to re-engineer our business and deliver a streamlined, standard process across all countries, providing the ability to tighten controls and deliver a single process in EMEA region. The 50 user strong team is now reconciling more efficiently and effectively. Without the automation and control of the AssureNET solution PPG would not have been able to meet one of the key project goals which was to improve managerial visibility into the balance sheet reconciliations" said Rob Jongbloed, Corporate & Regional Business Controller, EMEA, PPG Industries Europe.
