The competition projects were evaluated by a professional jury consisting of the executives from major companies and industry associations. Key evaluation criteria included scale, timeframe, labor costs, quality of work, and the economic impact of implementation, uniqueness, and innovation.
In IBS and RZD-Medicine project the “1C:CPM” system served as the core software solution. It was used to create a unified corporate mechanism for monitoring and managing the budgeting process, which improved resource efficiency and reduced manual labor and errors in primary data collection.
The uniqueness of the project was in the construction of a comprehensive, highly complex and detailed budget model, tailored to the specifics of the company's operations and scale.
The project encompassed 69 private healthcare institutions from 71 constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Each institution included several structural divisions (SDs), so the "Organizational Units" directory contained 650 elements. The system also included the option to apply a more detailed financial structure — decomposing SDs into financial accounting centers with a projected number of up to several thousand elements. In total, the project involved 1,200 automated workstations. The labor costs for project implementation amounted to 35,000 man-hours.
The implemented system includes the following functional blocks: budget formation, consolidation, and analysis; forecasting; strategic planning; comparative scenario analysis; and a universal report for various report types. Despite the functional richness and methodological complexity of the budget model, the customer's business objectives were achieved primarily through the standard functionalities of “1C:CPM”.
“For such large-scale healthcare network as ours, improving budget planning efficiency is paramount. Winning such a significant competition proves that we're on the right track. The project's implementation has already enabled RZD-Medicine to achieve complete technological independence from foreign software, accelerate the receipt of management reports, and create opportunities to reduce operating and administrative costs,” emphasized Elena Proncheva, Deputy Head of the Economics and Finance Department of RZD-Medicine.
“We are pleased that the IBS and RZD-Medicine project was recognized as one of the most significant 1C solution implementations of 2024. This victory is another confirmation of our team's professionalism and expertise, as well as our readiness to implement complex, integrated projects for large businesses. The project's success would have been impossible without close collaboration with RZD-Medicine and the partners' involvement at every stage. Most importantly, the implementation of the automated budgeting system has already yielded tangible economic benefits,” said Elena Sayapina, Managing Partner of IBS Business Consulting Division.
