Global Works Helps Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Improve AR
Considering AR had been growing for two years, we're very pleased. In fact, what started as an HPA project has expanded to having Global Works help us upgrade to v9.0 and implement the CBO and Open Referrals modules."
"We've come to really rely on Global Works."
Karen Bird, Vice President of Finance, Dana Farber Cancer Institute
Issue
When a turnover in management personnel coincided with the go-live of a new accounting system, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute experienced a growing increase in accounts receivables. The new management staff had not been involved in setup decisions for the new, complex system, nor had they received adequate training.

DFCI called in PricewaterhouseCoopers to assist with AR recovery. In turn, PwC recommended Global Works to provide system expertise.
