Challenge	The large number of banks and bank accounts is a result of the growth strategy of Encavis AG. Since 2011, it has increasingly been buying small solar and wind parks throughout Europe. When a new company was acquired, so was its existing bank and account structure. This led to a decentralized treasury landscape with multiple e-banking solutions and tokens. Encavis decided to reorganize the IT infrastructure to centralize group-wide bank account management and streamline all payment transactions. The selection process started in the third quarter of 2018, and the decision was made in December to adopt the TIS platform. The roll-out began in January 2019. Read More

Solution	Encavis adopted several TIS solutions, including Bank Transaction Manager, Bank Account Manager, Bank Statement Manager, and Business Discovery Manager. These solutions provided complete transparency and control of group-wide bank accounts and payments, including HR payments. The TIS platform enabled more efficient processing of all payment transactions and supported Encavis's growth strategy through acquisitions by allowing quick connection of new subsidiaries. The centralized platform also helped manage staff changes and compliance requirements, providing an audit trail for signature authorizations. The treasury team can now control local account authorization from Hamburg or virtually access the platform anywhere in the world. Read More Log in to view content
