When the BI report reconciles to the penny,
your team will stop exporting to Excel.
For CFOs, FP&A managers, Controllers, and Treasury teams who have learned, through experience, that no BI system has yet matched the auditability of their spreadsheet models. We start by earning the reconciliation, not promising it.
We Speak Your Language
Excel is not the problem. It is the institutional memory of the company.
Finance professionals are the most rigorous data consumers in any organisation. You will not trust a BI report until it reconciles to the penny with your GL. Your Excel models are not a workaround. They are auditability, flexibility, and the encoded knowledge of years of close cycles.
Most BI initiatives in finance functions fail at the same moment: when the new report shows a number that does not match the spreadsheet. The system is then declared unreliable, the project is paused, and the team returns to the model that always reconciles. WizEmp builds reports that reach reconciliation before they reach the user.
The approach is augment first, replace never. The semantic model feeds the spreadsheet with governed data so the institutional models keep working. Then, gradually, the BI report demonstrates that it can answer the questions the spreadsheet was answering, with less risk and less manual work. The decision to retire a model belongs to the team that built it.

How Wit Interviews You
Wit asks Finance the questions Finance is rarely asked.
The Wit interview for Finance personas is structured, precise, and anonymous. It is designed to surface the decisions currently made on intuition, the spreadsheets nobody officially owns, and the reconciliation rituals that consume the last week of every month.
Finance personas respond to specificity. Wit does not ask "what would you like in your dashboard." Wit asks what financial decision you currently make based on gut feel that you wish you could make based on data. Wit asks what variance percentage triggers escalation, and whether that threshold is written anywhere. Wit asks what arrives last in your close cycle.
The interview is async and anonymous. A Controller can name the legacy reconciliation that has needed to be replaced for three years without naming the person responsible for keeping it alive. A CFO can describe the board number she trusts least without making it a political event.
The output is the Finance section of the Shield of Truth: signed definitions for every revenue, margin, and cost figure that matters; the close timeline mapped to data arrival; the reconciliation work that the new architecture must preserve; and the decisions the report is built to support.
