Finance is no longer just a keeper of accounting transactions. In today’s highly competitive world, leading enterprises rely on Finance as a strategic differentiator. No wonder large and medium enterprises are transforming their F&A functions for the digital age. However, despite spending tens of millions of dollars, the outcomes are falling short of expectations. One reason is the lack of a holistic perspective of the structural underpinnings and many facets of finance and accounting functions.

A finance capability model is an essential blueprint to help Finance executives, Business and Enterprise Architects gain a comprehensive understanding of F&A based on foundational entities – the capabilities. Capstera’s accounting and finance business capabilities map is a structurally sound and internally coherent model.

What is the Value of the Finance Business Capabilities Map?

A business capabilities model is a fundamental and foundational entity in the business architecture continuum.

The Record to Report value stream has emerged as a mission-critical function, particularly in this data-driven digital age. The Capstera accounting and finance capability map encapsulates the essence of accounting and finance functions with a detailed, multilevel capabilities list.

There are several benefits from business capabilities, including, among others:

• Finance Executives can use it to create a fundamentally sound F&A Transformation Roadmap.
• Foster alignment between business and IT using capabilities as an everyday language.
• Capabilities are structurally sound and internally coherent abstractions of business functions.
• A capability-based roadmap eliminates redundancy and replication and focuses on capability evolution.
• Juxtaposing capabilities and systems/applications provide a footprint analysis and can lead to better application portfolio rationalization decisions.

The Accounting and Finance business capabilities map decomposes into three levels. 

Created by business architects and finance domain experts, the finance and accounting capabilities list is detailed, in-depth, and conforms to the construct of MECE (mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive).
