When Air Force Association’s Board of Directors kept asking: “Why does it take you a whole month to provide us up-to-date financials?” AFA’s leadership began replacing their aging technology with modern, cloud-based solutions. (Specifically: Fonteva Membership built on Salesforce for member services, and Sage Intacct for accounting.)
Moving to these cloud-based solutions took Air & Space Forces Association (AFA) one giant step forward, but moving data back and forth between the new applications still proved too time-consuming. And, while the sheer volume of records was daunting, the complexity of AFA's accounting needs multiplied it.
Teaming up with Venn Technology to maximize the capabilities of the excellent cloud-based solutions it had chosen, AFA now has a robust integration that fulfills the organization's needs without labor-intensive, human intervention.
The Air & Space Forces Association provides career, financial, health, legal and other services to its 120,000+ current and former USAF members in 49 states—while also educating the public on the aerospace power’s critical role to a strong national defense.
Venn is proud to have had the chance to play a small part in helping AFA in its mission.
“Now we have up-to-date numbers every day. When the finance team walks into work they can get the numbers while still drinking their first cup of coffee. No more manual export/import of data.” — reports AFA’s CFO, Joseph Stangl, adding “Venn did a great job defining the scope. They took the time to fully understand the result we wanted. And they were exceptionally collaborative throughout the process.”
