AXIOM BUDGET SYSTEM

CU Denver and CU Anschutz Medical Campus’s New Budget System: Axiom by Syntellis

CU Denver and CU Anschutz Medical Campus have teamed up with the consultants at Syntellis to customize and implement a new state of the art budget system, Axiom:

“Axiom Software is an enterprise performance management tool that arms finance teams and executives with the best tools for budgeting, forecasting, planning, reporting, and more. Finance teams using Axiom Software are more agile and spend more time analyzing data to better understand the drivers that affect their organizations.”
 
The Axiom system will improve the capabilities and coordination of the entire budgeting and planning process for all schools and colleges and both central budget offices at CU Denver and CU Anschutz Medical Campus. The Axiom system supports the following processes:
    - Operational Budget
    - Labor Planning
    - Campus Allocations
    - School Allocations
    - In-Year Forecasting
    - Budget Requests
    - Commitments
    - Long Range Planning
    - Tuition Planning
    - Reporting
