Walker is a leading global provider of financial, operational and analytical solutions aimed at helping companies better manage their business performance.
Walker specialises in the development, implementation and support of financial software. Its e-business applications and solutions, combined with its integration and consulting services, are used by Fortune 500 and FT 500 organisations in industries such as banking and financial services, paper, retail, public sector, transportation and utilities.
Walker's products are separated into two distinct product areas - the Deep e-business solutions suite and the Horizon suite.
Walker's
Deep e-business solutions
Walker's Deep e-business solution is one of the most scalable e-business
applications available on the market today. Walker's solutions exploit an
open, scalable architecture that enables companies to collaborate across
diverse technical, application software and business partner environments.
The three components of Walker's Deep e-business solutions are
e-procurement, e-revenue and e-insight. Walker's e-procurement streamlines
purchasing and automates the entire procurement process, from requisition to
payment, allowing buyers to focus on more strategic procurement processes.
Walker's e-revenue extends the reach of your customer processing and
information to your customers to build customer loyalty and competitive
advantage. Walker's e-insight provides "one version" of the financial truth,
sophisticated financial analysis, collaboration, distribution, and complete
web based reporting.
Walker's Horizon Suite
Horizon is a suite of analytic applications for enterprise financial
management & planning, including financial consolidation, budgeting,
planning, reporting and forecasting. Horizon blends the flexibility and
power of OLAP technology with accounting integrity and controls to go beyond
the limited capabilities of proprietary general ledger packages,
spreadsheets, decision-support tools and conventional budgeting and
consolidation systems. Horizon clients include Halifax Plc, Christie's
International, Barclays Wealth Management, EMAP plc, Royal Mail, PowerGen,
Standard Life.
What our Partners say
"Forward-looking companies are looking for an open,
flexible, and reliable platform on which to base their e-business. IBM's
WebSphere software platform for e-business and Walker's Deep e-business
solutions work together to help organisations transform their core business
processes to become sophisticated e-businesses."
Paraic Sweeney, vice president, Business Transformation, IBM Software
Group
What our clients say
Walker offered us the greatest potential to make a quantum
leap in our financial reporting and its distribution over the web. We chose
Walker over its competitors due to the functionality of its management
reporting product."
Chris Newman, Group Financial Projects Accountant, EMAP Publishing
What the Analysts say
"With proven technology and products available today,
Walker has a great opportunity to become a change agent for companies
undergoing the e-business transformation process in order to capitalize on
advanced applications like online procurement and electronic bill
presentment and payment. The new e-business applications from Walker should
help companies make that transition much more quickly than if they had to
develop on their own or rely on client-server vendors still seeking to
Web-enable their products."
