As the summer term enters its final weeks, the looming BFR deadline creeps ever closer…

We know how much of a faff the BFR is – and when you’re juggling inconsistent assumptions, tight deadlines, and disconnected systems, it can feel harder than it needs to be.

But the truth is, it doesn’t have to be stressful. And it certainly shouldn’t take days to complete.

At IMP, we’re all about taking the faff out of MAT finance – and that includes your BFR. With IMP Planner’s BFR wizard, over 500 MATs are simplifying the process, significantly reducing the time and effort required to prepare their BFR submission. In this session, we’ll show you how.

Here’s what our customers say:

“And to top it all off it’s shaved at least 2/3rds of the time off of the BFR form as well!”
“I love the BFR template which has saved me at least a days work and headaches.”
“I absolutely love the BFR template – it has to be the new ‘must have’ for all CFO’s out there!”
But IMP Planner goes far beyond the BFR. In this session, you’ll also see how it can help you:

  • Centralise all budgeting data into one platform – no more switching between systems
  • Remove the faff from the process and produce your BFR return seamlessly
  • Apply consistent assumptions and budget drivers across all schools with MAT-level control
  • Empower continuous forecasting – shape next year’s budget at the same time
  • Integrate seamlessly with your finance system – eliminating Excel chaos
  • Ensure staffing data aligns with your payroll records, with simple payroll reconciliation
  • Utilise detailed financial reports via our reporting suite – track actuals and forecast future spending
  • Benchmark your trust and schools against peer groups using forward-looking budget data

If you’re ready to take the heat out of your BFR – and discover the only budgeting tool built just for MATs – join our upcoming webinar.
