Film Victoria has overhauled its ageing financial software by choosing Australian enterprise software specialist Evolution Business Systems (EBS) to deploy Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

EBS deployed Microsoft Dynamics NAV at Film Victoria, on time and under budget, during the final quarter of 2014.

“EBS has been very flexible through the development and implementation process. Their staff have worked hard to understand and meet our needs, and we are confident we now have a much improved system for funding and financial reporting,” said Greg Reeves, Film Victoria’s Head of Finance and Business Services.

Film Victoria is the State Government agency that provides strategic leadership and assistance to the film, television and digital media sectors of Victoria. It supports screen projects, practitioners and businesses to maintain and strengthen the state’s reputation as a competitive centre for screen production.

In 2013-14 film, television and games projects generated expenditure of more than $214 million in Victoria. Recent series and feature films supported by Film Victoria include Please Like Me, First Contact, The Mule, Healing as well as attracting international productions such as The Dressmaker and NBCU sci-fi series Childhood’s End and Hunters.

Through Games Development funding, Film Victoria supported Loveshack Entertainment with the production of their innovative narrative-puzzle game Framed, which has received critical acclaim and won the Visual Design Award at IndieCade 2014.

With growing demand for its services, Film Victoria decided to overhaul its funding programs, which meant upgrading its ageing financial software. After a detailed evaluation, Film Victoria chose EBS, a Melbourne-based company with extensive experience in deploying the Microsoft Dynamics NAV enterprise management software.

EBS Managing Director Paul Woods said integration was a driving factor for Film Victoria’s decision. “Film Victoria wanted both flexibility in its financial reporting and easy integration with Microsoft CRM to streamline their business processes,” he said.

“Microsoft Dynamics NAV provides Film Victoria with that reporting flexibility and ease of access so they can obtain key financial and funding information when they need it.”
