Efficient processes with Workiva

Lucanet Disclosure Management expert software for financial reports
Lucanet Disclosure Management is a disclosure management system and publishing platform rolled into one. The expert software, developed in close collaboration with accounting specialists, works on a media-neutral basis. When it comes to creating financial publications, the application can be directly linked to the consolidation system. It’s suitable for online and print media, and guarantees a data pool of the highest quality. The software’s functionalities include numerical intelligence, rectifying rounding errors and doing automatic validations and consistency checks when data are imported. From the first data import through the integration of corrections to the production of the final version, you work more or less autonomously with Microsoft products. From MS Word, a robot generates flawless graphical layouts on the basis of pre-designed templates. Output in HTML/XBRL format and automatic SEC filing are also possible.
“The media production team stands for top service, where we closely support our customers throughout the entire production process – and right up to the finish line.”

Head of Media Production
Platform-based publishing with PublishingSuite®
PublishingSuite® is particularly suited to periodicals, but also to financial reports. It’s a rule-based platform that enables different users to work on the same publication simultaneously, wherever they’re located. It works on a web-based, multichannel and multiplatform basis. Content is imported for digital channels semi-automatically. The system is highly available and capable, and thanks to a state-of-the-art IT infrastructure and redundant data backups guarantees absolute data security. We run the platform as software as a service (SaaS), meaning the software is always at the latest stage of development.
“The collaboration with Linkgroup was very professional, constructive and highly responsive, even throughout intense times. The project management and the respective roles and responsibilities worked seamlessly, which is key for such a project in a global environment. Our top management wanted, in addition to print, to communicate our key reporting messages to our stakeholders in a more dynamic and multimedia way. Feedback from management has been uniformly positive, with the Board calling the new financial and sustainability reporting a ‘quantum leap’ forward. We are very grateful to Linkgroup for helping us to bring it to life.”
