WHY IT MATTERS NOW

Our Solutions
tailor-made for your industry, function, and business role
Link Budgets with Strategic Outcomes
Neubrain’s Performance-based Budgeting solution not only automates and streamlines traditional budgeting processes but also unifies cost-based budgeting with performance goals. Your organization can immediately leverage the solution’s best practice frameworks, or you can tailor the features to readily accommodate your requirements.
Forecast Every Position, Down to the Last Dollar
Salaries and benefits are the largest share of your budget, and the hardest to get right. Build multi-year forecasts position by position, see exactly where vacancies are tying up funds, and break costs down by salary, retirement, insurance, and taxes. When budgets are tight and scrutiny is high, you’ll have numbers you can stand behind.
Shorten Budget Cycles and Reduce Errors
Our Operating Budget software solution includes a rich set of features and functionality to implement a powerful and user-friendly system that can accommodate customers’ unique requirements and needs. The solution automates the creation of the base budget and any supplemental requests or service level changes. It is capable of housing multiple parallel organizational hierarchies and roll-up levels (performance-oriented, organizational, departmental, and others).
Build a Capital Plan You Can Defend
Score and rank every capital request against your priorities, so the strongest projects rise to the top of the budget. Build a multi-year capital improvement plan, see where projects are on a map, and track each one’s budget and progress. Neubrain connects to your financial, project, and grants management systems, so every project is budgeted and tracked down to the detail.
Infuse the Power of Predictive Analytics into Business Operations and Decision-making
Our solution automates current year projections and long-term forecasting activities. It's possible to set up unique forecasting methods for each account type, group, fund/fund balance, cost center, etc.
Allocate Every Dollar, Accurately and Defensibly
No two organizations allocate costs the same way. Neubrain lets you build allocation plans for both direct and indirect costs that match your rules, using the drivers that make sense for each service, like legal hours, FTEs, square footage, or vehicle count. Run step-down allocations against both actual and budget data, see exactly where costs land by department, and catch mapping errors before anything posts to the general ledger.
Report on Every Dollar, From Fund Totals to Source Transactions
Produce financial statements, budget-versus-actual reports and dashboards from the same data you plan with, so every number matches. Drill down from fund to department, program and position, then drill through to the original payroll, ERP and procurement transactions. Pivot any view, export to Excel, or schedule reports to arrive by email.
All solutions, One Platform
Every module runs on the same governed data, so budgets, positions, capital projects, forecasts, allocations, and reports all tie out without exports or reconciling spreadsheets. Change a number once, and it flows everywhere it’s used, from the budget request to the dashboard a council member sees.
Defense and Federal
Replace spreadsheets and rigid legacy tools with a single platform for Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE). Build your budget request by appropriation, carry it across the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP), and generate Congressional Budget Justification (J-Book) exhibits directly from the same data. Drill from appropriation down to program element, and know every exhibit matches the budget it supports.
State and Local Government
Our solution connects your performance information sources, providing a complete view of how your organization is doing and projecting where it needs to be for the future.
Nonprofits and Authorities
Our solution for nonprofit organizations helps gain better insights into costs, donation sources, and finances, and create accurate financial projections. Ultimately all these factors will help the organization function at an efficient level, achieve compliance, and improve its attractiveness to donors...
Manufacturing
Our solution focuses on overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) metrics in three core areas: availability, performance, and quality.
Shorten Time to Launch and Deliver More Value with Solutions Tailored to Your Industry
Neubrain has created various solutions for different industries, all using our deep subject matter expertise. Our solutions help you answer crucial questions: What is happening or trending now? How can you improve on it? How can you differentiate your organization and stay ahead of the competition?
Ask Why. Get the Answer, with Sources.
Ask a question in plain language, like “Why is overtime over budget?”, and the Neubrain AI Agent answers in seconds. It breaks the variance into its drivers, charts the result, and cites exactly where every number came from, whether that’s payroll actuals, position control, or the general ledger. Because every answer draws from the same governed data as your budget, you can act on it with confidence.
Every Measure Tied to Its Cost
Set targets for the measures that matter most, track them in real time, and see at a glance which are on track, at risk, or off track. Every measure links to its cost, like cost per request resolved or cost per hire, so you can see whether performance is improving efficiently, not just improving. Roll measures up to your strategic goals for a clear, organization-wide view.
Dashboards That Answer the Next Question
Explore your data visually, then drill from organization-wide totals down to departments, divisions, and individual transactions. Hover over any figure to see how it changed from last year and what’s driving it. Build your own dashboards, KPIs, scorecards, and reports with simple drag and drop, so anyone can create and share them without writing code.
Connect Your Systems. Trust Your Numbers
Most of the effort in any analytics project goes into gathering and reconciling data. Neubrain connects directly to the systems you already run, including your ERP and general ledger, HR and payroll, procurement, and CRM, and brings everything into one governed data model with a single chart of accounts. Every load is validated automatically, so budgets, actuals, positions, and performance measures all tie out before anyone uses them.
