Financial Modelling & Simulation
Solving the Modern Challenge of Rating & Revenue Modelling
Local governments and large organisations face growing complexity in how they model revenue, forecast policy impacts, and prepare annual rating or pricing schemes. Traditional tools - such as spreadsheets or legacy systems - struggle to keep pace with increasing data volumes, intricate policy rules, and the need to provide fast, defensible advice to decision-makers.
Analysts are often required to:
Evaluate complex policy options under tight timeframes
Maintain full auditability and accuracy
Respond rapidly to executive and community queries
Manage multi-year trends and long-term financial impacts
Produce outputs ready for billing, consultation and governance
These processes become slow, manual, and error-prone without a modern, structured modelling environment.
Rates Modelling as a Service (RMaaS) solves this problem by providing a secure, high-performance platform that unifies scenario modelling, calculation, analytics and governance - purpose-built for rating and revenue analysis.
