London, UK / Dallas, TX / Dublin, Ireland – April 13, 2011 – Trintech, a leading global provider of integrated software solutions for the Last Mile of Finance, released a detailed case study illustrating how international food retailer Delhaize Group has implemented its AssureNET GL software for financial process compliance. AssureNET GL is a component of Trintech’s Unity platform, a suite of modular software that empowers companies to automate their Last Mile of Finance to increase efficiency, improve visibility, shorten cycle times, lower costs, and reduce risk.

“AssureNET GL allows Delhaize Belgium to have greater visibility and control over our financial statements across all companies in our scope. This enhances our ability to ensure consistency and data quality, while reducing the work load associated with our monthly reconciliation work. AssureNET GL is an integral component of our Comprehensive Accounting Excellence program.” Said Laurent Carlier, Financial Accounting & Control Manager Delhaize Belgium.

AssureNET GL has provided Delhaize Belgium with a powerful and tailored solution for its accounting control operations, turning what was a complex and inefficient spreadsheet based exercise into a vital management tool, reducing error and enhancing productivity.” Said Tony Bethell, Trintech Vice President, EMEA.
