ERP migrations that stall
MS Dynamics 365 BC and SAP S/4HANA projects miss milestones because no one bridges finance processes and IT delivery.
When the effort is producing numbers not putting them to work — that's a process problem.
fuegner.finance combines senior Finance & Controlling expertise with hands-on AI automation — so your team spends less time on routine work, and more time on decisions that matter.

Day — operational from day one
The Real Problem
Most finance organizations aren't slow.
They're stuck.
Management flying blind
Fragmented data across subsidiaries and legacy systems means decisions get made on gut feel, not numbers.
Closings that take too long
HGB/IFRS closings consuming 9+ days and too many people — because process debt never got paid down.
Finance that can't scale
Liquidity planning and working capital bottlenecks that grow faster than headcount can solve them.
These are solved problems — for someone who speaks Finance and technology in equal measure.
What I Do
Five service areas. One integrated approach.
Interim Management
Stepping in as Interim Head of Finance or BU Controller — fully operational from day one, so nothing waits while you find the right permanent hire.
DetailsERP Implementation & Harmonization
Guiding and rescuing ERP migrations for MS Dynamics 365 BC and SAP S/4HANA — so your project lands on time and Finance is ready before go-live, not after.
DetailsPower BI & Business Intelligence
Building the reporting infrastructure that means "how are we doing?" gets answered today — not at the end of next week.
DetailsAI-Driven Workflow Automation
Designing AI workflows that take routine Finance tasks off the team's plate — so the effort goes into using the numbers, not just producing them.
DetailsProcess Standardization & Shared Services
Standardizing Finance processes across entities and reducing closing cycles — because the same reconciliation issue shouldn't have to be fixed manually every month.
DetailsWhy Marcus
Not another generalist.
Not just a tech consultant.
Full-stack Finance + Tech
No need for an IT translator. Marcus speaks Finance and Technology natively — and knows exactly where they connect.
Systems thinker
Finance decisions ripple across sales, logistics, and operations. He sees all of it — and designs for the whole system, not just the ledger.
Rapid onboarding
Getting operational in unfamiliar environments isn't a soft skill — it's a trained competency built across wholesale, retail, medical, and military contexts.
Implements — doesn't just advise
Reports and slide decks are outputs, not results. The work ends when the system runs, the process is live, and the team knows how to use it.

Insights
Finance & AI — without the hype.
What AI actually does in Controlling today — and what it doesn't
Variance commentary, reconciliation, report distribution. The tasks AI handles well in Finance are specific and operational. The tasks it doesn't are exactly the ones being oversold.
Read articleERP implementation failures: what goes wrong when Finance and IT don't speak the same language
Most ERP projects don't fail because of the software. They fail because Finance requirements are never translated into a scope that IT can build — and nobody notices until go-live.
Read articleThe continuous close — vision or reality?
Everyone wants a two-day close. Some have achieved it. But the path isn't a software upgrade — it's a process and data architecture problem that has to be solved first.
