Cost of staying with good enough systems

The Cost of Staying with “Good Enough” Systems

Many institutions already use:
  • alert
    Desktop ERPs – staff must be on-site, systems crash with power outages, no remote access.
  • alert
    Basic accounting software – handles only fees and payroll, no IPSAS or CBET/RPL reporting.
  • alert
    Shallow cloud systems – mobile-ready but too thin to manage compliance and operations end-to-end.
The risk of staying with these half-measures
audit risk
Audit Risks: reconciliation errors worth KES 2–5M per year.
compliance
Compliance Penalties: missed IPSAS, TVETA, or MoE deadlines leading to withheld funds.
credibility
Credibility Loss: institutions seen as lagging on accountability and modernization.
Compliance and reporting challenges

We Understand Your Challenges

Principals, bursars and boards are under constant pressure:
  • alert
    IPSAS reports must be accurate and on time.
  • alert
    TVETs face strict CBET/RPL tracking requirements.
  • alert
    Teacher Colleges must align with Ministry compliance frameworks.
  • alert
    Staff are tired of juggling spreadsheets, receipts and outdated systems that don’t talk to each other.
With 20 years of ERP expertise and as partners with TVETA and CDACC, ABNO designed Intellimis Pro to replace fragmented systems with one compliance-ready platform.

The Risk of Doing Nothing vs The Power of Getting It Right

Here’s what life looks like without Intellimis-and how different it feels when your institution runs on the right ERP.
Before Intellimis
(Staying with Desktop or Shallow Cloud)
  • IPSAS reports delayed, risking KES 20M–50M in withheld funds
  • CBET & RPL compliance gaps put accreditation at risk
  • Staff tied to on-site desktops, no remote access
  • Errors in finance worth KES 2–5M annually
  • Boards and regulators lose confidence in reporting
  • Competitors whisper that “cloud isn’t safe” while pushing outdated systems
After Intellimis
(Adopting Pro)
  • IPSAS, CBET and MoE reports generated on time, audit-ready
  • Accreditation confidence from TVETA / CDACC / Ministry
  • Secure cloud access anywhere, with offline sync
  • Error-free finances, strong budget control
  • Boards and regulators trust your data instantly
  • Institution positioned as a model public college or TVET
Don’t risk penalties, funding cuts, or compliance failures.

Choose peace of mind.
