If your finance team feels stretched thin despite working harder than ever, technical debt may be the silent culprit. In this episode of CPM Customer Success, Andy Smetana dives into the hidden cost of technical debt in finance systems—how legacy tools quietly drain time, resources, and momentum, and why they prevent finance teams from operating at their full potential.
Episode Summary
Andy breaks down what technical debt really looks like inside finance organizations and how it builds up through fragmented systems, excessive customization, and manual workarounds. The episode explores why legacy architectures slow down close, planning, and reporting—and how they increase risk while exhausting finance teams. Andy then explains how OneStream’s unified platform helps organizations detox technical debt by consolidating financial processes, eliminating point solutions, and simplifying system maintenance. Real-world examples highlight how finance teams regain time, clarity, and strategic focus once technical debt is removed.
