Communication between your applications improves<\/strong><br \/>\nApplication silos are the daily constraint for Finance departments: delays, costs, errors. Communication via MCP is not trivial: it changes daily operations. <\/p>\n<p>A concrete example with a cross-functional agent for your department. In a single chat: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">You ask for the largest variances compared to the Forecast<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">The agent identifies that the answer is in the EPM, and points to the failing Cost Center<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">You ask for the details of the largest corresponding invoices<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">The agent identifies that this detail is in the data platform and retrieves the correct information<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">You look for who validated these invoices<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">The agent looks in the ERP<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">You exchange with the right people to understand and act<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A centralized and governed Data Warehouse could have given this result. But this is rarely the case across the entire Finance scope. MCP can only partially compensate.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Data quality and governance remain key<\/strong><br \/>\nAI does not erase data problems; it amplifies them. If a customer repository or sales revenue calculation differs from one application to another, the AI&#8217;s response will be inconsistent. <\/p>\n<p>Data quality, master data unification, synchronization of business rules, governance: these fundamentals remain as critical in the AI world as in the old one. Preparing this foundation always makes sense for you, and for the AI that will navigate your repositories. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Inter-application remains a No Man&#8217;s Land<\/strong><br \/>\nAI enriches each component. But many Finance processes still exist outside these components, whether in Excel files, legacy applications, or manual processes. And making these components communicate remains complex. We would like, following a variance detection in the EPM compared to a Forecast, for an agent to study the detail in the data platform or the ERP to report contextual information or even the cause of the anomaly. We would also like, when it is simple and under control, for this to automatically trigger corrective actions. And we would like all of this to have finally been completed even before displaying our dashboards. But here we fall into an inter-application space. This is why it is both a No Man&#8217;s Land but also a gold mine for truly revolutionizing our processes of tomorrow.       <\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    \n            <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section    \n        class=\"block-content block-content-text-meltone\"\n                >\n                <div class=\"block-content-text-meltone_deco\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n            <span class=\"deco deco--circle\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 361 361\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\">\n    <circle cx=\"180.5\" cy=\"180.5\" r=\"180.5\" fill=\"#404672\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n<\/span>\n            <span class=\"deco deco--arabesque\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 699 1104.12\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\">\n    <path d=\"M490.629 52.3639C180.108 186.874 -55.8918 558.409 103.573 660.574C243.033 749.921 491.159 636.844 579.833 551.803C691.514 444.698 654.91 330.416 530.048 359.901C387.578 393.544 248.471 577.054 237.206 839.268C226.498 1088.51 463.222 968.525 637.798 774.562C641.376 770.588 648.324 775.163 645.893 779.926C608.135 853.903 537.488 996.6 530.048 1051.76\" stroke=\"#CED9FA\" stroke-width=\"104.701\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"grid\">\n            <div class=\"grid_content\">\n                                                    \n                                \n                                        \n                        \n                    \n            <h2\n        class=\"title title-section\"\n                        >Different options are emerging to address this No Man&#8217;s Land<\/h2>\n    \n                                                            \n                                    \n                \n        <div class=\"editor\"\n        >\n        <h4><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Market agentic platforms<\/strong>: promise of simplicity and fast time-to-value, but this adds a new application<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Corporate conversational agents<\/strong> (Claude, ChatGPT, Mistral, Copilot, Gemini): some entrust them with this gateway role<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>The data platform<\/strong>: natural candidate.
