Sage, the leader in accounting, financial, HR and payroll technology for small and mid-sized businesses, and PwC today announced a new, agentic AI-powered delivery model for Sage Intacct implementation, designed to help finance teams get live faster and with greater confidence. By embedding AI directly into the implementation process, Sage and PwC are reducing manual effort across design, configuration and testing. The approach helps shorten deployment timelines, improve consistency and make it easier for customers to move from project kick-off to day-one value.Announced ahead of Sage Future, taking place in San Francisco from April 28-30, the initiative reflects Sage’s broader focus on delivering practical, trusted AI that helps businesses simplify complexity and move faster with confidence. This approach combines Sage’s financial management platform with PwC’s delivery expertise and a more automated, repeatable model to reduce manual effort across design, configuration and testing, improving consistency from day one.“This is about reimagining how software is delivered in the real world,” said Johan Jegerajan, PwC UK. “By reducing manual effort and standardizing key parts of the process, we can deliver Sage Intacct more efficiently, while keeping our teams focused on helping customers get the most from their investment.”Implementation remains a barrier to progressAs businesses look to modernize finance and access real-time insight, implementation continues to be one of the most complex parts of adopting new systems. Traditional approaches often rely on time-intensive, manual processes, slowing down adoption and placing pressure on internal teams and partners alike.Sage and PwC are addressing this by introducing a more automated and repeatable approach to delivery. By embedding AI and intelligent workflows into the implementation process, the collaboration reduces manual effort across key stages, helping to streamline deployment and improve readiness from day one.Early deployments are showing strong potential to streamline implementation and improve overall quality, helping customers adopt Sage Intacct more effectively.“Businesses don’t just need new technology, they need a straightforward way to get started and see the benefits,” said Gretchen O’Hara, EVP Strategic Partnerships and Business Development, Sage. “By working closely with PwC, we are reimagining how Sage Intacct is delivered in practice, using AI to reduce friction and help customers get up and running more quickly and with confidence.”PwC is applying this approach across Sage Intacct implementations globally — bringing agentic AI out of the abstract and into the practical reality of how businesses deploy and begin using their systems.
