Uitgelicht: HVK – Ambulancedienst Het Vlaamse Kruis
CEO: Pascal Plovie
Het probleem
HVK has been a non-profit organisation with an extensive social function since 1927. The head office is located in Mechelen (Belgium). The association also has approximately 20 local branches in the Flemish Region and the German-speaking Community. In addition to around thirty employees, more than 1,200 volunteers are also active in the organisation. They staff the emergency patient transport stations day and night. The core activities:
• Patient transport
• First aid training (private individuals and companies)
• Event assistance (first aid stations)
• Volunteer work
CEO Pascal Plovie was appointed by the board of directors in 2017 to professionalise and strategically develop the organisation.
De oplossing
Pascal Plovie wanted to structure his plans to achieve the objectives he had set together with the board of directors. After an initial meeting between Coen vander Kley and Pascal, Wim Braeckman was nominated as part-time CFO. An important requirement: knowledge of the financial and legal aspects of running a large non-profit organisation. Shortly after the meetings with the members of the board of directors and the general manager, the collaboration started. Wim started working as CFO one day a week. During the first months, the focus was on intensive debtor management, digitalisation of financial processes and the preparation and implementation of management reporting based on EMAsphere.
Getallen zijn belangrijk Maar niet die op de winstrekening en balans. We vroegen aan Pascal welk getal echt belangrijk voor hem is.
The non-profit organization aims for 0 or break-even. In addition to professionalizing the nearly century-old association, this is the ultimate goal. It must go hand in hand with maintaining the necessary resources to continue investing in personnel, ambulances, guard posts, IT systems, etc.
Een 'dankjewel' aan mijn CFO
"Wim kon al snel de vinger op de wond leggen van het cashmanagementmanagement, de gebrekkige systemen en de rapportages. Op basis van planningen van 90 dagen, konden we snel vooruitgang boeken.Wim werd ook een volwaardig lid van de directie. De 24/7-beschikbaarheid van 'onze' CFO geeft heel wat gemoedsrust."
