Deep dive

A global company with ten business entities relied on manual consolidation of financial data from Excel, CRM, ERP, and warehouse systems, resulting in fragmented, slow, and inconsistent reporting. We built a centralized data architecture, automated ETL processes, and delivered real-time dashboards tailored for CFOs and executives. AI models for cash flow forecasting and anomaly detection added predictive insights. Reporting time dropped from days to minutes, giving leadership one source of truth and faster, more reliable decision-making.

The Challenge

Fragmented financial reporting across 10 entities and countries
Manual data consolidation from multiple disconnected systems (Excel, ERP, CRM, warehouse tools)
Lack of unified data infrastructure, leading to inconsistent and delayed reports
Limited visibility for CFOs and management, slowing decision-making
No predictive capabilities for cash flow or anomaly detection
