Case Study: Schindler Elevator boosts workforce planning, budgeting, and forecasting with Accelytics and Anaplan

Schindler Elevator cuts budgeting from months to hours with Accelytics

Schindler Elevator Corporation, the North American operation of a leading global elevator manufacturer, faced a significant challenge with its outdated financial planning process. Utilizing over 450 disconnected Excel files, their legacy forecasting tools took weeks to produce reports, leading to outdated data and an inability to respond to short-term market fluctuations. Accelytics was engaged to implement a solution using the Anaplan platform.

Accelytics implemented Anaplan in two phases, consolidating all planning into a single platform. This solution included Revenue & Margin Planning, Payroll Analytics, and Workforce Planning, integrated with SAP. As a result, Schindler reduced its budgeting and forecasting time from months to just hours, eliminated Excel errors, and gained real-time, granular insights into revenue and margin trends, dramatically improving collaboration and data accuracy across the organization.
