Case Study: CPFL Energia achieves rapid SAP data access, revenue recovery and more efficient audits with ACL's Data Analysis for Teams

Acl Solutions Support Continuous Auditing

CPFL Energia is a major Brazilian utility serving nearly 20 million customers and generating over 90% of its power from renewable sources. Its internal audit team faced growing regulatory and operational demands—SOX and ANEEL compliance, a complex IT landscape of legacy systems and SAP, and difficulty accessing and analyzing the data needed to detect control weaknesses and support expansion.

By implementing ACL’s Data Analysis for Teams (ACL Analytics Exchange), CPFL gained secure, direct access to SAP data and automated full-population analytics that run in minutes and can be scheduled daily, weekly or monthly. The solution uncovered significant revenue leakage, enabled recovery of substantial funds, improved audit efficiency and coverage, strengthened controls, and established the foundation for continuous auditing with plans for browser access and exception management.
