A ACL Case Study
Procter & Gamble (P&G) is a 174‑year‑old global consumer goods company with about 135,000 employees, more than 300 brands in 140+ countries and US$88 billion in annual sales. In Brazil, rapid growth, ERP and peripheral system changes, a shifting tax regime and the rollout of computerized e‑government fiscal reporting created significant integration and compliance risks—large transaction volumes, SAP table extraction limits and more than 60 tax/ accounting obligations made manual controls impractical.
P&G implemented ACL Analytics Exchange to power its Quality Book Assurance program, automating server‑based extracts and cross‑checking tax and accounting databases without impacting system performance. Within a year the solution analyzed roughly US$17 billion in transactions, delivered 100% transactional coverage, validated transfer pricing and tax balances, reduced risk exposure, sped audit responses and earned P&G the 2011 ACL Impact Award for continuous monitoring.
