Case Study: CMC Materials reduces global forecast preparation to one day with Acterys

CMC Materials cuts global forecast preparation to one day with Acterys

CMC Materials faced significant challenges with an outdated, spreadsheet-based planning process that resulted in prolonged preparation times and limited analytics capabilities, hindering effective decision-making. To address this, they chose to implement Acterys for its fast implementation, unique integration with Microsoft Power BI and Excel, and low total cost of ownership.

Acterys implemented a solution that integrated seamlessly with CMC's 11 different ERP systems and was deployed across 12 global subsidiaries within three weeks. This deployment slashed the time to build a model from a day to just half a day and eliminated formula errors. The results included a 70% reduction in manual effort, a 37% improvement in data accuracy, and saving 10 working days per month, which collectively reduced the cycle for preparing global forecasts to just one day.
