Aker Solutions standardizes the close across 20 countries with BlackLine

Aker Solutions, a global energy and raw materials provider, faced an inefficient and manual financial close process that relied heavily on spreadsheets across 20 countries. This lack of standardization consumed excessive resources and created quality issues. To address this, they turned to BlackLine's financial close automation solutions.

By implementing BlackLine, Aker Solutions standardized their close process and terminology, which improved reporting quality and internal controls. The BlackLine platform accelerated the close by reducing manual work and increased transparency with real-time visibility for process owners and auditors. This enhanced control and audit trails while driving efficiency gains across their global finance function.
