The customer, a large energy company, faced a challenge with an intensive manual process for importing general ledger data required for its audit. The vendor, Grant Thornton LLP, was engaged to reduce this data import time and improve overall audit quality through its financial statement audit service.

Grant Thornton implemented an automated data ingestion solution by creating customized scripts to seamlessly transfer data into its analytics platform. This automation streamlined the manual process, saving 83% of the time previously required; data import was reduced from 24 hours per quarter to just four. The vendor's solution also improved audit quality by providing consistent, reliable results and eliminating the potential for human error inherent in the previous manual method.
