Case Study: Zuffa eliminates spreadsheet chaos and gains real-time planning with Hubble

Zuffa Comes Out On Top By Knocking Out Spreadsheets

Zuffa, LLC, the parent company of the UFC, was challenged by its overwhelming reliance on disconnected and complex spreadsheets for financial planning and fight analysis. This led to significant data discrepancies and inefficiencies, with executives often receiving conflicting answers to simple business questions. Director of FP&A Danny Bazan knew the company needed a better way to integrate with its JD Edwards ERP to drive performance and sought a solution from Hubble.

Hubble implemented its planning and analytics applications to integrate with Zuffa's ERP, creating a single source of real-time data. Within seven weeks, the team had moved its spreadsheet data into 29 new tables. The solution provided live metrics, dashboards, and KPIs for executives, enabling better fight profitability analysis and business decisions. Hubble transformed Zuffa into a high-performing organization by eliminating spreadsheet chaos and providing credible, real-time information to guide the business forward.
