Case Study: Home Products International achieves 75% improvement in budgeting cycle efficiency with insightsoftware's Spreadsheet Server

Consumer Products Company Sees 75% Improvement in Budgeting Cycle Efficiency

Home Products International (HPI) faced slow, error-prone financial reporting: accountants exported reports from JD Edwards® using World Writers and rekeyed data into Microsoft Excel, creating risk and downstream process delays. To address this, HPI implemented insightsoftware’s Spreadsheet Server to replace manual Excel processes and standardize reporting.

Using insightsoftware’s Spreadsheet Server, HPI eliminated rekeying, downloads, and exports, enabling faster, secure, Excel-based reporting that empowered users to build tailored reports and increased departmental financial visibility. The change delivered on-time reporting and improved inventory availability for sales, and drove a measurable 75% improvement in budgeting cycle efficiency.
