Case Study: Celanese achieves automated, error-free transfer pricing and frees up team time with insightsoftware Longview Transfer Pricing

Leveraging Enterprise Software to Address Transfer Pricing Challenges

Celanese, a global chemical and specialty materials company, was managing operational transfer pricing on Excel across tens of thousands of SKUs, which required extensive manual data pulling, cleansing and model updates. To modernize and automate this process, Celanese implemented Longview Transfer Pricing from insightsoftware.

insightsoftware delivered a two-phase Longview Transfer Pricing rollout (data cleansing completed Q3 2020; phase two completed Q1 2021), reusing SAP metadata, validating workflows with Alteryx, and standardizing a single enterprise application for geographically dispersed teams. The solution removed Excel-related risks and human-error exposure, embedded team knowledge into consistent processes, freed significant person‑hours for analysis, and enabled scenario planning and easier onboarding of new entities—delivering measurable improvements in risk mitigation, process consistency and operational efficiency.
