Case Study: GWA Group Limited achieves granular budgeting and rapid sales & inventory analytics with Jedox

Manufacturing Sales Planning and Inventory Analytics

GWA Group Limited, a long-established Australian and New Zealand manufacturer and distributor of building fixtures and fittings (brands such as Caroma, Fowler and Dorf), faced slow, IT-dependent reporting and planning. Their Lawson Movex ERP made analysis cumbersome, budgets were managed in complex linked spreadsheets with inconsistent results, and forecasts lacked the detailed cost visibility needed for a manufacturing business.

After evaluating BI options, GWA ran a one-week Jedox Bootcamp and implemented Jedox for enterprise budgeting & forecasting, daily sales reporting, product-claims KPIs, management reporting and inventory analytics. The platform delivered self-service reporting, far more granular budgeting, a single source of truth, rapid project rollouts (including immediate consolidation of merged businesses without ERP merges) and minimal ongoing support—under one full-time equivalent—used daily across Sales, Marketing, Finance and Supply/Demand planning.
