Case Study: AJ Products saves 32% in man-hours with Mercur Business Control

Mercur Business Control delivers Performance Management for AJ Products across 20 000 products in 19 different markets

Aj Products, a leading mail order company for office furniture, materials handling and storage solutions, needed a more robust way to manage performance and business intelligence across 19 markets. Its previous budgeting process relied on hundreds of Excel files being sent back and forth, making it complex, time-consuming, and prone to errors.

Mercur implemented Mercur Business Control to give AJ Products better visibility into production, sales, profitability, and forecasting through reports, dashboards, and KPIs. The new solution reduced the time-consuming iterative planning process and saved 32% in man-hours by moving from a long process to creating two forecasts and one budget, while also helping AJ Products accelerate forecasting and run simulations during COVID-19.
