Case Study: CoBank streamlines Cognos upgrades and audits with Motio

CoBank validates 700 reports automatically with Motio

CoBank, a Farm Credit System bank providing financing for agribusiness and rural infrastructure, faced a significant challenge when upgrading its Cognos environments. The process of manually validating hundreds of reports across five environments to find broken ones was considered a nightmare, and the frequently audited institution needed a defensible way to track changes. They turned to their existing investment in Motio for a solution.

Using Motio's guidance and product, CoBank implemented a sandbox testing process that automatically identified reports with issues, saving significant time and effort. The solution provided a single version of truth for audits and a full change history of every Cognos object. Motio enabled a repeatable upgrade process, automatically validating 700 reports for the upgrade and making future audits far easier for the team.
