Case Study: JBS USA achieves scalable, compliant lease accounting with Nakisa

JBS USA’s lease accounting journey from on-prem to cloud

JBS USA, the largest subsidiary of JBS, needed a scalable way to manage a highly complex lease portfolio of 12,000+ assets across multiple regions, company codes, currencies, and reporting standards. After evaluating vendors, JBS USA selected Nakisa’s lease accounting software (Nakisa Lease Administration) to replace manual Excel-based lease tracking and support compliance with both ASC 842 and IFRS 16.

Nakisa implemented a cloud-native lease accounting solution and migrated JBS USA from on-premises to the cloud, adding seamless bidirectional SAP integration, automation, and out-of-the-box reporting. The result was a more stable and high-performing environment with virtually no interruptions, zero reconciliation issues during migration, faster reporting and upgrades, improved security, and stronger visibility across global lease operations.
