Case Study: FibroGen achieves agile, activity-based planning and accurate forecasting with OneStream Software

Fibrogen - Customer Case Study

FibroGen, a science‑based biopharmaceutical company, transitioned from a drug‑development organization to a global commercial business, which created greater complexity and new demands for quarterly forecasting, cash and EPS guidance, and program‑driven planning across U.S. and China operations. Their Excel models and a 20‑year legacy budgeting system could not support activity‑level planning or provide an intuitive experience for many non‑finance users (including scientists), so they needed a modern, extensible corporate performance management solution.

FibroGen selected OneStream (with Archetype as implementation partner) to deliver a unified CPM platform using Extensible Dimensionality, People Planning and role‑specific dashboards to enable activity‑level allocations and strategic personnel modeling. Within months they achieved faster, more accurate budgeting and reporting across 70+ users, streamlined budget revisions and board approval processes, improved alignment of drug development to finance and cash planning, and established a scalable foundation for consolidation, close automation, SEC reporting and tax provisioning.
