Case Study: Johnson Outdoors achieves unified financial consolidation, rapid budgeting and detailed reporting with OneStream Software

Johnson Outdoors - Customer Case Study

Johnson Outdoors, a global outdoor recreation product manufacturer with brands like Old Town, Minn Kota and SCUBAPRO, had outgrown its legacy Hyperion Enterprise system. Corporate Finance needed a single, owned solution to streamline consolidation, SOX‑compliant reporting, budgeting, forecasting, cash‑flow analysis and audit support, while also delivering more detailed operational and sales reporting by product, customer and region — a process that was previously time‑consuming and spread across multiple systems.

Johnson Outdoors implemented OneStream for financial consolidation, reporting, budgeting, forecasting and data quality management. The unified platform delivered guided workflows and self‑service data loads, drill‑back to JDE transactional detail, and full audit trails, enabling business unit controllers to access results instantly. Budgeting was built and deployed in two months using familiar Excel forms and automated drivers, and the company now produces richer, faster reports for the CFO and Board with improved visibility, control and streamlined processes.
