Case Study: PCCW Ltd. achieves 12x faster financial consolidations, real‑time reporting, and improved forecasting with Oracle Hyperion and Exalytics

PCCW Completes Financial Consolidation Cycles 12x Faster, Gains Real-Time Reporting, and Improves Forecasting Efficiency and Reliability

PCCW Ltd., a Hong Kong–based diversified group with major interests in telecommunications, media, IT services and property, needed a flexible, scalable enterprise performance management platform to speed up financial consolidation and improve budgeting and forecasting. The company faced slow, manual consolidation cycles across multiple business units and disparate systems, and required automated data aggregation, real‑time reporting, and upgraded hardware to support timely, accurate decision‑making.

PCCW implemented Oracle Hyperion Planning with Oracle Essbase and Oracle Exalytics, supported by Oracle Advanced Customer Support and PCCW Solutions, in a two‑phase rollout. The new solution cut consolidation time from 12 hours to one hour and made month‑end closings three times faster, improved forecasting reliability and what‑if analysis, provided a single analytic view across businesses, reduced manual data‑gathering by four hours, and lowered monthly administration effort by about 70%, supporting 200+ users with familiar Office integration.
