Case Study: NTT Europe achieves real-time, multi-dimensional financial insight and saves 100 hours/month with PrecisionPoint Focus

NTT Communications Transforms Cross Company Financial Insight

NTT Europe, the EMEA arm of NTT Communications, faced slow, error-prone financial reporting after merging business units and moving to multiple Navision databases. Consolidating country-specific databases to report by business unit, customer, product and budget created a huge manual overhead and a four- to five-day month-end close, so the company selected PrecisionPoint’s Focus business intelligence solution to address these challenges.

PrecisionPoint implemented PrecisionPoint Focus to create a single reconciled reporting database with multi-dimensional and multi-currency analysis, enabling real-time variance and budget comparisons and drill-down by customer and product. The solution saved upwards of 100 hours per month (vs. a 30-hour estimate), removed disputes over the numbers, sped decision-making, and provided a scalable platform for future growth.
