Case Study: Scania Australia achieves faster budgeting and sharper performance reporting with Infor BI from Professional Advantage

Scania Australia cuts budget upload time from 19 days to 90 minutes with Professional Advantage

Scania Australia, a supplier to the heavy transport industry, faced challenges with a complex and time-consuming performance management process. Relying on spreadsheets for budgeting across its eleven branches was error-prone and left little room for analysis, hindering the company's ability to control profitability during a period of growth. To address this, Scania engaged vendor Professional Advantage to implement a business intelligence (BI) solution from Infor.

Professional Advantage deployed the Infor BI software, which provided Scania's management with greater insight and the ability to easily analyze data from different parts of the business. The results were dramatic: the time to prepare and upload budgets into management reports was reduced from 19 days to just 90 minutes. This new efficiency allowed Scania's finance team to spend more time on analysis and forecasting, fostering greater performance accountability and improving financial oversight without relying on IT.
