Case Study: Baltimore Aircoil Company achieves faster, more accurate budgeting and reporting with Prophix Software

Changing the Finance Current for Baltimore Aircoil Company

Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC), a global manufacturer of evaporative cooling and heat transfer equipment, needed a Corporate Performance Management solution to cut the time spent on budgeting and reporting and to reduce reliance on error-prone Excel files. A key requirement was preserving their existing budget template format to minimize the learning curve for end users while speeding roll-ups, consolidation, and analysis.

BAC implemented Prophix for its user-friendly interface and broad functionality, centralizing data collection, automating budget consolidation, and improving version control and data integrity. The finance team now maintains templates faster, runs deeper analysis, and manages headcount planning in a single model, giving managers quick access to cost-center reports—saving an estimated 30–50 hours in budget administration and about four hours per month on report review, with plans to extend Prophix to revenue, forecasting, and capex planning.
