Case Study: Global Retail Coffee Company streamlines financial planning with Spaulding Ridge

Global Retail Coffee Company - Customer Case Study

Global Retail Coffee Company, a global leader in the specialty coffee sector, partnered with Spaulding Ridge to improve its financial processes. The office of the CFO was relying on a cumbersome, manual Excel-based planning process that created extra work, stress, and inefficiency for the finance team.

Spaulding Ridge implemented a cost center and obligation planning solution to streamline financial planning, capture both financial and non-financial obligations, and improve decision-making. The result was significantly faster forecasting turnaround, automated planning structure and data-source updates, a planning horizon extended from 12 to 24 months with no additional effort, and real-time leadership reporting integrated with the ERP system across two business groups and more than 20 users.
