Case Study: Honeywell achieves 10,000–20,000 man-hours saved and scales analytics across 14 business units with Tableau Software

Honeywell saves 10,000+ hours, scaling to thousands of users across 14 business units

Honeywell’s Global Finance Center, the analytics hub for the $40B company, faced a scaling and efficiency challenge: finance teams supporting 14 business units across 100+ countries were spending up to 70% of their time on manual data extraction and reconciliation from 150+ ERP systems, with standard reports taking months to produce. The organization needed a faster, scalable way to deliver timely insights to thousands of internal users.

By deploying Tableau and Alteryx, Honeywell scaled analytics to roughly 9,000 users and shifted analytics from months to hours. The automation and standardization generated an estimated 10,000–20,000 man-hours saved, enabled faster decisions on inventory liquidations, working capital and spend reduction, and gave leadership a holistic view of company spending to better allocate sales and resources.
