Case Study: Scott Bader achieves instant, error-free management reporting with Talentia's CPM solution

Global chemical company utilises automation to transform management reporting process

Scott Bader is a global chemical manufacturer with over 600 employees and sites across the UK, Europe, North America, the Middle East and South Africa. The finance team had been compiling monthly management packs from around 15 spreadsheets—a slow, error-prone consolidation process that undermined data integrity and consumed significant time across different time zones.

To address this, Scott Bader implemented Talentia’s CPM software from a central UK location, automating consolidation and offering web-based access for global submissions. The result: month-end management packs (accounts, cash flow, KPIs and product analyses) now generate in under 30 seconds versus nearly three hours previously, adhoc scenario changes take seconds, and the company has greater confidence in accurate, real-time reporting.
