Case Study: CMC achieves 10x faster Manufacturing Cloud forecasting with Valorx Wave

CMC cuts forecast cycle time by 75% with Valorx

CMC, a major steel manufacturer, faced a significant challenge with their Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud implementation. Their sales teams found the native interface too slow and cumbersome for updating hundreds of forecast line items across multiple regions and timeframes. This forced them to export data to spreadsheets, which led to version conflicts, stale data, and a loss of visibility for leadership. To solve this, they turned to Valorx and its Wave product.

Valorx Wave transformed the Manufacturing Cloud forecast objects into a fast, spreadsheet-style grid directly inside Salesforce. This solution provided the bulk editing, multi-dimensional views, and formula capabilities their teams needed without requiring any exports. The results were dramatic: CMC achieved a 75% reduction in their monthly forecast cycle time and made forecast updates 10x faster, all while ensuring data remained governed and real-time within Salesforce.
