Case Study: Eaton Towers achieves full visibility of consolidated financials and 100% faster reporting with Workday Adaptive Planning

Eaton Towers Gains Full Visibility of Consolidated Financials to Drive Business Expansion

Eaton Towers is a leading independent telecom tower company in Africa with more than 5,000 towers across seven countries. Rapid expansion and geographically dispersed operations left the finance team struggling with slow, error-prone group reporting, complex currency conversions and intercompany eliminations, and a lack of consolidated visibility required for investor due diligence and fast acquisition onboarding.

By implementing Adaptive Consolidation and Adaptive OfficeConnect, Eaton automated roll-ups and reporting across regional sites, consolidated multiple data sources, and accelerated the monthly reporting cycle by 100%. The finance team gained time for analysis and strategic decision-making, supported an oversubscribed $350M funding round, and sped acquisition integration—enabling expansion from three to seven markets in one year.
