Case Study: Porex Corporation boosts self-service reporting and forecasting with Workday Adaptive Planning

Self-Service Reporting Encourages Plastics Manufacturer to Delve Deeper into Data

Porex Corporation, a global manufacturer of porous plastics, faced a cumbersome and inflexible forecasting process. Its previous solution, IBM Cognos Planning, required significant IT support and prevented users from creating their own reports. Seeking a more efficient and self-service approach, Porex evaluated several corporate performance management solutions to improve its complex, multi-currency, and multi-dimensional planning.

The company selected and implemented Workday Adaptive Planning for its ease of use, cost-effectiveness, and software-as-a-service delivery model. The solution empowered employees with self-service reporting, allowing them to create custom reports without IT assistance. The robust and reliable platform handled Porex's complex forecasting needs across its global operations, resulting in a successful deployment that required no IT resources for management and provided exceptional user satisfaction.
