Assistance with the implementation of a new analytical structure
Background and objectives mission
Our customer has launched a business transformation program. Within this framework, a specific project was initiated to design a new analytical structure in line with the new Target Operating Model (TOM). The main objective was to modernize financial analytical tools in order to improve the accuracy and relevance of cost and performance analyses. This transformation aimed to strengthen cost management, budgeting and steering of Group entities, by adapting analytical structures to new strategic and operational requirements.
approach adopted
The assignment involved direct assistance in mapping the new analytical structure in the information systems, covering both SAP and non-SAP entities. Coordination work was carried out with the Human Resources department for the creation and management of the new cost-centers essential to the new analytical organization. In addition, the assignment involved participation in a "flying team" dedicated to supporting change in the subsidiaries, in order to guarantee the gradual appropriation and smooth operational integration of the new analytical rules. This cooperative, hands-on approach fostered alignment between the Finance teams and the divisions concerned.
