KWH Group needed a consolidation platform for ambitious environments

KWH Group has a broad and diverse group of key users. they needed the ability to visualize data in an easily digestible format from a single database presenting “one version of the truth” to facilitate a coherent, IC matching and reporting process. other requirements important for kwh group included improved audit trail and global launching ability. Audit trail was improved using automated processes and single entry principle and could services enable the global launching ability.

“We were looking for a partner willing to co-operate, to train users, and with the right attitude and desire to build ambitious environments. CCH Tagetik offers a good, modern, flexible solution for consolidation process,” Eija Savela, Group Controller, KWH Group

We worked closely with kwh group during the project implementation and supported the whole process so that “one version of the truth” was established. One of the key benefits for kwh group is the global utilization. Automated processes and a significant upgrade to the technology of the outdated legacy systems has brought kwh group a better understanding of their consolidation process. They now have an improved audit trail and a transparent ic matching. CCH Tagetik’s ability to visualize the reporting process was brought up by KWH Group as one of the most substantial benefits of the new platform.
