Problem

A $480M consumer packaged goods company was spending fourteen business days on close, delaying investor reporting and burning finance capacity.

Approach

We re-sequenced the close, deployed Fynix ERP reconciliations, automated 42 journal entries, and stood up a controllership KPI board.

Result

Close reduced to four days, audit findings down 60%, finance team redeployed to FP&A.
