Lindex
I am very satisfied with CCH Tagetik and its flexibility. When management needs specific information, it is so easy to build ad- hoc reports to see business cases from different dimensions. This is a valuable tool allowing us to see and follow up on investments.
The Challenge
With 460 retail stores in 18 European markets and online sales in 33 markets around the world, accessing information needed to produce accurate forecasts, reports, and budgets was a painstaking, labour-intense task using an under-dimensioned legacy system. Also, coordinating these tasks was made more difficult due to non-standard routines used regionally.
Lindex Office of Finance wanted a higher degree of flexibility to be able to produce up-to-date reports, forecasts, budgets, and the ability to better follow up on ROI on a project level.
CCH Tagetik Solution
CCH Tagetik Budgeting & Planning was implemented to initially address the budgeting and reporting needs of the customer.
However, the customer soon discovered the broad scope CCH Tagetik could address including Lease Accounting for IFRS 16. The CCH Tagetik experts’ deep understanding of Lindex’s complex business model and the ability to tailor the solution to their specific needs was greatly appreciated.
