Challenge: Accelerating management reporting and analysis in a rapidly changing business environment
Toyota Finance needed to improve the speed, scalability, and sustainability of its financial reporting and profit and loss management processes. As business data continued to grow, existing systems made it difficult to quickly aggregate information, generate insights, and support management decisions. In addition, key reporting logic relied heavily on manual expertise, creating operational continuity risks.
Solution: Building a centralized Corporate Performance Management platform for budgeting, planning, management reporting, and profit & loss analysis
The first criterion for selecting a solution was the ability to store large volumes of data. Additionally, we wanted a system that is easy to maintain, allows us to understand what data is where, what calculations are being performed, and is easy to use.
To address reporting delays, manual data aggregation, and limited analytical visibility, Toyota Finance implemented CCH Tagetik Unified Platform as its centralized Corporate Performance Management solution.
The solution was selected for its ability to manage large data volumes, provide transparency into calculations and business logic, support flexible allocation models, and deliver an intuitive user experience. Today, the platform is used for budget management, performance management, and lifecycle profit & loss management.

What was the scope of selecting CCH Tagetik for Toyota Finance?
The scope of CCH Tagetik implementation encompasses three main functions. The first one is the budget management function. The second is a performance management. This becomes a core function in our project, combining budget management and performance management to analyze budget vs. actual variances to find out where the issues lie. The third function is the lifetime profit function of the automobile installment sales. This function analyzes the profits our company can expect over a customer's lifetime. -
What are the effects of introducing CCH Tagetik into Toyota Finance financial system?
The effects of introducing CCH Tagetik, even though it's been about six months, one significant improvement is in terms of time. The speed of generating numerical outputs has certainly increased. It's now about 10 business days faster compared to the initial stage. So, the time our team spent manually producing these numbers in the past 10 business days is no longer required.
