Media Company Brings Clarity and Confidence to Enterprise Reporting
To make the most of consolidated enterprise reporting environment, a leading media company rationalized, prioritized, and reconciled new report creation
Driver
A leading media company was seeking to simplify and modernize its enterprise financial and operational reporting environment following its migration to Oracle Fusion. Over time, teams across the organization developed disparate reports, duplicative metrics, and inconsistent data definitions, making it difficult for leaders to access a single source of truth.
Outcome
At the conclusion of the engagement, the organization had:
A rationalized reporting catalog with clear ownership and alignment to functional priorities
A mapped inventory of reports tied to capabilities, highlighting where “quick wins” could be delivered
A prioritized roadmap that quantified business value and guided future reporting investments
A validated data foundation that ensured accurate and auditable reporting for Finance and leadership teams
Approach
The FlexPoint team partnered with stakeholders from each function in the organization to define reporting needs and align priorities. Our process consisted of:
Facilitating workshops with stakeholder groups to identify critical reports, metrics, and KPIs
Assessing the reporting catalog by distinguishing between out-of-the-box, configurable, and custom-build options, then mapping reporting needs to understand which high-value reports could be enabled quickly and which required tailored development
Facilitating trade-off discussions with business leaders to create a prioritized roadmap that balanced business value, implementation effort, and cost savings potential
Performing detailed reconciliation to validate key financial statements against publicly reported figures
Services Highlighted
“We engaged FlexPoint because I knew from prior experience that FlexPoint could be trusted to engage with dozens of business stakeholders independently and professionally.
Our project required engaging 22 departments that captured a total of 288 analytics use cases. FlexPoint put together the tactical work plan on how to order and execute the implementation work of those use cases using Oracle’s Fusion Data Intelligence product. In addition to requirements gathering, value analysis, and project management, they also performed data reconciliation testing and supported us in ensuring we were fully ready to take on the operational support of the new system.
I highly recommend engaging FlexPoint for any consulting needs you have!”
