Learn how US-Analytics and Oracle Business Intelligence improved spend visibility at Aleris International, a global leader in the production and sale of aluminum and extruded products.
Through internal growth, and mergers and acquisitions, Aleris inadvertently created a reporting and analysis problem… they had a mixture of source systems and no data warehouse, which left the company exposed when the global auto and aircraft industries contracted following the 2008 financial crisis. Aleris had poor visibility into their $350M annual, non-metals procurement, where 92% of the spend was unclassified.
Enter US-Analytics and Oracle’s Procurement and Spend Application, a pre-built business intelligence application…
Situation
- Leading manufacturer of aluminum products, Aleris needed to rapidly gain insight into spend procedures
Solution
- OBIEE Spend and Procurement application to quickly identify process breakdowns and unclassified spend
Results
- OBIEE provides rapid, out-of-the box reports, data models, metrics, calculations and ETL’s used for Operational Reporting
- Ability to compare vendor performance on timelines, quality, pricing – giving the company better visibility
- Better visibility = Opportunities to reduce cost… 1% savings equated to $4 million!
