A heavy reliance on Excel and a need for centralization

Faced with an obsolete reporting tool, EDHEC could neither integrate extra-financial data nor easily involve operational staff in the budgetary process. The need was clear:

Centralize the budgetary process and reporting into a single tool

Improve data reliability

Streamline and energize reporting

Provide operational staff with a clear vision of their scope

Testimonial

“Our budget construction and simulations were carried out entirely in Excel. This could generate reliability issues in the information shared.”

The choice of Pigment: ergonomics, agility, and sovereignty

 

After a market study, EDHEC chose Pigment, a French solution with advanced ergonomics, modern technology, and a strong capacity to adapt to organizations.

  • “The ergonomics, the speed of adoption by users, the community, the R&D… And the fact that Pigment is a French tool: for us, it was a real selection criterion.”

A co-constructed approach with the MeltOne teams

 

The project was conducted with a co-construction logic: starting from existing Excel files and modeling real needs with the business teams.

  • The project was conducted with a co-construction logic: starting from existing Excel files and modeling real needs with the business teams. “The goal was to transcribe all needs into the tool: management control, payroll, P&L… with the EDHEC teams gaining skills so they could become autonomous.”

    — Chloé, Senior EPM Consultant at MeltOne

MeltOne’s intervention allowed for a progressive increase in skills, with strong attention paid to training and the appropriation of the tool by users.

180 employees now involved in the budgetary process

Today, 180 employees use Pigment to track their budget and run simulations. 60 of them enter their data directly into the platform.

The gains are concrete:

Reduced reporting production time
Sustainable and reusable budget reports
Increased involvement of operational teams
A single platform for all management control

A collaboration based on pedagogy and business expertise

 

“Thanks to MeltOne, EDHEC teams, regardless of their profile, are now able to build their own models and meet their own needs. It is a real success.”
