Operational Impact
Carlyle was able to simplify their IT landscape and reduce costs compared to their previous Hyperion system. OneStream was easier to install, taking 90 minutes via WebEx, and VMs used for OneStream were less than half that of Hyperion. System monitoring is much easier and Carlyle has received immediate responses to support tickets with rapid issue resolution. | |
The implementation of OneStream has resulted in significant process improvements for Carlyle. Consolidating a full year of GAAP actuals was reduced from six to eight hours to three to four hours while including significantly more detail than was previously loaded in Hyperion (e.g., project-level details). | |
Submitting revenue and expense budget updates and reviewing the impact was reduced from one week to five to ten minutes. Updating allocation metrics and reviewing the impact was reduced from one week to 30 to 60 minutes and is now run four times daily. And updating headcount assumptions and reviewing the impact was reduced from one week to 20 minutes. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Consolidation times reduced by more than 50%. | |
Revenue and expense budget updates reduced from one week to five to ten minutes. | |
Updating allocation metrics reduced from one week to 30 to 60 minutes. | |
