Unified Financial and Operational Planning at Komatsu

Komatsu Europe transformed its financial planning and consolidation processes by Board The Enterprise Planning Platform, replacing fragmented Excel-based workflows with a centralized, and integrated solution. Facing challenges such as inconsistent data formats, limited analytical capabilities, and time-consuming manual tasks, Komatsu empowered local entities to manage their own data in Board, enabling real-time collaboration across regions. As a result, forecasting cycles accelerated by 10–15%, while manual data preparation for consolidation was reduced by up to 80%, eliminating 2–3 days of effort per reporting cycle.  With Board, Komatsu achieved faster forecasting, improved data quality, and deeper business insights—fostering a culture of innovation, ownership, and continuous improvement across its finance organization—and beyond.
