CHIASSO, Switzerland & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Board International, the Intelligent Planning Platform provider, today announced that Cornerstone Building Brands has selected Board for Budgeting, Forecasting, Reporting, CapEx Planning, and Tax Provisioning.
Cornerstone Building Brands is the largest manufacturer of exterior building products in North America, servicing the commercial, residential, and repair & remodel markets. Cornerstone is working with Board to drive accuracy and efficiency across budgeting, planning, and forecasting activities with an integrated approach that connects strategy, operations, and finance by enhancing operational and financial reporting, and standardizing planning and forecasting processes.
“Our company was growing exponentially through acquisitions, and we were challenged with maintaining disparate systems with limited data standards and governance,” says Jeff Van Hemert, VP of Finance, Cornerstone Building Brands. “We believe that implementing Board in the company will allow us to manage Planning, Budgeting, Forecasting, Capex Planning, and Financial Close management processes in an integrated and collaborative way. The Board team proved to us that not only can the solution enable us to efficiently establish our Financial Consolidation timeline, but it can also integrate data from multiple sources, ensuring one version of truth for financial planning and reporting.”
Board will standardize Cornerstone’s annual planning process and monthly forecasting process across all acquired entities, making it easier for the company to continue growing. The standardization will lead to increased visibility in tracking, justifying, and gaining insight into all Capital and Strategic projects.
