Laura Ashley | Retail | 910 | $373M | United Kingdom | IBM | IBM Cognos Analytics | Analytics and BI | 2018 | Aramar Solutions | In 2018, Laura Ashley engaged IBM together with Aramar Solutions to implement IBM Cognos Analytics as part of a broader financial performance management initiative. The IBM Cognos Analytics deployment is classified in the Analytics and BI category and was centered on the retailer's corporate finance function. The implementation architecture was built around IBM Planning Analytics for data intake and IBM Cognos Controller for statutory consolidation, with IBM Cognos Analytics delivering reporting and analysis. Finance users load spreadsheet data into the Planning Analytics database, the Planning Analytics database automatically feeds consolidation inputs into IBM Cognos Controller, and consolidated results are surfaced back through IBM Cognos Analytics for downstream reporting. Integrations include an operational writeback of consolidated results into the company JD Edwards ERP system, creating a closed loop between planning, consolidation, and the general ledger. Laura Ashley elected to import source data at the cost center level rather than only at the subsidiary level, increasing consolidation complexity while extending granularity and traceability across cost centers throughout the business. Operational coverage emphasized the corporate finance organization and cost center level consolidations, prompting redesign of data collection and validation workflows and automation of the feed to Controller. Governance changes established mandatory loading of source files into Planning Analytics and automated consolidation runs in IBM Cognos Controller, and the deployment delivered faster consolidation of cost center level financials while acknowledging the solution is more demanding to operate due to increased data granularity. | |
