Customer Case:
Dorel Juvenile

Dorel Juvenile Streamlines Planning & Forecasting

Dorel Juvenile, a global leader in juvenile products, faced increasing challenges in their financial and operational planning. With multiple brands, regions, and product lines, their existing planning processes were fragmented across spreadsheets and legacy systems. This led to inefficiencies, data discrepancies, and a lack of real-time visibility—hindering their ability to make fast, data-driven decisions.

Their finance and operations teams needed a modern, standardized and automated solution that could integrate seamlessly across departments while providing accurate forecasting and agile scenario planning.
