About the Project
Kellogg’s treasury wanted to significantly improve its global cash visibility and cash forecasting accuracy. To achieve this, they needed to eliminate time-consuming work in Excel and downloads from multiple systems when gathering source data. Another objective was to gain more transparency across their working capital drivers in order to smoothen and streamline order-to-cash and procure-to-pay processes. And lastly, Kellogg’s treasury sought to use FX transaction data at the invoice level to develop a daily currency hedging position, with the long-term goal of creating an 18-month rolling hedge program.
To accomplish this, Kellogg’s knew they needed to identify a flexible fintech solution capable of automating core data collection fomr multiple systems, as well as a platform that specialized in providing cash forecasting and working capital analytics capabilities. This was when they discovered TIS.
