Streamlined Forecasting at Rumpke

Rumpke replaces its complex planning and forecasting processes with SAP Analytics Cloud for improved efficiency, accuracy, and data accessibility.

The challenge

Rumpke’s legacy planning system made it challenging to meet the complex forecasting needs of its departments. The system couldn’t keep up with detailed sales, operations, and expense planning while meeting strict regulatory requirements. Departments like Logistics, Fleet Management, and Recycling relied on manual processes that were slow, error-prone, and frustrating. These inefficiencies delayed forecasts and left leadership without the timely insights they needed to make informed decisions.

The process

Rumpke partnered with SandPoint Consulting to develop a solution that tackled their key challenges head-on. SandPoint implemented a driver-based planning system to create dynamic, adaptable forecasts, introduced 24-month rolling forecasts for continuous visibility, and automated the forecasting process to minimize user input. By integrating SAP S/4 and SAP Analytics Cloud into a unified cloud-based platform, the solution streamlined data management and improved accessibility across the organization.

The result

With a SandPoint Consulting built SAC solution, Rumpke achieved:

  • Decreased Planning Time: Reduced the time and effort required to complete planning cycles.
  • Improved Forecast Accuracy: Standardized, driver-based models delivered more consistent and reliable forecasts.
  • Enhanced Executive Visibility: Monthly forecasts provided leaders with timely, actionable insights.
  • Minimized Manual Inputs: Automating forecasting processes reduced reliance on manual effort, increasing efficiency.
  • Accessible Data: Forecasts became available for integration into company dashboards in real-time.

“We are now allocating more time for analyzing data and trends, with less effort on simply creating the plan. SandPoint Consulting helped us realize the value of SAC by their product expertise and accounting knowledge.”
