About DNV GL

In its 2015 financial year, DNV GL generated revenues of around 2.43 billion euro.

Status quo and objectives

Strong inorganic growth and an international merger have given rise to a global player which has a heterogeneous IT system landscape. The data relevant to the treasury department are stored in various systems located in different parts of the world. Due to short-term and non-standardised reporting requirements, it was extremely work-intensive to centrally manage intercompany funding. The primary objective was to simply achieve more efficiency and transparency in treasury processes and structures by means of a reporting solution.

TIP implementation

TIP was implemented as a lean data centre in order to consolidate the treasury data already stored in SAP, BOFC, ATAQ, Excel and other stand-alone solutions, to avoid manual data entries and to enable all data to be analysed centrally. The concept of a global FX exposure was established for the first time. As a result of a clear reporting and account clearing process, it is now possible to allocate funds within the group. A system of guarantee settlement was also established as well as achieving an optimisation of the intercompany settlement process by means of setting up clearing reports based on SAP/BOFC. A standardised online reporting package, which is available both to head office and the subsidiaries, ensures transparency of information and support in the areas of management reporting and treasury decision-making.
