Huntsman selects Accenture

Accenture, working with Huntsman, will design, implement and manage enterprise performance management and business intelligence applications that support Huntsman’s operations globally.

The new solution is expected to improve the speed of reporting and will lay a foundation for better decision making. It will serve all of Huntsman’s global businesses and corporate functions and will include financial consolidations, management reporting and business intelligence spanning a broad range of financial and operational processes.

“In order to effectively compete in today’s environment, we need a modern, integrated system that enables us to make use of our data to improve decision making, planning and reporting,” said Randy W. Wright, vice president and corporate controller from Huntsman. “We selected Accenture to help us with this implementation due to its knowledge of our business, proven track record with SAP HANA® systems and analytics experience.”

Edmund Delussey, managing director and digital lead for chemicals & natural resources at Accenture, said: “Working together with Huntsman, we have been able to develop a self-funding program of strategy, technology and analytics initiatives that justified a business case to implement the SAP HANA® platform. The resulting solution, provided by Accenture Analytics, part of Accenture Digital, will be simpler and easier to maintain and should provide Huntsman with additional business insights across the organization.”
