Case Study: Building financial strength at Kajima Building & Design Group
Key results
The challenge
Kajima Building & Design Group relied on outdated financial reporting software and a 149-sheet Excel workbook, slowing monthly work-in-progress (WIP) and cost projection reporting and making it hard to spot struggling projects.
The solution
KBD Group replaced its legacy tools with Prophix One Financial Planning & Analysis to automate WIP and cost projection reporting and plan personnel costs at a detailed level.
“What I love about Prophix is that it gives us back time. Rather than just focusing on checking numbers, we have more time to evaluate, analyze, and see the interesting side of the business.”

The results, in context
KBD Group reduced monthly WIP and cost projection reporting time by 50%, from 5 hours to 2.5 hours, and streamlined processes to handle 3x the volume of business without increasing staff. It replaced its outdated financial reporting software in under 30 days.
