Story
Consumer Discretionary work at Sega Sammy spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Japan. Financial planning was splitting across regional habits. FP&A asked for a shared way to run planning and forecasting without freezing local judgment.
Intuit (QuickBooks) is what they standardized on. Intuit builds financial software for consumers and small and midsize businesses, including QuickBooks, TurboTax, Mailchimp, and Credit Karma. Sega Sammy uses it as the system of record for financial planning, with FP&A as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
