Oracle EPM & OneStream for Manufacturing & Industrials
Multi-entity consolidation, intercompany eliminations at scale, standard costing and capital-heavy planning. We’ve built finance systems for steel, packaging, building products, cement, dairy, chemicals and pharmaceutical manufacturers across Australia, New Zealand and Asia.
Manufacturing is the sector we’ve worked in most, and the longest. Some of these relationships go back to 2004 and are still running. A manufacturer’s close is not a services firm’s close: dozens of legal entities and plants, intercompany trading that has to net to zero, standard costing that finance can rarely see clearly, and a capital plan that dwarfs the operating budget. We start from those problems, not from a platform demo.
Consolidation across many entities
Multiple legal entities, plants and currencies rolling up under more than one accounting standard, with intercompany eliminations that have to net to zero every period.
Costing finance can’t see
Standard costing, variances and product or plant profitability stranded in the ERP and never surfaced in a form the finance team can plan against.
Capital-heavy planning
Asset-level capital plans and volume × price driver models per plant, where the capex view matters as much as the P&L.
Many source systems
SAP, Oracle and Dynamics feeding a slow, manual close, with no common chart of accounts across the group.
Source systems
- SAP / Oracle ERP / Dynamics
- Multiple entities & plants
- Costing & volume data
OneStream / Oracle EPM
- Consolidation — IC elimination, FX, multi-GAAP
- Driver-based planning & capex
- Product / plant profitability
Outputs
- Board & statutory reporting
- Plant dashboards
- Forecast vs actual
Validated, mapped source loads feed a single platform for close, planning and profitability — the same pattern whether the engine is OneStream or Oracle Cloud EPM.
Our manufacturing clients include BlueScope Steel, alongside global packaging manufacturers, building-products groups, a national dairy co-operative, cement and carbon producers, and pharmaceutical and consumer-goods makers across Australia, New Zealand and India. Many can’t be named here; the depth is real either way.

A building-products group
Group consolidation and driver-based planning across multiple manufacturing entities and brands.
