Before EPA: Manual, Slow and Unstable Excel-Based Planning

1

Manual departmental data collection

Monthly cost data was manually collected from each department using Excel.

2

Frequent crashes & slow performance

Extremely large Excel files caused frequent crashes and slow performance.

3

3~4 second scroll lag

Even basic scrolling took 3~4 seconds, slowing down daily work.

4

Inefficient data consolidation

Data consolidation required juggling many files — inefficient and error-prone.

5

No real-time data connection

No real-time data connection, making planning and simulation slow and disconnected.

6

Previous system build failed

A previous attempt to build a system failed after 4 months, highlighting technical and operational challenges.

After EPA: Fast, Real-time, and Fully Integrated Planning System

1

Excel-like system, minimal training

A new system was built that works just like Excel, minimizing training needs.

4

No more Excel lag & crashes

Instant data access eliminates Excel lag and crashes — stable performance.

2

One-week deployment

The system was launched within one week, enabling rapid adoption.

5

Real-time integrated planning

Real-time integration for planning, simulation, and reporting ensures consistent, up-to-date information.

3

5x faster data collection & simulation

Data collection and simulation became 5x faster through real-time automation.

6

93.9% work time reduction

Total work time was reduced by 93.9%, significantly improving productivity and accuracy.
