Trading | Maximize Profit with P&L Simulations
The Challenge: Before EPA
Separate Excel files per scenario
Each P&L scenario was stored in a separate Excel file, making it hard to maintain consistency
Manual factor adjustments for every scenario
Key factors such as price, FX, and labor costs had to be manually adjusted each time
Manual scenario comparison required significant effort
Comparing scenarios meant constant file checking and manual cross-referencing
No version control — frequent duplicate versions
Lack of version control created confusion over which file was the latest
Running one simulation could take up to 3h
Slow simulations bottlenecked the entire planning process
High manual workload and slow decision-making
Teams spent excessive time on data preparation instead of strategic analysis
Previous Workflow: Excel-Based Simulation
Separate Excel files and manual workflows create duplicate scenarios and slow decision-making
The Solution: After EPA
All scenarios compared side-by-side on a single web platform
No more switching between separate Excel files for comparison
Built-in version control cuts duplicate scenario creation by 60%
Automatic versioning eliminates confusion over which file is the latest
Simulation time drastically reduced from 3h to 15 min
12x faster simulations accelerate decision-making across the team
Users can enter and adjust simulation values directly online
No manual factor adjustments needed — instant parameter changes
Instant visual charts and tables for quick insights
Revenue & OER forecasts displayed through interactive visualizations
Estimated annual savings of $180K
Improved workflow significantly reduces manual overhead and operational costs
