Executive Summary
Ahold Delhaize USA was shifting to lean budgeting but lacked supporting systems. Manual processes and siloed data hindered resource allocation and financial reporting. They needed to connect strategy to execution and prove the value of their Agile approach to their parent organization.
Cprime integrated systems and automated processes for Peapod Digital Labs (PDL)—now dba Ahold Delhaize USA Services—saving time and supporting better decision-making across the organization.

“Since implementing TargetProcess and the accompanying automation, we’re seeing vast improvements across the org in terms of time savings, greater visibility into the data, and a more strategic, data-driven approach to decision-making.” — Grant Williams, Senior Finance Director TBM
