Maheshwar Gourishetti shares how enterprise-grade EPM architecture drives measurable business impact. Drawing on large-scale OneStream and Oracle EPM Cloud implementations, he explains how custom integrations, automated reconciliation, and scalable design reduce close times, eliminate manual risk, and enable real-time forecasting across complex, multi-entity organizations.

This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. In conversation with Maheshwar Gorishetti, architecting enterprise performance management solutions by Sonja Kapoor. Enterprise Performance Management, EPM, initiatives increasingly determine how global organizations forecast growth, allocate capital, and manage financial risk. While many enterprises adopt modern EPM platforms, relatively few professionals possess the depth of technical and business expertise required Tio Architect solutions that operate reliably at scale while delivering measurable operational gains. Among these specialists, Maheshwar Gorishetti

has distinguished himself through original, enterprise-wide EPM architectures thought they've transformed financial planning and consolidation processes across multiple industries. With over 15 years of specialized experience spanning retail, technology, life sciences, and energy sectors, Gorishati has led an architected large-scale implement. of Onestream and Oracle EPM cloud platforms for complex multi-entity organizations. His work consistently goes beyond standard platform configuration, focusing instead on designing scalable architectures that replace fragmented legacy systems, reduce manual effort, and materially improve decision-making accuracy. Original contributions in enterprise EPM architecture. A defining

aspect of Goroschetti's work is his ability to design original EPM architectures tailored to complex operational realities rather than relying on-out-of-the-box implementations. In one enterprise retail engagement, he architected a One-stream-based FP and a solution integrating data for more than a dozen source systems, including SAP and enterprise data warehouses. His design introduced custom business rules and automated reconciliation frameworks that reduced financial close timelines by over 50% while eliminating thousands of hours of recurring manual effort annually. Rather than adopting standard integration pattern, Gorshetti designed customized Cube 2 Cube and App 2 app data pipelines to support high-volume

consolidations without performance degradation. These architectural decisions enabled finance teams to shift from spreadsheet-based forecasting to real-time scenario modeling, significantly improving forecast accuracy and operational responsiveness. Greater than effective EPM architecture is not about deploying tools. It's about designing greater than systems that finance teams contrast at scale, Goros Chetee explains. My greater than focus has always been on building solutions that eliminate manual risk while greater than enabling leadership to act on timely, accurate data. Leading in critical roles in complex implementations. Across multiple enterprise environments, Gore Chetty has served in leading in critical roles where his architectural decisions directly

influenced organizational outcomes. In several implementations, he was responsible for end-to-end solution design, including requirements definition, technical architecture, security models, and deployment strategy. Business stakeholders and implementation teams relied on his guidance to resolve complex planning and consolidation challenges involving logistics P&L modeling, grant management, treasury forecasting, and multi-entity consolidations. In one global implementation, his architecture enabled field users across multiple regions to perform detailed P&L analysis by distribution center, a capability previously unavailable due to system limitations. The resulting solution became the organization's standard financial planning platform,

supporting hundreds of users and multiple business functions. Recognized expertise across cloud EPM ecosystems. Gorishetti's work spans Oracle EPM Cloud, EPBCS, PBCS, EDMCS, OneSt, and Legacy Hyperion platforms, positioning him as a cross-platform architect capable of guiding organization. through complex migrations. He has led transitions from on-premise Hyperion environments to cloud native architectures, designing migration strategies that preserved data integrity while improving performance, scalability, and governance.

His technical expertise includes developing advanced business rules using VB, N.E. Tanned Groovy, architecting automated validation frameworks, and implementing row-based dashboards that balance usability with enterprise security requirements. These solutions have enabled far. finance organizations to reduce dependency on IT intervention while maintaining strong data governance. About Maheshwar Gorishetti.
