BDO Canada Cut Market Intelligence Updates From 8 Hours to 1 With ZoomInfo

The Canadian advisory firm replaced a day-long manual process with a direct ZoomInfo integration, and added forward-looking buying signals to how it measures client value

VANCOUVER, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ZoomInfo (NASDAQ: GTM), the all-in-one AI GTM platform, has reported that BDO Canada, a leading advisory firm serving clients from startups to enterprises, has cut the time to update its market intelligence dashboards from eight hours to one, an 87% reduction, according to the company.

For an advisory firm, market intelligence is the edge. The difference between winning and losing a high-value relationship often comes down to knowing what a client needs before they do. Yet before ZoomInfo, BDO Canada gathered that intelligence by hand. Updating a single dashboard meant going into the data platform, downloading the information, and transforming it manually. It was a day-long process.

That cost more than time. While analysts wrangled data, the intelligence team could not give stakeholders the real-time insight they needed to act at the speed of their markets. And the firm's Client Value Index, which ranked relationships on revenue, engagement, and project history, was backward-looking. None of it showed where a client was headed next.

A direct data integration changed both problems. The manual work disappeared, and dashboard updates that once took eight hours now finish in one. The team calls the integration plug-and-play, easy to slot into any process, with information at a moment's notice. Then buying signals gave BDO Canada a forward-facing metric it never had. What a client is searching for signals where that client is trying to go, so the firm folded those predictive signals into its Client Value Index. Self-service dashboards let stakeholders across the firm filter their own insights instead of waiting on one team.

The results were fast. Dashboard updates dropped 87%, from eight hours to one, freeing analysts for strategic work instead of data wrangling, according to the company. The Client Value Index became forward-looking, moving client management from reactive to proactive. And self-service dashboards spread intelligence across multiple internal teams.

BDO Canada frames it as more than a software purchase. It transformed the firm's whole approach to go-to-market intelligence, moving from manual processes to real-time insight, from backward-looking metrics to forward-facing signals, and from departmental silos to firm-wide sharing. The firm continues to look for ways to work smarter at scale.
