On track for reporting success:Stadler publishes with ns.wow
Stadler is one of the world’s leading manufacturers in the rail vehicle industry. With more than 17,100 employees across locations in Switzerland, Europe, the UK, and the United States, the company stands for quality, innovation, and sustainable mobility. For its 2025 Annual Report, Stadler has chosen ns.wow with the modules Finance Plus, PDF Plus, Translate Plus, and Tagging Plus.
The implementation is based on a centralised content platform, enabling an efficient, precise, and future-ready reporting process for a globally operating listed company.
KI-generiertAI-generatedInternational complexity, centrally managed
Producing an annual report for a global company with multiple business segments and multilingual requirements demands the highest standards in processes and technology. Stadler’s key objectives included:
- Multilingual publishing from a single content source
- Simple and intuitive application usability
- Collaboration at article level
- Error-free and consistent financial data across all segments and chapters
- Print-ready PDF output in premium quality – directly from the platform
- Structured, machine-readable data to meet regulatory requirements
- Multi-channel output to PDF, XBRL, and, in future, online formats
PDF PlusProfessional PDF output directly from the platform
The result speaks for itself: Stadler’s 2025 Annual Report is delivered as a high-quality, professionally typeset, print-ready PDF. Clear typography, precise tables, and a consistent visual appearance across all chapters are generated directly within ns.wow. With PDF Plus, layouts, data, and design specifications are implemented reliably and reproducibly.
Translate PlusMultilingual reporting without additional effort
As an internationally active company, Stadler publishes its Annual Report in multiple languages. Translate Plus enables structured translation directly from the central content platform while fully preserving formatting, data references, and layout.
The result is a linguistically consistent report — without parallel editorial processes or redundant workflows.
KI-generiertAI-generatedFinance PlusReliable and error-free integration of financial data
With an extensive set of financial figures, Stadler places the highest demands on data consistency. Finance Plus imports all financial KPIs and tables from upstream systems and automatically transfers them into the designed layout of the Annual Report. This delivers decisive advantages:
- Consistent figures throughout the entire report
- Automated integration without manual transfer errors
- Centralised management and efficient updating of tables
- Full traceability of all changes
This ensures that every figure is accurate — from high-level summaries to detailed financial statements.
Tagging PlusRegulatory compliance and future-ready technology
With Tagging Plus, Stadler can create a machine-readable report with audit-ready XBRL and iXBRL data. This ensures reliable compliance with regulatory requirements such as ESEF and IFRS while also supporting future ESG reporting developments.
Content is structured directly from the central content platform, making it efficiently processable for regulatory authorities, systems, and AI applications alike. This means Stadler is not only compliant today, but also ideally prepared for future reporting requirements.
