Our Story: Implementing a global planning model
Our Finance goals – transformWhat we did. How we did it.
• Utilized virtual data sets for transactional level details
• Tied operations and financial data in the same system as financial planning
• Streamlined data integration inside Anaplan, which optimized process • Example: Replaced 2-day
data transformations (performed in India with an industry leading ETL tool) with a 1-step Anaplan integration process that eliminated the time delay
• Twelve worked with our analysts to automate a critical set of reports that eliminated days of consolidation work • Another vendor had been
unsuccessfully trying to create reports in Spotfire for 12 months
• Anaplan had no problem overcoming specific data exceptions that were impossible to fix in a SQL database.
• 1 report saved 10 man-hours a month of analyst effort
