Integrated Planning & Reporting with SAC and IBP

What it's about

One driver tree from sales volume to liquidity

Scenarios that once called for lengthy coordination now reach you in real time.

‍
Excel files that fail due to their size or version compatibility. Overnight reconciliation runs. A forecast that is out of date before it is finished. Modern planning should not look like this.

‍

We build your integrated corporate planning on SAP Analytics Cloud, embedded in the Business Data Cloud. One model, one driver tree: change the sales plan and the effect flows automatically through to earnings and liquidity.

Your challenges

Why the decision is being taken now

Fragmented sources of figures
Every source has its own truth, its own format and its own contact person.‍
‍
Our answer: one platform instead of many sources. Business Data Cloud as the common basis.
Figures that contradict each other
When sales, controlling and treasury each keep their own files, the meeting debates sources instead of measures.
‍
‍Our answer: one data basis that everyone reads from.
Forecast cycles measured in weeks
Collecting and consolidating eats up precisely the time needed to simulate and to decide.‍
‍
Our answer: simulate instead of collect.

Our promise
