38 Bedford Consulting Testimonials

“It is part an ongoing organisational change where we think about our business and work processes in a different way.”

“We chose Anaplan as it’s an open, flexible and configurable platform. This means that we can use it to create the solution that suite our current processes but also develop as we mature as an organisation.”

“It’s giving us back time which means my team can provide analysis rather than simply collating and aggregating numbers.”

“It’s made it possible for our business controlling team to respond to business needs when they arise compared to when we needed 2-3 days of work in Excel.”

“Partnering with Anaplan and Bedford Consulting for our FP&A processes will support our continued growth at Lucid Group. Our processes will be streamlined enabling us to make agile decisions on business drivers with transparency into our data across finance and capacity plans.”

“Making changes to the plan or doing “what-if” analysis was a huge amount of manual effort for us before using Anaplan and by the time we had completed the analysis, the data was no longer up to date."

“Nurture days provide an invaluable touchpoint to a team of experts to help steer our Anaplan journey to the right place.”

“We now have deeper insights and can plan more collaboratively and strategically for the future – which has really improved how we work.”

“Based on our data, we understand what’s going on, and our forecasts tell us how the world will be in the future. We can now act smarter and faster.”

“We are excited to design our FP&A and stock planning processes in Anaplan with the support from Bedford Consulting’s expert team. We will be enabled to make better decisions through increased visibility and transparency into business drivers as well as giving time back across the team.”

“We’ve estimated a 70% reduction in time spent target-setting. This has freed up our field sales managers to spend more time with their sales teams and their customers.”

“During the period of supermarket panic buying, we used Anaplan to help us walk the tightrope between maximising sales but not going out of stock. We used our forecasting model to accurately calculate and manage our stock levels at any given time.”

“It became clear that our previous business planning processes in spreadsheets and legacy tools would not be sustainable to support our growth plans. Having experience of Anaplan at a previous company, we knew that it was the right platform to enable CatSci on its growth trajectory, whilst giving time back to the team to spend on value-add activities.”

“We are excited to move away from disconnected planning processes and design our demand, supply, and distribution planning processes in Anaplan with the support from Bedford Consulting’s expert team. With a strong focus on cash flow and product life cycle management, we want to link our planning processes tightly together to give us a more comprehensive picture of ongoing operations, enabling us to make strategic choices and quickly adapt to market changes.”

“Knowing the pain I previously went through to create a revenue forecast, to see that now in Anaplan and to build and run it in Anaplan and be able to answer a question from my CFO within an hour, as opposed to a couple of days work is incredible. It really does give you back the time to spend on other activities such as what-if analysis and adding value not just churning out data.”
