“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."

“Anaplan will revolutionise the way in which our demand forecasting operates, giving us total control over the levers to pull to support our customers and partners in delivering the best offering for consumers.”

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

“Several years ago, I attended a workshop where Anaplan invited different companies to try out their platform for the purpose of planning, reporting and analysis."

“We recently partnered with Bedford to migrate a number of our dashboards to The UX. Bedford made this process seamless, easily digestible and the end result is something the whole team is very pleased with. We now have more visually appealing dashboards that are easier to navigate, enabling us to …

“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.”
