38 Bedford Consulting Testimonials

"We believe Anaplan’s flexible platform will help us standardise nimble performance management processes that not only support our teams but help us meet new opportunities as we continue to grow.”

“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.”

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

“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.”

“Anaplan had the dynamism, scalability, UX and new age approach that other systems did not."

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

“Originally, we chose Anaplan to automate financial planning and analysis but over the past six months, we have expanded beyond finance.”

“We have been able to considerably reduce time spent on manual tasks and it has enabled us to spend more time analysing data.”

"The duration of the project was from mid-June to mid-October – only 4 months to set up a budget process for an 10,000 employee company. The goal was to not only replace the existing budget tool which was slow, but also to introduce some workflows into the budgeting process which would help to reduce the number of weeks used for budgeting. I can safely say that we achieved everything which was discussed in our initial kick-off meetings and were also able to add some extras which cropped up along the way aswell."

“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.”

“Bedford people are not just techies and not just talkers: they know when to roll up their sleeves and get the graft done. We consider ourselves lucky to have worked with Bedford and plan to do so for the foreseeable future.”

“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 engage with senior management more effectively.”

“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."

“Anaplan has helped us gain consistency across all teams when range planning. Modules can be used by multiple users at the same time without slowing down the process – a big improvement from using shared Excel files. The Bedford team have been so helpful in adjusting the model to suit our changing needs.”
