“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."

“Our team currently spend 60% of their time planning in spreadsheets, utilising Anaplan for demand, supply, material and production planning will enable us to save a huge amount of time and allow for analysis of the data and more accurate planning.”

“It’s been great, we had a fairly new CO2 modelling team, working in Excel and they managed to prove the business case in Anaplan very quickly. Discussions can now be held at a Board level to determine how we can work best, and which cars we should build to remain …

"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.”

“With growth like this comes a huge amount of change and diversity. As a result, we have accumulated a broad group of financial and accounting systems and it was clear that we needed a robust consolidation of these systems and an FP&A budgeting platform."

“Bedford as an implementation partner has been completely flexible to our needs, technically they understood our requirements and helped us deliver a product that is now key in our day-to-day planning and reporting.”

“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.”

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

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

“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.”

“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.”
