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

“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.”

“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 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.”

“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 …

“As our customers continue to drive demand for the product, we recognised a need for a more robust and consolidated approach to our supply chain to ensure that the products arrive at stores in a timely manner. With Anaplan, we hope to stay even further ahead of the demand.”

“We have also benefited from the use of the knowledge Exchange on Slack – the team is always responsive, and we get answers to our questions no matter what we throw at them.”

“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’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 …

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

“In today’s competitive business environment, technology can be the decisive factor between success and failure.”

“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."

“Working with Bedford, with its agile, sprint methodology, allowed us to meet our target and deliver budget and forecast on time. With new features, use cases and developments happening all the time, I can see us building on our partnership with both Anaplan and Bedford for years to come."

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

“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."
