“Together with Anaplan, we are seeing increased appetite and momentum
for Connected Planning solutions across industries and verticals to give
our clients a competitive edge amidst constant, disruptive and
unpredictable market changes,” said Ed Majors, principal, Deloitte
Consulting LLP, and US & Global Anaplan Alliance Leader. “We are honored
to be at the forefront of delivering innovative solutions to the market
with Anaplan that are enhancing business planning and execution for
sales, operations, and finance.”
By combining the flexibility, customizable capabilities, and power of
Anaplan’s platform for Connected Planning with Deloitte’s strategic
planning capabilities and seasoned industry professionals, the alliance
delivers solutions that address workforce planning, sales planning,
financial planning and analysis and tax planning across industries like
Oil and Gas, Insurance, CPG and Retail.
One of the market-changing solutions jointly launched by the two
companies is a new Digital Commercial
Planning Solution that provides consumer goods and retail companies
a holistic view of performance across markets, channels and categories.
The highly customizable solution allows customers to leverage Anaplan’s
cloud-based platform with Deloitte’s revenue management analytics
platform, DemandBrain™, to help joint customers drive faster, better
decisions through automation. Initial wins include a gaming company and
one of the world’s largest beer brewing companies that are looking to
optimize their own go-to-market efforts.
“From the rise of e-commerce to rapidly evolving consumer expectations,
the confluence of disruptive trends is forcing consumer goods companies
to rethink their planning and decision making capabilities,” said Ana
Pinczuk, Chief Transformation Officer at Anaplan. “With Deloitte, we
jointly created a custom-built commercial planning solution that
connects people, data, and plans to enable real-time decision-making and
give consumer products companies a competitive edge.”
