Budgeting and Forecasting Solutions
Effective budgeting, planning and forecasting is essential for a business to be able to best manage its workforce and resources.
Short-comings of the Budgeting & Forecasting solutions
These days it is not unusual for businesses to attempt to complete their budget using the data capture module of their ERP or perhaps a bespoke spreadsheet solution. The problem with these approaches is that they use products that have not been designed with collaborative corporate budgeting in mind. Spreadsheet systems are cumbersome, single user and prone to error. ERP modules can be clumsy to use and may focus on capturing data at general ledger level. It is not uncommon for departments to use multiple or incompatible tools and collect data at different levels. The result is inaccuracies, delays and slow budget cycle times.
Modern day Budgeting & Forecasting Solutions must allow executives to
- Create and manage planning models that are connected to market and operational drivers of the organization
- Evaluate the impact of changing assumptions on projected financial futures
- Support planning models with data from the general ledger, human resources, point of sale, fixed assets, transaction detail, and other systems and sources including market data
- Engage in true enterprise planning with robust workflows, role-based security and automated report production that can support thousands of users
- Spend more time on strategy and planning by reducing the amount of time spent reconciling and managing data
BI Strategy and Roadmap
Your company has a well-defined goal and mission and you have also invested in the best known BI solutions for your projects but have you defined a strategy and a map to reach your goal? Simple example is, when you plan for a long weekend trip to a place 50miles away. What is the first step you do? You plan your journey, look at the map and define your road map and then follow so that you reach destination with minimal disruption. If you don’t plan your Strategy and roadmap, you may lose time, costs more to reach your destination and most importantly you missed your goal.
Simply investing in BI Platform is not enough. You need to ensure that your BI solution supports your strategic goals and delivers significant business value.
Our BI strategy experts work closely with you to evaluate and prioritize your business strategies, then link them to specific BI capabilities that enable the execution of the strategies.
Developed in collaboration with business and IT stakeholders, your BI roadmap provides you with a pragmatic, phased series of initiatives, including any required process and organizational changes that enable your business to evolve to your successful future state. And when you’re ready to execute on that strategy, our strategy team can stay on to manage the effort – even providing and leading Padhukas’s global BI practice to do the work, if desired.
