Financial Planning and Analysis 

Thousands of organisations worldwide trust IBM Planning Analytics (previously known as TM1) with their financial plans, budgets and forecasts. IBM Planning Analytics enabled them to move beyond spreadsheets, creating financial profitability plans that are robust, trusted, and able to respond rapidly to changing conditions in the market or organisation. 

Planning Analytics addresses all the traditional problems inherent in spreadsheet models such as the lack of scalability, model fragility, and formulae errors. It provides FP&A teams with the ability to easily build plans, compare multiple different scenarios, collect data and make changes in real-time. 

Rolling Forecasts and plans can cross financial years, and the built-in predictive forecasting can automatically generate future forecasts. Powerful business-modelling capability allows automation of the whole planning process, including automated cashflows and working capital models generated by the relevant business drivers.   

 

Start small and scale-up 

IBM Planning Analytics can easily scale-up to huge volumes of data. FP&A teams often start in one area, making quick wins and gaining some time back from laborious number-crunching, then expanding to take in other models, markets or parts of the organisation. At Aramar, we recommend this kind of modular approach which shortens time-to-value and is particularly suited to Planning Analytics deployment. 

We recommend deployment via Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provided by IBM, but Planning Analytics is also available for installation locally on your own hardware or public cloud.
