Global Manufacturing Company Logo

Anaplan gives us global visibility to our workforce costs, our workforce headcount. It gives us a forward-looking view of where we’re spending our human capital dollars in one consistent platform. There’s never been, in the history of Whirlpool Corporation, when we’ve been able to say we can do that. So, it was a big win when it came to bringing everything together under the one platform.

We’ve built a quarterly forecast in the model for staff expenses, which allows us to track headcount forecasts based on active employees and vacancies. This has helped us maintain a holistic view of our workforce in one platform.
