Anaplan for Specialty Finance Planning
Deliver stronger business insights
Connect specialty planning to central finance
Finance doesn’t need to dig deeper for better business insights—it needs to dig differently. Spreadsheets and legacy planning systems struggle to provide the necessary clarity, transparency, and visibility into data, and contribute to disconnected cost management practices that seldom align with central finance and the core planning, budgeting, and forecasting process. Anaplan for Specialty Planning offers businesses an escape from arduous, siloed technologies by enabling you to streamline manual, disjointed processes while connecting them back to central finance.
With Anaplan’s cloud-based platform, you can create profitability and pricing models, automate cost management practices, and adopt an unlimited range of specialty planning use cases that can connect to central finance and core FP&A processes. Plan to the rhythm of your business by accommodating specific business needs, adopting best practices, and delivering stronger insights that drive profitable growth, maximize cash flow, and address risk.
