About Client

The Challenge
The legacy planning system posed significant operational and collaboration challenges that constrained the organization’s ability to plan effectively:
- High dependency on manual data uploads and reconciliations.
- Limited integration between HR and Finance planning data.
- Rigid workflows and version management.
- Lack of real-time synchronization between headcount and cost models.
- Minimal visibility into the financial implications of workforce changes.
These limitations led to planning delays, data inconsistencies, and reduced confidence in forecasts. With growing business scale and complexity, the need for a modern, integrated, and automated planning solution became critical.
