    Problem Statement Problem Statement

    The client is a global IT observability and infrastructure management software company serving 300,000+ customers across 190+ countries. Following its 2024 private equity acquisition, the GCC needed to modernize its legacy Anaplan estate, reduce manual overhead, improve FP&A usability, and maximize ROI from planning technology.

    • Data from NetSuite, Greenhouse, and Coupa was manually uploaded into Anaplan.
    • FP&A needed faster, cleaner, and more scalable planning workflows.
    • Sales Ops still operated outside Anaplan using Excel and Tableau.
