Implement, enhance and optimise planning, budgeting and forecasting model

Matasma engaged with one of the globally operated certification and testing service providers to implement, integrate and enhance their planning, budgeting, and forecasting model

Challenges

Global supply chain issues, such as semiconductor shortages, can impact production and delivery.
  • Integration: Wanted to automate the data refresh from Oracle NetSuite to Anaplan in a cost-effective way
  • Deployment: Too much time was spent in enhancing the existing models, which was leading to delayed delivery
  • Customization: High degree of customization in budgeting and forecasting process
  • Scalability: Model occupied 90% of the workspace size, leading to the challenges in building applications

Our Approach

01
The existing excel based planning process was cumbersome, often taking up to 3 weeks to develop rolling forecast.
  • Integrated Netsuite with Anaplan Cloud works through Power Automate and Azure Blob storage containers in a cost-effective manner
  • Used Matasma’s proprietary model decoding tools to enhance models
  • Implemented robust customized planning models using the anaplan multi-dimensional capability
  • Implemented customized forecasting process and analytics for unified decision making

Delivered Outcomes

Global supply chain issues, such as semiconductor shortages, can impact production and delivery.
  • Anaplan became Unified decision making platform for all customer needs
  • Able to decode the model in 1 week and started delivering the value to customer
  • Implemented robust, customized planning models using the Anaplan multi-dimensional capability
  • Improved the forecasting accuracy to 95% through triangulation process: Statistical forecasting, top down data and bottom up forecasting
