Business Planning & Control

We help implement a flexible business planning, management, and analytics solution that enables real, data-driven decision-making. The solution is relevant regardless of whether your company uses standard accounting systems or advanced business management tools.

Our solution can be implemented within 2 months and is more cost-effective than developing complex systems or deploying new ones, allowing clients to quickly realize real benefits without significant investments or disruptions to existing systems.

 

How we work:

  1. Data analysis and model review
    • We assess your IT systems and data quality
    • We identify what is worth digitizing
    • We prepare a solid data foundation for decision-making
  2. Data model creation
    • We integrate data from different systems
    • We enable comprehensive data analysis
    • We ensure targeted access to data
  3. Deployment of business analytics tools
    • We implement our proprietary FEFM system
    • We develop a model with over 90 dimensions and over 100 indicators
    • We ensure data security and daily updates

The FEFM solution includes the integration of financial and supplementary data and automated data processing. All necessary indicators and data slices (dimensions) are predefined – minimizing the time spent on data preparation. As a result, your team spends less time preparing data and more time on business management. This enables more effective evaluation of the company’s current position, data-driven decision-making, increased transparency, activity monitoring, and comparing plans with actual results. Indicators are analyzed using the FEFM analytical tool or performance analysis reports.

 

FEFM Solution Capabilities
