GAIN wins new project for Anaplan Connected Planning

🌍 Global Expertise + Local Support = The GAIN Advantage Global doesn’t mean one-size-fits-all — and Anaplan rollouts across multiple regions fail when they’re managed like copy-paste projects. At GAIN (Global Anaplan Implementation Network), we know that successful adoption only happens when your people on the ground feel supported — in their language, their time zone, and their context. Our clients don’t want multiple vendors across their territories. They want one team that can scale geographically with them — and that’s exactly why we built GAIN. GAIN offers Global Expertise + Local Support: seamless delivery of global Anaplan programs through a trusted network of local experts. Here’s what that really means: ✅ One unified framework for consistency — with flexibility where it matters most ✅ Training and support in local languages ✅ In-person or in-market engagement for smoother change management With 300+ consultants and 1,000+ projects delivered across 400+ clients, GAIN ensures that global Anaplan programs deliver world-leading innovation, faster ROI and lasting business impact. 💬 Drop your biggest global rollout challenge in the comments 👇 📩 Curious about how GAIN works in practice?

This approach tackles a recurring challenge in global system rollouts, balancing standardisation with localisation. GAIN (Global Anaplan Implementation Network) model highlights something many overlook, change management is local, even when the platform is global. Supporting users where they are, in ways that resonate with them, is not just a “nice to have", it's essential! Great to see this level of strategic thinking applied to Anaplan implementations.

🔹 Lessons from the Field: Bridging Strategy and Execution through Integrated Planning In the evolving world of EPM, the real power of planning lies in connecting top-down strategy with bottom-up execution. Many organizations struggle to balance these two approaches—executives set strategic targets while operational teams plan based on real-world constraints. But when both are integrated within the same EPM model, the outcome is transformative. I’ve seen it firsthand. In one project, leadership defined clear revenue and cost targets at the corporate level. Operational teams then built detailed forecasts within those boundaries. Through iterative reconciliation, the EPM system highlighted gaps, surfaced inefficiencies, and helped teams realign plans—until both strategy and operations spoke the same language. Here’s why this matters: ✅ Top-Down Planning sets strategic direction—defining KPIs, targets, and expense caps that guide the business. ✅ Bottom-Up Planning adds operational precision—teams forecast, refine, and contribute insights from the ground up. ✅ Integrated Planning bridges both—creating one connected model that aligns every plan with business strategy. The result is more than accurate numbers—it’s alignment, accountability, and agility. Departments plan with purpose, leadership gains visibility, and decisions become faster and better informed. 💡 EPM’s greatest strength isn’t just automation—it’s integration. When strategy and execution are connected within one planning framework, organizations move from isolated plans to a unified vision that truly drives performance. #EPM #EnterprisePerformanceManagement #OracleEPM #DigitalTransformation #DataDriven #BusinessStrategy #FinancialPlanning #PerformanceManagement #Budgeting #Forecasting #FinancialConsolidation #BusinessIntelligence #CorporateFinance #DataAnalytics #TechAdoption #MEA #BusinessOptimization #OperationalEfficiency #ERP #FP&A #Oracle #OracleFCCS #OraclePBCS #OracleERP #OracleFusion #OracleEPBCS #OracleFusion #FusionEPM #Fusion #Cloud
