Anaplan Consulting and Delivery
Waverton Consulting Group delivers Anaplan connected planning engagements for Australian and New Zealand finance, sales and supply chain teams: model builds, CoE support, model optimisation and ongoing managed delivery. Our consultants have delivered Anaplan across financial planning and analysis, sales performance management, workforce planning and supply chain programmes in financial services, professional services and distribution.
Anaplan's value is in connected planning across the functions that plan in silos today. Getting to that value requires model builds that are architecturally sound, calculation-efficient and built for the end users who will operate them rather than for technical elegance alone. Waverton delivers models that perform and that the planning team can own after handover.
Financial planning and analysis model builds
FP&A model builds on Anaplan cover the P&L, balance sheet and cash flow planning model, the driver-based assumptions that connect operational levers to financial outcomes, the scenario and version management structure that supports budget, forecast and actuals comparison, and the reporting layer that gives finance leadership the visibility they need. We work through the planning process with your FP&A team before building, because models built without process clarity reflect the confusion in their structure.
Sales performance management
Anaplan SPM programmes cover territory design, quota setting, incentive compensation calculation and pipeline forecasting. Waverton delivers SPM model builds that connect the commercial planning process to the compensation outcomes that sales teams depend on, with the auditability and transparency that compensation models require. We work alongside the sales operations and finance teams who own the process to design models they can operate and explain.
Supply chain planning
Anaplan supply chain models cover demand planning, inventory optimisation and supply network planning, connecting the commercial forecast to the procurement and production decisions it should drive. Waverton delivers supply chain model builds for manufacturing and distribution businesses, working through the data integration from ERP systems, the planning hierarchy that mirrors operational structure, and the exception management that focuses planner attention on the decisions that matter.
CoE support and model optimisation
Anaplan Centres of Excellence need support to develop their model-building capability and maintain the standards that keep models performant and governable as they grow. Waverton provides CoE support covering model reviews, optimisation of calculation-heavy models, training for model builders and the model management practices that prevent sprawl. For organisations with inherited models that have performance or maintenance problems, Waverton provides structured optimisation engagements.
How to engage
Anaplan model builds with defined scope and a clear planning process to model suit fixed bid delivery. Ongoing enhancement, CoE support and model maintenance run well as time and materials. Anaplan model builders and architects can be embedded into your FP&A or planning team. For organisations wanting ongoing model development and support managed by Waverton, the managed service model provides operational continuity.
