Are you a future-thinking business leader who seeks a collaborative and agile planning process to keep pace in today’s fast-paced corporate environment? If yes, then the evolution of Integrated Business Planning (IBP) to extended Planning & Analysis (xP&A) could be just the steppingstone for you to create value and alignment in your planning process.
IBP to xP&A? Let us explain.
Before we dive into how you can learn tips to accelerate the journey of the evolution, let us describe what’s IBP and xP&A. As you may know, IBP is an S&OP-centric process that aligns supply chain functions with the overall business strategy. In comparison, xP&A is a modern approach to FP&A (Financial Planning & Analysis) that uses data-driven insights instead of legacy methods to provide more accurate and timely forecasts for decision-making. Overall, xP&A and IBP can provide in-depth S&OP planning angles to your aggregate business strategy by directly integrating information from each business unit with finance. However, xP&A is considered a more robust and finance-driven planning solution for an organisation than IBP. Therefore, although IBP can work in tandem with xP&A, finance can unlock more opportunities to create value by accelerating the journey from Integrated Business Planning to extended Planning & Analysis.
