Frequently Asked Questions

Anaplan is a cloud-based planning platform designed to connect finance, supply chain, sales, HR, and operations within a single collaborative environment. It enables organisations to simulate scenarios, anticipate outcomes, and drive strategic decisions in real time using reliable, shared data.

Applications are preconfigured models built on market best practices. They address specific needs—financial planning, S&OP, workforce planning, demand forecasting, and more—and serve as a foundation to accelerate deployment. Beyond Plans adapts these Applications to your business context so they become fully operational solutions.

Not necessarily. We support both organisations discovering the platform and those looking to enhance existing models. Anaplan’s modular approach makes it possible to start with a single functional area and gradually extend coverage over time.

Through our exclusive partnership with Lemon Learning, we embed in-app guidance and training directly into Anaplan. Users discover features step by step, in their working environment, without relying on heavy classroom-style training sessions.

We don’t just configure models. Our mission is to transform a standard application into a living, business-driven tool that is useful and widely adopted. We work in a tailored way, with a strong focus on co-construction, continuous adoption, and knowledge transfer.

We combine rigour with pragmatism: business scoping, rapid MVP delivery, short iterations, and progressive go-live. Each project is designed to deliver tangible value within the first few weeks, while ensuring long-term robustness.

Yes. We provide ongoing support after go-live, including enhancements, adjustments, and support for increasing internal autonomy. Some clients also choose our evolving managed services offering to maintain and enrich their models over time.

Yes. The platform offers native connectors (SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, Workday, etc.) as well as REST APIs to facilitate data integration. Beyond Plans configures these data flows to ensure consistency between source systems and Anaplan.

Depending on scope complexity, initial functional versions can be deployed within a few weeks. Anaplan Applications provide a standard framework that we tailor without extending timelines.

The most frequent use cases include integrated financial planning (IFP), demand and production planning, workforce planning, sales segmentation and scoring, and Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP).

Beyond Plans supports organisations across all industries where planning is a strategic lever: banking and insurance, manufacturing, luxury, retail, real estate, consulting and services, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, transport, and logistics.

Yes. We are an official Anaplan partner and the exclusive Lemon Learning partner for user adoption. We also support Team for the Planet as part of our environmental commitment.

Our mission is clear: to turn our clients’ performance ambitions into measurable impact, in line with our signature From Ambition to Impact. This translates into faster, more aligned, and more intelligent projects.
