Business Consulting FAQ

Are you launching an Anaplan project? Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions about our Business Consulting engagements: deliverables, MOA/MOE coordination, integration, testing, and user adoption.

What is a Business Consulting engagement and what deliverables can you expect?

A Business Consulting engagement oversees the project end to end: scoping, specifications, user stories, testing, and governance. Deliverables include functional models, test cases, and progress reporting.

At what stage should a Business Consulting firm be involved in an Anaplan project?

Ideally from the scoping phase. Business Consulting helps structure requirements, secure the design, and ensure business consistency before the build. When involved later, it remains key for testing, change management, and user adoption.

How do Business Owners, IT teams and the system integrator work together?

Business Consulting ensures coordination between MOA and MOE. It translates business requirements into specifications, challenges technical choices, and validates compliance during testing. The integrator executes the technical implementation.

How can UAT and Anaplan adoption be ensured across all functions?

Through a clear test plan, engaged key users, targeted training and in-app Lemon Learning guides. Beyond Plans measures post-go-live value and supports long-term adoption.

Which data and connectors should be planned (Finance, Supply, Sales/HR, Procurement)?

An Anaplan Data Hub centralizes data from ERP, BI, CRM, HRIS and procurement systems and feeds business planning models. This shared data foundation ensures consistency and simplifies updates.
