“We’re teaming with Anaplan to help business leaders integrate disparate planning functions and activities across the organization,” said Jonathan Eaton, Sourcing & Supply Chain Management principal at Grant Thornton. “This opens the door to streamlined, consensus-driven decision making and enhanced ‘what-if’ scenario planning across departments, including sales and marketing, operations, supply chain management and workforce planning.”

According to Eaton, the move is coming at a critical moment for America’s beleaguered businesses: “This year’s historic disruptions have elevated the need to proactively plan for and mitigate risks, to pivot strategies and drive business continuity. The new reality is that relying on fragmented plans, driven by disconnected processes, will no longer cut it. Anaplan’s offerings create more efficient processes that establish a unified, single source of truth for demand, sales and operations planning.”
