CHALLENGES IN PLANNING AND BUDGETING

  • Lack of a system that allows the economic-financial planning cycle to be carried out. 

  • Significant manual human effort, generally in excel spreadsheet administration, which increases the possibility of errors. 

  • Little capacity to manage “macro variables”. 

  • Multiple information sources that serve as the base for monitoring management indicators. But of complex extraction. 

  • Non-unified database, where the information is consolidated for analysis and management reports. 


Enterprise Planning Processes

Strategic Planning

It is a process of defining the company’s business strategy and making decisions on the allocation of resources to pursue the optimal strategy.

Financial Planning

Key planning areas include workforce planning, expense planning, cost, and profit-center planning.

Operations Planning

It defines the actions and key operating targets that enable companies to attain their strategic goals and objectives and is governed by the sales and operations planning process.

Other Planning Process

There are also specialized planning processes - sales, marketing, and promotions planning or trade planning. These important planning processes impact all three categories of planning (strategic, financial, and operations).
