AI-infused planning & analytics for better decision making

Traditional methods of planning just aren’t robust enough and often restrain you to a single spreadsheet. It’s time to rethink your planning models, make the most of your data and be agile when you need it most.

What if we told you Fusion5 could pair you up with your own data scientist to help you save time, mine your powerful data and use it to make those all-important decisions with ease? It’s time you met IBM Planning Analytics with Watson.

Whether you need real-time data at your fingertips, want to make the most of an accurate forecast or need to harness the power of predictive modelling to identify new opportunities for your business, Fusion5 and IBM are ready to power up your financial and operational expertise for you.

 

Move Away from Workplace Data Silos

Unify your data across departments to improve visibility, collaboration, and speed of decision-making—all in one integrated platform.

Automate Complex Modelling and ‘What If’ Scenarios

Quickly build and test multiple planning scenarios with automation that helps you plan smarter, faster, and with greater confidence.

Identify Operational Problems Before They Happen

Use predictive analytics to flag risks and inefficiencies early, so you can act before they impact your business.

Stay Ahead of the Game with Watson in Your Corner

Leverage AI-driven insights from IBM Watson to guide smarter, more proactive decisions across your entire organisation.

How can Corporate Performance Management software de-risk your planning & reporting?

Plan for anything. Be ready for everything.

You face challenges in your business every day — whether that be collaborating on an accurate forecast, nailing your budget, building confidence in your internal processes or even workshopping 'what if' scenarios and predictive modelling to uncover new opportunities. Data and reporting shouldn’t just happen after the fact. In fact, using data as a utility right from the beginning of your planning stages can help you uncover new insights, back up your gut feeling with hard facts and empower you to drive better decision making in both your financial and operational strategies.

IBM Planning Analytics with Watson specialises in complex modelling and combines the power of an integrated and automated planning and analytics solution with mature AI so you can start working smarter, not harder, to future-proof your business and grasp that next opportunity. 

Ever wished you could look into your crystal ball and see what the future of your business had in store? Well, Watson's AI is the next best thing! 

Watson is one of the world's most mature AI systems and with the click of a button you'll be able to ditch that crystal ball for more robust and data-driven insights than ever before. By integrating real-time data mining with automated probability equations and AI, you'll be blown away by how easy and accurate your predictive modelling and forecasts can be. Pair this with automation and advanced data visualisation tools and you'll be able to pinpoint cost savers & operational problems before they happen!
