Unlock the Future of Integrated Planning with QueBIT's xP&A Roadmap

Gartner predicts that by 2025, 70% of new financial planning and analysis projects will evolve into extended planning and analysis (xP&A) initiatives. xP&A signifies a critical shift toward more collaborative, integrated, and agile planning and forecasting processes. For organizations aiming to enhance performance and resilience amidst constant change and disruption, xP&A is the way forward.

While cross-functional integrated planning—particularly between finance and operations—is not a new concept, xP&A is fueled by recent technological advancements. Innovations in artificial intelligence and machine learning, the decreasing cost of data capture and storage, the rise of cloud computing, and the growing sophistication of competitors are all driving forces behind this evolution.

The xP&A Roadmap Approach

Our methodology focuses on developing a well-defined plan by evaluating value-adding initiatives, prioritizing them using various metrics, and constructing a high-level business case.

Defining Value-Add Initiatives

Business capabilities are identified and grouped into specific initiatives. These value-add initiatives are categorized based on metrics like scope, key activities, deliverables, dependencies, and resource requirements. This structured approach helps visualize the roadmap to xP&A.

Drafting High-Level Business Cases

For each initiative, we develop a comprehensive business case that pinpoints critical cost and benefit drivers. This ensures that the most impactful initiatives are prioritized and justified.

Developing the Roadmap

The final step aligns the defined initiatives into a detailed, well-scheduled roadmap. This roadmap is flexible and can be iterated to meet the evolving needs of sponsors and stakeholders.
