The Digital Central European FP&A Board: Why Driver Based Planning Matters for FP&A
The Digital Central European FP&A Board is proudly sponsored by:
Uncertainty can take many forms. It can manifest in a natural disaster, the merger or acquisition of a competitor, geopolitical changes, or a global pandemic.
The current Covid-19 crisis has challenged the forecasting models used, especially when it comes to predicting the evolution of a company’s business in a highly uncertain environment. Improving performance is a top priority for many organisations, but this requires well-studied management strategies.
Driver-based planning models enable companies to better understand the impact of variances in key business and value drivers on financial and operational KPIs. These models focus specifically on the drivers that have the greatest impact on business evolution.
