In November, we had the 2nd Shanghai FP&A Board. FP&A Analytical Transformation was the focus of our discussion. It is amazing to observe that FP&A Analytical trends and challenges are global.
Agenda
- Advanced Analytics for agile and integrated FP&A: key definitions and concepts.
- Case Studies from the field
- FP&A Analytical Transformation: Fine-tuning the FP&A Operating Model. Group work.
- Conclusions and recommendations.
The Shanghai Board debated on the stages of FP&A Analytical Transformation and how to move to the leading state. Everybody agreed that data quality is one of the biggest challenges as well as ways to bring big data in FP&A through key internal and external business drivers, flexible FP&A platform and adjusted collaborative processes.
