Making Planning More Usable, Adaptable and Visible

Is your organization recognizing value from its budgeting and planning process?

Budgeting is a bad word at most organizations. It calls to mind laborious, time-consuming data collection, gamesmanship, and worst of all -- a budget and plan that's sorely out-of-date when it finally becomes "effective." Budgeting methods of the past may have provided an acceptable means for gathering information and determining a go-forward strategy, but they're clearly outdated and don't provide the visibility and adaptability necessary for your organization to remain competitive and react quickly to changing conditions.

Join David Blansfield, editorial director of BPM Magazine and Business Finance Magazine, as he hosts a real-world case study presented by MariAnne Woehrle, Director of Technology and Information at CTAM on how using a dedicated budgeting and planning application has helped her company control the process and provide a single source of information for their CEO. Joining MariAnne will be Gregg Gracheck, Senior Product Manager for Microsoft® Forecaster, who will provide insight into how the latest release of Microsoft® Forecaster can make budgeting and planning more useable, adaptable, and visible.
