PwC Canada and Workday Adaptive Planning

Modern enterprise planning, consolidation and reporting

Almost 40% of CEOs believe their organization won’t be viable in a decade if it stays on its current path, according to our 27th Annual Global CEO Survey. To mitigate this, CEOs must reinvent business models and find new ways to stay competitive.

Our alliance with Workday brings together the trusted combination of Workday’s flexible technology with our outcome-focused business solutions, helping Canadian organizations take a human-led, technology-powered approach to complex business planning. With built-in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), Workday Adaptive Planning empowers your organization to uncover opportunities for disruption, helping you engage your teams in not only accelerating change, but sustaining it.

An integrated approach to fit your organization’s needs

Our approach features integrated business planning, analytics and performance reporting. This enables you to optimize budget allocation, accurately estimate future earnings and build a strategy-driven roadmap for your business planning, which includes end-to-end testing, training and change management, and post-implementation process improvements.

Our community of solvers applies an enterprise performance management lens to organizational planning and helps you align business strategy with business execution.
