Integrated Business Planning
Today’s market requires businesses to plan more rapidly and assess multiple scenarios at once. We help connect leading technologies and bespoke methodologies through integrated business planning to break down silos and unlock new routes to savings and growth.
What EY can do for you
Business, markets, expectations and technology have all changed. These monumental shifts necessitate a new framework for business planning, one that’s more integrated than ever before.
Integrated business planning is about connecting what finance and the business are doing, so the organization can react more quickly to any number of external changes, shocks or disruptions. That collaborative approach accelerates speed to impact.
