Choose the right perspective
If you are deciding whether to bring Anaplan in-house, start with the people who built or lead a center of excellence. For hands-on model design or performance questions, pick a model builder or architect whose note describes specific models or user counts. For planning beyond FP&A, such as commercial or asset management models, look for rows that name those areas.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How is your Anaplan center of excellence staffed and split between internal model builders and partners, and what made you change that mix?
- 02How do you structure the data hub and model architecture to keep performance acceptable as users and models grow?
- 03What governance do you use for model changes, testing and releases, and how do you handle controls such as SOX?
