We help organisations unlock the true value of their planning platforms. From CoE design to full Anaplan delivery — advisory that transfers knowledge, not dependency.
The Overview Effect is what astronauts describe when they see Earth from space for the first time — a sudden, irreversible clarity. The systems, the borders, the complexity below — all of it visible at once.
"You see the planet as a whole, and it changes your relationship with it permanently."
— The astronaut's cognitive shift, 1987That is how we approach every engagement. Before recommending anything, we understand the full landscape — the data, the processes, the people, and the politics. We work from the overview down. Only then do we go into the details that matter.
Our work reaches across functions — wherever planning inefficiency creates cost, delay, or strategic blindness.
Whether you need strategic guidance on your CoE or a senior partner to drive an Anaplan programme — we bring the same depth and the same commitment to capability transfer.
Most CoEs are built around one person's knowledge. When demand increases, that person becomes the bottleneck. When they leave, the organisation is exposed. We design operating models that hold up under pressure — structurally, not heroically.
A project is not finished when it goes live. It is finished when your organisation can run it, change it, and grow it — without calling the people who built it. That is the standard we hold every engagement to.
What makes our delivery different
You work with the person who has delivered these transformations — not a junior team with a senior name on the proposal. Knowledge transfer, documentation, and internal enablement are built into every engagement, not added on at the end.
Our three-step approach
Engagement scope is custom-quoted based on complexity, duration, and the delivery network required. Typically ranges from €20,000 for targeted interventions to €120,000+ for full programme delivery.
Every engagement is designed to end with your team more capable than when we arrived.
"A great CoE exists within an organisation that understands the value of what they're building — resources it properly, and has leadership that can read demand and prepare ahead of it."
