Nowadays companies face highly competitive and rapidly changing environment, regulatory compliance requirements, and increased pressures from guarded investors. Success will be determined on how quickly companies can respond and adapt to changes in the market and still perform to a plan. Now, more than ever, the ability to dynamically and accurately plan, forecast, and report will separate the winners from the losers, and will help companies become "real-time enterprises".

Many organizations in the nineties turned to ERP systems to enhance their processes. However, despite improvements in back office operations, managerial processes such as: planning, budgeting, and forecasting, were left largely untouched. In addition, the traditional approach to budgeting relies on spreadsheets, focuses on costs rather than value, encourages political gaming, and is based on complex, sometimes unsupported assumptions. Now this approach has started to break down - taking longer, costing more, and becoming less connected to reality.

Removing delays and introducing flexibility in internal enterprise planning processes enables companies to efficiently and accurately plan, dynamically evaluate business opportunities, introduce targeted marketing campaigns, better control costs, and successfully manage relationships with various stakeholders. Strategic enterprise planning is a necessary stepping stone to becoming a "real-time enterprise".
