Prudential to Streamline Its Sales Bonus Process with Anaplan
Prudential UK and Europe selects Anaplan to improve bonus payment, forecasting processes.
London, United Kingdom, February 27, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Prudential, a leading UK pensions provider, has selected Anaplan's integrated business modeling and planning platform for sales, operations and finance to underpin improvements to its bonus modeling process. Anaplan’s real-time modeling and calculation capabilities will enable Prudential to significantly shorten the end-to-end process for bonus calculation and payment across its UK Intermediary Channel. Prudential is implementing an uncluttered, streamlined system that will be the backbone of the bonus process.
“By switching to Anaplan’s platform, which allows us to combine flexibility with automation, we will be able to streamline the process of bonus calculations for our account managers,” said Deirdre Flood, Commercial Finance Director. “We will also be able to improve our process and output analytics.”
Prudential’s primary business challenges are to improve the efficiency of the calculation of quarterly sales bonuses through greater automation, but without loss of flexibility, to assist the bonus planning process, and to improve analytics. They turned to Anaplan’s cloud-based platform, built on a patented, in-memory big data platform (HyperBlock™), to speed up the end-to-end process, and quickly calculate and produce outputs with minimum process activity.
“Anaplan is delighted to support Prudential with this important requirement, and we believe that organizations across the UK will look to them as a guiding example for ensuring compliance,” said Anaplan CEO Fred Laluyaux. “In doing so, we are building upon our wide-reaching strength in managing sales performance to create a powerful proposition for Prudential.”
