Financial Planning & Analysis
FP&A (Financial Planning & Analysis) is an important function within an organization. It comprises the end-to-end processes of Strategic Planning, Budgeting & Forecasting, combined with the downstream rigor of Management Information Analysis and Reporting.
These activities should not be limited to the activities of ‘finance’. Delivering value to the business requires participation in operational areas of the business in order to ensure the inclusion of both financial and non-financial measures of performance. Together, these form the Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) in the upward reporting of business performance.
