FP&A

Managing plans across multiple entities, currencies, and business units does not have to mean spreadsheet chaos. BrightAnalytics unifies your operational and financial data into one intuitive space for real-time forecasting and budgeting.

Plan, forecast, and control, all in one platform

Stop dealing with fragmented spreadsheets, late-night fixes and month-end budget surprises. With BrightAnalytics you can budget against real numbers, model what’s next, and catch problems before they show up in the board deck, giving your finance team one platform where nothing gets rebuilt twice.

Overview

Connect your actuals to your forecasts without manual data entry. BrightAnalytics gives you a single place to manage budgets, run scenario models, and track performance across all your business units.

Budget

Build budgets, forecasts, and rolling forecasts alongside your actuals so you never rely on static templates. Prefer starting in spreadsheets? You can easily upload budgets directly from Excel, where you likely built them, and start tracking performance instantly.

Scenario builder

Model what-if, base case, best case and worst case scenarios directly on your live data, and see the impact before you decide.

Virtual controller

With integrated AI, variances and anomalies get flagged automatically, so your team spends less time checking numbers and more time explaining them.

Controlling views

Analyze performance by customer, supplier, project, or cost unit, not just by GL account. Self-service dashboards run on the same live data as your reporting, so everyone works from one set of numbers.

Cash management

See every open invoice to and from customers and suppliers, updated daily. Follow up on overdue payments, see when payment terms expire, and track payment behaviour through Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and Days Payable Outstanding (DPO).
