Planning & Modeling for Higher Education

 

As institutions evaluate the next decade with continuing declines in population growth, increased tuition discounting, shrinking endowments and the demands for accessibility, affordability and diversity, the role of CFOs becomes critical to take the mission and strategic plans of the institution and resource it with an eye on both the short and long-term goals for the coming years.  

And they are turning to Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) to support the office of Finance’s budgeting, planning and forecasting efforts.

Allitix steps in to assist in your FP&A / budgeting/ planning deployments to build the models you need with the variables and data points you desire.   You can learn more about Allitix role in supporting higher education’s deployment of Anaplan as a modeling tool with customizations built for you to easily support decision making at the cabinet level.
