An organization in Indiana is seeking an experienced implementation partner to deploy cloud-based Anaplan Financial Planning software. The initiative aims to support comprehensive budgeting, planning, forecasting, reporting, and financial management processes for more than 400 users across multiple campuses, schools, and departments.

The selected partner will be responsible for establishing a scalable, secure, and efficient Anaplan solution tailored to the institution's financial calendar and accounting structure. Key tasks include developing a project implementation roadmap, designing configuration to meet budgetary needs, and executing a phased rollout. The vendor must configure system modules, provide integration documentation, ensure support readiness, and coordinate comprehensive testing, including user acceptance and data validation. Resolution of all identified defects prior to the production deployment is required, as well as ongoing optimization of financial planning templates based on user feedback.

Additionally, the partner will deliver training and documentation for end-users, facilitate knowledge transfer to staff, and structure a flexible project schedule to accommodate institutional demands. This project presents an opportunity for firms with expertise in cloud-based financial software implementation and large-scale user training.
