What needs
to work better?

A fixed scope. Visible progress.
One senior lead accountable for every build.

Pigment implementation

A new model.
A stronger foundation.

From architecture and data to planning logic, boards and a documented handover.

What should be ready before a build?

An agreed planning question, source-data samples you are authorised to share, a decision owner and the reporting calendar. A phased implementation is typically 6–12 weeks, with scope and timing agreed after discovery.

Phased implementation
Pigment model review & optimisation

A slower model.
A clearer way forward.

Find the calculation, structure and reconciliation issues. Leave with a prioritised fix list.

What does a health check include?

A focused review of one Pigment application: formula and dependency hotspots, naming and lineage, access assumptions and reconciliation controls. Expect prioritised findings and a walkthrough. Indicative timing is 1–2 weeks, depending on access and scope.

Model health check
Hands-on Pigment delivery

Your standards.
More hands-on capacity.

A defined workstream for your implementation team, with clear reviews and clean handoffs.

How does partner support start?

Agree a defined workstream, delivery standards, review points and working-hour overlap. Support can be scoped by phase or as a regular block of modelling capacity.

Common questions

Working with a
Pigment consultant.

What does a Pigment consultant do?

A Pigment consultant designs and builds planning models in Pigment: the dimensions, metrics and formulas, the boards planners work in, and the data flows from your ERP and HR systems. A good consultant also reviews existing models for accuracy and speed, and makes sure your team can own the model after go-live.

How long does a Pigment implementation take?

It depends on scope. A focused use case such as opex budgeting or headcount planning is far quicker than a connected FP&A model covering revenue, workforce, opex and the three statements, which is usually delivered in phases. Scope and timeline are agreed before work starts.

Do you only work with new Pigment customers?

No. Much of the work is with teams already on Pigment: speeding up slow models, cleaning up structure after a rushed first build, adding a new use case, or adding hands-on capacity to an in-house team or partner firm.

Can you help us move from Anaplan to Pigment?

Yes. Migrations are mapped concept by concept, rebuilt deliberately rather than copied, and run in parallel until every total reconciles before cutover. See the migration blueprint and Pigment vs Anaplan.

Which planning use cases do you cover?

Headcount and workforce planning, territory and quota planning, opex budgeting and the annual operating plan, three-statement and cash planning, and SaaS revenue and ARR forecasting.

04 / Start a conversation

Your next plan.
On solid footing.

A new build, a model that needs attention, or a partner workstream. Tell us where you are starting. A senior modeller reads every enquiry.

What happens next?

We review your note and reply within one working day with questions or times to talk. Scope and fees are agreed in writing before any work starts.
