"Our Partnership with Graphyte on the implementation and support of our IBM Planning Analytics environment at Blackmores has been great. Over the past 2 years, we have invested in a range of improvements to our existing financial models to make them leaner and more nimble to our analysis needs.  At the same time with Graphite’s support, we have also enhanced the robustness of the change control process in PA.  The Graphyte team’s ability to design and deploy new models and support our existing models was impressive. The team is extremely responsive, ensuring critical issues are dealt with immediately and non-critical issues are resolved within a reasonable timeframe.

IBM Planning Analytics has been a core part of our finance teams across Blackmores Group and the recent enhancements improve our ability to centralise master data (using their Rapid Development Framework) and start a move towards more common analysis views and datasets to the cloud.  This will enable us to streamline complex processes and improve granularity and visibility of data in the platform. Deeper integration with our cloud data warehouse has also streamlined data usage for the finance and commercial community.

Graphyte’s expertise, commitment to excellence, and hands-on support throughout this period has ensured a smooth implementation. Thanks to their efforts, we are on the way to leveraging the full potential of IBM Planning Analytics to drive smarter, faster decision-making. 

Graphyte have been transparent in time spent on activities executed leading to a transparent billing process, aligned to the contractual terms agreed.  There are few significant bill surprises when working with them.

We recommend Graphyte to organizations seeking innovative, pragmatic solutions for complex planning, reporting and analysis needs."
