What is The Anaplan Way?

The Anaplan Way is our project management methodology that has proven successful over hundreds of project implementations and across lines of business and industries. This is a methodology that ensures a successful deployment of the Anaplan platform, delivers transparency during each phase of an implementation to keep the project on track, and positions the platform for strong user adoption. The Anaplan Way is designed to be flexible and dynamic, allowing for the twists and turns that a project may face.
Many Anaplan customers do three to four releases of Anaplan within a year—each release building on the existing implementation while iterating additional bells and whistles along the way. When scoping out your Anaplan project, a best practice is to lay the foundation in the first phase and then use future phases to integrate more complex business requirements. This will help with user adoption as end users and model builders become more skilled with Anaplan and its capabilities.
