Silberline will replace their existing spreadsheets driven sales and budget planning process with Outperform Planning. The current spreadsheet based process is time consuming and error prone due to the collaboration required amongst the different personnel based around the world. Which also lead to fewer update cycles than what the business desired. With Outperform Planning, we will have a solution to look forward, measure and adjust in a much shorter timeframe; which results in the rest of the organization reacting swiftly to the needs of the marketplace. The implementation timeline is set to be fairly aggressive so as to have it in time for the 2015 budgeting process to take advantage of the intuitive and collaborative environment of Outperform Planning solution. We are very excited to work with Silberline and welcome them as a customer. The focus will be on the Sales in S&OP.
