FP&A

FP&A planning that keeps every number connected

Bring budgeting, forecasting, revenue and cost planning into one connected model on Pigment. Targets, forecasts and allocations stay distinct but linked, so your finance team spends less time reconciling spreadsheets and more time deciding what to do next.

Budgeting and forecasting

A budget has three separate jobs to do: setting the target, predicting what will actually happen, and giving each budget owner something usable to work with. We build these as related but distinct models, driven by the metrics that reflect how your business runs, such as conversion, volume and price, with cash and balance sheet impact recalculating automatically as assumptions change.

  • Drivers built around your operations, with full profit and loss and cash impact recalculating as they change
  • Forecast horizons matched to your planning rhythm, from rolling views to tighter monthly cycles
  • Budget reallocation designed in from the start, so moving budget between owners is a tracked decision, not an off-system negotiation

Management reporting

When a driver is measurable, a movement in performance can be traced straight back to what caused it. We build reporting that refreshes from the live model, so your team sees what changed and why, rather than rebuilding a pack around static numbers every month.

  • Reports that update automatically from the live model, not from a rebuilt spreadsheet
  • Drill-through from any figure to the department, entity or line behind it
  • Role-based views, from board-level KPIs to cost centre detail, built on the same underlying data

Revenue planning

Finance builds revenue from strategy and growth targets. Commercial teams build it from customers and pipeline. Both are valid, and they usually land on different numbers. We connect both views in one model, so any gap between them becomes a short, specific list to discuss, not a debate settled by whoever argues hardest.

  • Revenue structured by product, segment, channel and geography, matching how your teams already think about growth
  • Revenue drivers such as retention, renewal, price and new business modelled separately, so performance can be properly attributed
  • A reconciliation view showing exactly where top-down and bottom-up plans agree, and where they don’t

AI in your FP&A plan

Once your drivers are connected to real data, Pigment’s AI tools can explain a variance rather than simply report it. Business leaders can ask questions of the live model in plain language, and your team can connect the AI tools it already uses through MCP integrations.

Ranked driver analysis: Breaks a variance down and highlights drivers

Plain-language queries: Ask the live model questions

Connected through MCP: Bring AI tools into the platform

How we deliver FP&A

We build in phases, starting with the process causing the most friction, and prove the model against your own numbers before expanding further. Your team is trained as we go, so you’re running the model well before we’re finished, rather than waiting on us for every change.

Pigment is trusted by some of the largest organisations, globally

“When you have an EPM system that’s not trusted by the organization, then there is low engagement, which means low quality inputs, and low quality outputs. With Pigment, we managed to gain trust pretty fast, because data is readily available, it’s user friendly, and you see the results fast. We have 800 metrics already in our model, which will continue to grow” “With Pigment, we’ve already seen significant improvements. Tasks that used to take days are now completed in minutes. This has boosted morale within the team, as they feel they now have tools that allow them to showcase their capabilities”
