Testimonials
“In my experience, the product is 50% of the battle and the other 50% is the implementation itself because you don’t get the full value out of the product if you don’t have an implementation that unlocks that value.
QMetrix has been fantastic. They took time to understand the intricacies of the business and approached the project with a resolution-type mindset to make it work.”
Ben Challis
Head of Planning & Business Improvement
“QMetrix has excellent knowledge of Workday Adaptive Planning. We see them as extra support and their consultants provide add-on value to what we already know.
They always demonstrate knowledge on the latest product releases and features and know how to use them best. It really does help us adhere to best practice and keep the models clean. This means it doesn’t get complicated and remains easy to use.
Through working with QMetrix, our knowledge of Workday Adaptive Planning has been built up. This means we are not completely reliant on QMetrix, and have become even more self-sufficient in our use of the system.”
Robert Derman
Chief Financial Officer
Red Energy, implemented Workday Adaptive Planning with QMetrix, and won the Powering Innovation Award from Workday for their Cost to Acquire and Cost to Serve model. The model calculates and allocates all operating costs into these two key metrics across multiple dimensions including segment, state, brand etc. to provide deeper insight into customer profitability and operational efficiency.
By leveraging Adaptive Planning, Red Energy could streamline and automate the labour intensive allocation process, significantly improving the integrity and transparency of the underlying calculations. As a result, they now report faster while reducing manual effort and the risks associated with it, allowing the finance team to spend more time on the analysis with the business.
