FInancial Planning & Analysis for Consumer Packaged Goods May 23, 2012

The FP&A Summit for the Consumer Goods Industry brings the leadership and innovators from the industry together for a summit acclaimed for its insight into the forecasting and planning process.

Finance Execs in 2012 who are looking to developing a systematic approach to link strategic plans, budgets, and forecasts can't afford to miss this summit and hear how to generate granular analyses of profitability drivers, plan around capital needs and produce ROI analyses (e.g. for IT projects).

For many firms, the key is to become what’s called an “analytic competitor”— a business that is fast, flexible, and precise when it must reallocate resources in line with changing patterns of demand, cost, and opportunity. For the FP&A team, this requires the ability to access, collect, and analyze both financial data and forward-looking non-financial measures such as trends in customer demand or commodity prices.
