Rolling Forecasts

Build a plan that adapts as your business changes.

Rolling Forecasts

Plan Often and Accurately to Keep Up with Change

Annual plans start to go stale on day one, unable to account for ongoing market volatility and shifting trends. Static information puts your business at risk when you make decisions without adjusting for today’s new insights or reframing the periods ahead.

Relying on static, outdated assumptions?
Struggling to manage your data?
Siloed budgeting processes?

Planful uses rolling forecasts to help your business adapt to sudden changes while staying aligned with your strategic goals. Continually rolling planning periods keep your forecasts current and your business agile because you can adjust key drivers. Give your team insight into the impact of decisions over the next 12 months, not time-boxed into the current fiscal year.

“We’ve transformed from 2 forecasts per year, to quarterly forecasts, and now to monthly forecasts.”

Tim Zue

EVP & CFO at Boston Red Sox
