Next FPA for workforce planning

Strategically plan your workforce

Relying on spreadsheets and outdated planning platforms can leave you unable to adapt to the dynamic nature of your business. Plus, you’ll have a workforce plan that’s out of sync with finance and corporate plans. That’s why we built Next FPA for workforce planning. Now you can model your optimal workforce, plan for any scenario, standardize plans across business units, and collaborate to develop workforce plans that integrate with your corporate plan.

Your workforce is probably your largest expense—and the piece of your organization that’s hardest to align with your business goals. With strategic workforce planning now part of the Next FPA Business Planning Cloud, you plan with virtually no limits on how you view or model workforce data.
