Advisory

Rescue and rebuild for underperforming models.

Our team audits and rebuilds Workday Adaptive Planning models that are slow, unreliable, or no longer trusted by finance — identifying root architecture issues and fixing them properly.

What our team delivers
End-to-end model architecture audit
Calculation performance and speed tuning
Formula logic review and rebuild
Version management restructure
Close cycle time reduction
Data integrity and actuals validation
Model documentation and governance uplift

“Many organisations come to us 12 to 18 months after a failed or underdelivered implementation. The model exists. But finance works around it in spreadsheets. Close cycles take too long. Nobody trusts the numbers. Our team fixes the root architecture — not just the symptoms.”

Our approach

A Workday Adaptive Planning model that finance does not trust is worse than no model at all. It creates false confidence while the real work happens in spreadsheets. Our architects start every optimization engagement by understanding why trust broke down — and what needs to change to restore it.

Performance issues are often a symptom of poor dimension design or inefficient formula architecture. Before touching calculation logic, our team maps the full model structure, identifies where processing time is concentrated, and designs a rebuild approach that addresses root causes.

Version management is one of the most common failure points in Workday Adaptive Planning implementations. When versions are poorly designed, rolling forecasts become manual nightmares and scenario comparison breaks down. Our team rebuilds version architectures that support the actual planning cycle.

Every optimization engagement concludes with full documentation of what was changed, why it was changed, and how finance should maintain it going forward. We do not hand back a better model and leave — we make sure your team understands it and can own it.
