12 New Preconfigured Applications: Time-to-Value Reinvented

In addition to its AI innovations, Anaplan has simultaneously launched 12 new out-of-the-box applications, bringing decades of expertise in enterprise planning and predictive, generative, and agent-based AI capabilities directly into key workflows. The stated goal: to drastically accelerate time-to-value for business teams, without requiring custom development.

These applications cover all major areas of enterprise planning:

• ​Consensus Margin Planning

• Software Spend Optimization

• Project Cost Planning

• Subscription Revenue Planning

• Profitability Analysis

• Commercial & Ventes

• Go-To-Market Capacity Planning

• Sales Forecasting, Territory & Quota Planning

• Segmentation & Scoring

• Supply Chain

• Demand Planning

• Statistical Forecasting

• Integrated Business Planning

• Trade Promotion Management

• Workforce

• Operational Workforce Planning

• Contact Center Planning

• Project Resource Planning

  
  

What sets these applications apart from traditional approaches is that they are continuously maintained and updated by Anaplan and its partners, with new features rolled out on an ongoing basis at no additional cost and without the need for a migration project. Your models evolve with the platform, not against it.

Anaplan Data Orchestrator: Clean Data as the Foundation

Underpinning these innovations, the Anaplan Data Orchestrator (ADO) strengthens the platform’s data foundation. This integration component connects Anaplan to ERP systems (SAP, Oracle), CRM systems (Salesforce), and cloud data warehouses (Snowflake) via a no-code interface, ensuring that planning models are based on fresh and consistent information.

In practical terms, ADO functions as an intelligent ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) tool: it collects, prepares, and routes data to business models in the right format, at the right time. And this is where an often-underestimated challenge lies: poorly prepared data results in a poorly calibrated model. “Garbage in, garbage out”, the golden rule of data, also applies to planning. This marks a major turning point for Anaplan. By integrating ADO into its ecosystem, the platform takes another step toward its ultimate goal: to become the single, comprehensive tool for the data value chain, from ERP output all the way to business intelligence, without any gaps, re-entry, or loss of consistency.

What all this changes concretely for your projects

These developments are not just product announcements; they are changing the situation on the ground for companies that are deploying or considering Anaplan:

• Faster implementations, controlled costs

  The use of AI agents and preconfigured applications significantly reduces implementation time and costs. What used to require several months of custom development can now start in a few weeks on proven bases.

• Strengthened governance at every level

  Complete traceability, dedicated application roles, accountability of all stakeholders: governance is no longer an obstacle to adoption; it is becoming its driver.

  
  

• A platform open to new users

  The natural language modeling capabilities, CoModeler in particular, open up Anaplan to business profiles that were previously excluded. Less dependence on IT, more autonomy for the Finance, HR, Supply Chain and Commercial teams.

What Kelerian retains

Each of these three developments: AI agents, preconfigured applications, and ADO answers a question that our clients have been asking us for years: how can we go faster without sacrificing quality or governance? Anaplan is now responding with a consistency and ambition that confirm its place as the undisputed leader in corporate planning.Our role at Kelerian remains the same as we have always held: to help you make the most of these innovations with the professional rigor and field experience that no AI agent can replace.
