Further information

The use of predictive algorithms and machine learning (ML) in corporate planning, known as predictive planning and forecasting, has been an important development in finance and controlling over recent years. Its aims are to improve planning and forecasting and to increase automation in order to reduce the workload of planners.

While software vendors are massively expanding their functionality in this area, utilization in user companies is only increasing slowly. But why is that?

Our BARC study examines the nature and current level of use of predictive planning and forecasting and draws comparisons with the results of past BARC studies. Does predictive planning and forecasting take corporate planning to the next level in practice and provide the benefits that companies expect? Are the enthusiastic promises of vendors exaggerated? How widely is predictive planning actually used?

Here is some guidance:

  • If your company does not offer software consulting or solutions, and the use of one or more software solutions (e.g., BI or ECM solutions) is either part of your everyday work or in the pipeline, then please select the option "work for a software user company" regardless of your industry sector or company size.
  • Do you work for a company that offers software solutions (e.g., BI or ECM solutions)? Then please select "work for a software provider".
  • If your company offers IT/software consulting or services, then "work for an IT service provider/consulting firm" is the right choice.
  • Do you work or study in an educational institution such as a university or a research institute? Then choose "work/study in an educational institution".

  2. Have you unsubscribed from all BARC mailings in the past? Check this by entering your email address in the form. If the text "You are currently unsubscribed from receiving emails" appears below your email address, click on it. We will then send you an automated email.

  3. Are BARC’s email sending domains blocked in your company? This could be the case if your colleagues do not receive BARC mailings either. Please ask your IT/email team to add BARC's email sending domain to their allowlist. This will enable you to receive emails from BARC. That wasn't the problem either? Then off to step 4.
