Forecasting Process
The Benefits

The Challenges
'Almost half of our time was spent re-casting...'
nVent struggled with spreadsheets to manage future revenue and demand for product.
Separating run rate and pipeline forecasts was a challenge.
The sales and project planning teams were spending up to 30-40% of their time re-casting project plans and numbers related to new deals and ongoing run rate business.
The Solution
revVana Plan & revVana Insights
revVana Plan was implemented to replace cumbersome spreadsheets and provide volume planning per project. The upcoming demand is used to forecast both revenue and demand of product.
revVana Insights was implemented to manage the analysis of both run rate and opportunity-based forecasts in one location.
