Companies that use a rolling 13-week forecast are already among the better-prepared corporates. However, even this type of planning only protects against surprises if the data it contains is complete and accurate. Missing or incorrect amounts, as well as correct amounts assigned to the wrong value dates, can quickly lead to poor decisions with significant consequences.
For many companies, however, a forecast that is updated weekly still appears unattainable because the relevant information is “simply not available that frequently”. What finance directors often mean by this is that they have limited influence over the preceding processes. For example, they may be unable to require the sales department to provide more accurate figures or persuade senior management to communicate information about upcoming expenditure with sufficient lead time. Today, however, the lack of a suitable system can no longer be used as an excuse for inadequate planning.
