For efficient corporate planning and management, controllers and other decision-makers need transparent, reliable and meaningful information at all times, for example on cost trends, liquidity, sales and cash flow - in a clear and comprehensible form.

elKomPLAN is the flexible standard solution for integrated corporate planning with automatic creation of the planning objects balance sheet, income statement, liquidity and cash flow. Our planning software is used successfully by small and medium-sized companies as well as large corporations.

elKomPLAN is based on the OLAP database IBM Planning Analytics TM1 and uses Microsoft Excel as the front end. The IBM Planning Analytics TM1 Turbo Integrator accelerates data integration from existing systems and ensures short implementation times. The modular software thus enables integrated corporate planning in which planning objects can be created automatically in terms of accounting, liquidity, cash flow and profit and loss. This offers transparency and planning reliability, both for SMEs and large corporations. Another real advantage of this application is the accelerated data integration from existing data systems and the relatively short implementation times.

  • including predefined sub-plans for sales, personnel, costs and more
  • the subplans are easy to customize and expand
  • enables automatic periodization of the respective sub-plans
  • any number of highly individual sub-plans can be created and defined

  • enables drill-down for all financial items in the sub-plans
  • with Excel or optional web front end
  • individual reporting structures are clearly displayed and enable an objective target/actual comparison as well as time series
  • Excel packages are created and linked automatically
  • enables the automated import of data from existing database systems
  • includes a currency conversion function
  • multilingual and network-compatible application
  • supports individual extensions
  • no fixed number of planning versions, such as HR, Sim, Plan and more, or periodicity
