Non-Traditional Business Case: Deloitte Service As a part of our World Class Talent initiative, Deloitte has embarked on a program to improve how we fund and manage learning delivery. Since we deliver over 3 million learning hours to our personnel and clients, there is a significant need to evaluate the success of this investment. However, it had become a significant effort to prepare the plans every year and there was little to no analytic reporting available in this regard. It was apparent that a planning technology combined with some business process change was needed to improve the situation.

Approach We selected SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (v10) to better manage this process. It will be deployed in several phases over calendar year 2013. Macro Planning 1 year plan Micro Planning spread by period and refined Forecasting track actuals to plan and refine future plans Accrual Management record obligations not yet paid Extensive Reporting & Analytics What is unique about this effort is that we are not only planning program costs but also learning hours.

Approach We used a Microsoft SQL installation (with plans to move to the SAP HANA platform) for speed of delivery Our users access it via MS Excel Basic reporting development is within the EPM suite Analytics and mobile reporting are in design phase now.
