Global Anaplan Implementation Network (GAIN) launch brings specialized Connected Planning expertise to global organizations

Leading Anaplan specialists unite to deliver deep technical expertise and local market knowledge at global scale

PARIS, MINNEAPOLIS, LONDON, February 10, 2025 – Today marks the launch of the Global Anaplan Implementation Network (GAIN), an alliance of specialized Anaplan consulting firms designed to provide organizations with seamless access to deep Connected Planning expertise across all their operational territories. The alliance brings together dedicated Anaplan specialists – Atkan, Fidenda, Planingo, Twelve Consulting, VennCubed, and Zooss Consulting – creating a network that spans Europe, North America, Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Australasia.

For global enterprises implementing Connected Planning solutions to connect critical business functions like Finance, Supply Chain, Sales, and HR, GAIN represents a new model for accessing specialized expertise. By breaking down silos between departments and enabling real-time collaboration on forecasting, planning, and decision-making, organizations can significantly improve operational efficiency and agility through adopting the Anaplan platform. The alliance combines the focused, technical depth of specialist firms with extensive geographical reach, enabling multinational organizations to work with dedicated Anaplan experts who understand both local market dynamics and global implementation requirements.

"Global organizations implementing Anaplan increasingly need seamless access to specialized expertise across all their operational territories," said Tristan Colgate, Founder of Fidenda. "GAIN provides exactly that – the focused technical knowledge and implementation experience of dedicated Anaplan specialists, combined with the global reach traditionally associated with large consulting firms."

The alliance's founding partners bring complementary geographical coverage and sector expertise. Fidenda, headquartered in the UK and Netherlands, serves Northern Europe. Atkan, based in France and Switzerland, covers Southern Europe and North Africa. Twelve Consulting, with offices across the United States and Canada, serves North America with extensive experience across multiple industries.?

"What sets GAIN apart is our ability to combine local market understanding with deep Anaplan expertise," said Cédric Sa?ed, CEO of Atkan. "Each partner brings proven implementation experience in their respective markets, allowing us to deliver consistent, high-quality services across borders while maintaining the specialized focus that our clients value."

The alliance extends its reach through associate partners Zooss Consulting covering Australia and Brazil, VennCubed in South Africa, and Planingo covering the Middle East, Türkiye, and the Caspian region, ensuring comprehensive support for organizations operating across Asia-Pacific, African, South American and Middle Eastern markets.

?"GAIN represents a new model for global Anaplan implementations," said Josh King, CEO of Twelve Consulting. "Our alliance structure ensures that clients benefit from consistent methodologies and shared best practices while working with partners who deeply understand their local business context and requirements."

The formation of GAIN comes at a time when organizations seek alternatives to traditional consulting firms for their Anaplan implementations, preferring specialists who focus exclusively on Anaplan Connected Planning solutions.

GAIN partners will collaborate on global implementations, share technical resources and best practices, and jointly develop innovative solutions for complex planning challenges. The alliance's structure ensures consistent service delivery while maintaining the independence and specialized focus of each partner firm.
