Story
Panasonic grew financial planning faster than the local tools around it. From Japan, consumer discretionary teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. FP&A were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Intuit Mailchimp put planning and forecasting on Intuit. Intuit builds financial software for consumers and small and midsize businesses, including QuickBooks, TurboTax, Mailchimp, and Credit Karma. Panasonic keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so FP&A do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier planning and forecasting. Financial planning is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join FP&A without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
