Post-Game Analysis

Pinpoint Why Value is Leaking in Your Enterprise Planning

Upload your planning data and get clear explanations of forecast accuracy, inventory, and service level. Understand why plans fail—and what it’s costing you—within weeks, not months.

Dashboards show what happened. They don't tell why.

the challenge

Answering what caused the gap is difficult when reasoning is scattered across decks, spreadsheets, and disconnected teams. By the time someone pieces it together, the next cycle is already underway. The result: ongoing value leakage. PGA changes that with a video replay for enterprise planning. What happened, why, and what to do next.

  • 4-6 weeks

    average time to manually identify root causes of forecast misses at enterprise scale.

PGA is an online post-game analysis capability designed to quickly uncover why performance deviated from plan, without complex system integration or long implementation cycles.

how it works

1— Upload your planning data

Item master, historical actuals, and plan snapshots, in whatever format you have.

2— Ask questions in plain language

Ask in plain language: 'Why did forecast accuracy drop in EMEA?' PGA investigates the underlying drivers.

3— Get root causes and next steps

PGA uncovers root causes and identifies where action is needed. First output in 2–4 weeks.

Questions.
Clear Answers.

PGA starts with a small, incremental dataset based on the KPI in scope. Users can provide the data in the format they already have available.
