Case Study: F5 modernizes workforce planning in Power BI with Acterys

F5 turns Power BI into a two-way planning surface with Acterys in seconds

F5, a global technology company, faced the challenge of modernizing its legacy workforce planning platform, which had stopped evolving and was no longer supported by IT. They needed a solution that would integrate with their existing Microsoft Power BI and SQL Server environment without disrupting their established and effective planning processes, leading them to partner with Acterys.

Acterys provided a Microsoft-native planning solution that turned F5's read-only Power BI reports into a two-way planning surface. This allowed planners to enter data directly into Power BI and see the impact on salaries and variances within seconds. The implementation modernized their platform without changing their processes, and they have now completed three full annual planning cycles for the entire company P&L within the system.
