Case Study: INTO achieves precise forecasting and unified financial planning with Workday Adaptive Planning

INTO Adds Precision to Forecasting and Modelling Capabilities

INTO University Partnerships, a Brighton-based global education partner that connects prestigious universities with international students, faced a fast-changing, complex landscape. Its finance team had to verify and integrate 60–70 regional, multi-currency spreadsheets to get a complete view of the business, making forecasting and modelling slow, error-prone and ill-equipped to handle shocks like Brexit. INTO needed a modern FP&A solution to improve efficiency, accuracy and scenario planning.

Working with Clear Plan, INTO implemented Workday Adaptive Planning to consolidate data into a single source of truth, remove version-control issues, and deliver real-time dashboards and advanced modelling for scenarios such as Brexit and currency shifts. The platform now supports about 80 users (half in non-financial roles), boosting accountability, collaboration and productivity, turning finance into a strategic business partner and enabling plans for five-year cashflow modelling and rolling forecasts.
