Get more from the Pigment setup you already have.

If you are already using Pigment and feel the business should be getting more from it, you are probably right.

The platform is there and the investment has been made, but planning can still feel heavier than it should. Cycles take longer, scenarios are harder to run, and too much still depends on manual work or knowledge sitting with a small number of people. At that point, the question is not whether the platform was the right choice, but whether the current setup and partner are really taking the business where it needs to go next.

Plan Assist was named Pigment Regional Partner of the Year (EMEA) 2026.

The team is made up of solution architects with real-world planning experience, so the focus stays on practical decisions and helping planning work properly day to day.

Plan Assist helps organisations get more from the setup they already have, improve adoption, make scenarios easier to trust, and create a clearer plan for what comes next.

If that sounds familiar, you are in the right place.

Who this is for?

This page is for organisations already using Pigment that want to:

  • Get more from the setup they already have
  • Streamline and automate the way planning runs across the business
  • Make scenario planning easier to run and easier to trust
  • Create a clearer route into adoption and ownership

When planning starts to feel harder than it should

Usually, it is not one big problem, but built-up of smaller elements that start to slow the process down.

It tends to show up in familiar ways:

  • Scenarios can be built, but they take too long and too much effort
  • Too much knowledge sits with a small number of people
  • Data and integrations work, until confidence really matters
  • Stakeholders still want reassurance before they trust the numbers
  • The wider business is not using the platform with the confidence Finance expected

None of that means you need to start again. More often, it means the business has moved on, the model has grown with it, and the way planning is being run has not quite kept pace.

How teams usually end up here

There is usually pressure to move quickly, get something live and show value early. That trade-off is not always obvious at the start. It only becomes clear later, once the business moves on, the setup grows, and the original decisions start to get tested.

That is usually when teams start looking for a clearer way forward. For many, that starts with Phase 0.

Over four weeks, Plan Assist helps define requirements, priority use cases, and the next stage through an on-site workshop and a Business Requirements Document.

What Phase Zero gives you

  • Clarity on planning requirements, priority use cases, and what the business needs next
  • A focused four-week process with stakeholder preparation and an on-site requirements workshop
  • A Business Requirements Document to guide the next stage with more confidence
  • A stronger basis for technology decisions, proof of concept, and project preparation
  • A cleaner route forward before committing to more build or implementation work

Pigment Partner FAQs

Who is this for?

This is mainly for organisations already using Pigment that want to get more from the platform, improve the way planning runs, or explore whether a different partner would better support the next stage.

Do we need to rebuild everything?

Usually not. Most teams need a clearer structure, better supporting documentation, and a more useful roadmap. Very few need to start again from scratch.

Can Plan Assist take over from an existing Pigment partner?

Yes. That is a common situation. The focus is usually on stabilising what is there, clarifying
priorities, and improving the areas creating the most friction.

What happens in Phase 0?

Stakeholders are aligned, requirements are properly worked through, and a Business Requirements Document is produced so the next phase is based on clear decisions rather than
assumptions.

How long does it take to see value?

Phase 0 creates clarity quite quickly. The wider value comes from future delivery being cleaner,
faster, and more focused because the business is working from a shared view of what matters.

Can Plan Assist help us make better use of new platform capability as it becomes available?

Yes. Part of the value in a better roadmap is being able to adopt useful new capability in a
controlled way, rather than adding more complexity to an already stretched process.

If you are looking for a better way to run planning, and a better way to move your current setup forward, you are in the right place.

This is usually the stage where a few questions start to come into focus.

Plan Assist works with organisations already live on Pigment that want to get more value from the investment they have made, whether that means improving adoption, making scenario planning easier to run, or creating a clearer route into the next stage.
