Modeling and Implementation Support
If you need help with a modeling problem, or you simply want someone else to build your model so you can focus on the assumptions and analysis, Alight and our certified partners provide fee-based consulting services.
All consultants are planning and modeling gurus who know Alight Planning in-depth and have been in the trenches building financial plans for large and small companies.
Modeling support can be as simple as you sending a model file to one of our consultants with a description of the problem. The consultant creates an example solution with your plan file and then “hands off” the solution to you live over the internet.
Alight and its consulting partners also do full systems integration projects. Deliverables for expanded projects typically include:
- Scoping the project and developing a project plan
- Building a planning model including setting up structures, linking and calculations
- Building an actuals model including scoping sources, mapping, linking and calculations
- Setting up import and maintenance procedures
- Setting up reports: budget interfaces, rolling forecasts, plan comparisons and key measures
- Admin and user training
Hourly support is also available for simpler modeling questions.
For Alight Planning customers, consulting support is also available to help set up multiple user privileges and processes.
The billing rate for Alight’s in-house consultants is $200 per hour. Alight’s certified consultants set their own rates.
