Forecasting, budgeting, and pipeline — as one workflow.

The client is a global telecom leader. Their Finance and Sales Operations teams ran revenue forecasting, monthly and quarterly forecast cycles, and annual budgeting as separate workflows in fragmented tooling. The ask: unify the lot into one cohesive system.

The constraint: do it inside the existing Microsoft / Oracle / PostgreSQL footprint, alongside the GAM and IFRS reporting that Finance was already running.

One platform, six workflows.

Runtime delivered the integrated tooling: forecasting and budgeting processes; GAM and IFRS reporting; reporting workflows on top of unified data; ETL for the source systems; big-data analytics for trend visibility; and a manual data-adjustment interface for the cases that don't fit the model.

The system uses baseline, backlog and pipeline information to strengthen forecast precision across Finance and Sales Operations.

Enterprise tooling that fits inside the existing stack.

The client's data and finance systems were already built on Microsoft, Oracle, and PostgreSQL. The brief wasn't to rip out — it was to plug in clean tooling on top. The stack reflects that constraint.

Ten years inside the same finance stack.

10yrs Embedded with Finance and Sales Operations on the same forecasting platform.

The engagement has run continuously since 2015, with the same core team. Forecast cycles are quieter; the platform has absorbed every regulation change and reorganisation the business has thrown at it.

Still embedded.

One Team Leader, six developers, ten years of domain knowledge that doesn't walk out the door at end of contract. Long engagements, not transactional handoffs.
