About Us

Adapt IT’s technical solutions, coupled with real-world experience and subject matter expertise, provide customers with strategic insights and recommendations that they are able to practically apply to their operations. This results in tangible results and improvements to the bottom line.

This is true of our Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) business, which delivers value across our clients’ businesses by focusing on business, financial and operational processes.

EPM is designed to help organisations link their strategies to their plans and execution. To support this, EPM includes the following management processes:

  • Budgeting, planning, forecasting and modelling
  • Consolidating results and closing the books on a periodic basis
  • Reporting results to internal and external stakeholders
  • Analysing performance vs. plan, prior years, across divisions or products, etc.

This provides clients with unique insights into understanding the drivers of their business on which their budgeting, planning and forecasting rests. These flow through the financial value chain into statutory and management consolidation requirements and are fully complemented by an integrated advanced analytics engine available 24/7 in the Cloud.

We are a primary licensed re-seller of solutions such as Board, IBM Cognos Controller and SAP™ Analytics Cloud in South Africa.
