Elevating FP&A: Navigating the future with Intelligent Finance
Jul 31, 2025 · Authored by Christine Trunnell
Finance teams are at a critical inflection point. Faced with economic volatility, rising inflation and increasing demands for agility, CFOs must move beyond traditional month-end cycles and lead at speed. Additionally, the finance function should evolve into a strategic partner, guiding performance across the enterprise. To do this, enterprises must embrace Intelligent Finance, a unified, data-driven approach that empowers teams to forecast on demand, align operational and financial plans and drive value across the organization.
Despite the urgency, many finance teams remain constrained by disjointed legacy systems that are difficult to scale, manual, time-consuming processes that hinder agility and disconnected operational and financial data.
OneStream’s Intelligent Finance platform is purpose-built to unify and elevate Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) across the enterprise. It enables finance teams to empower the organization with financial and operational insights from the same data to support faster and more informed decision-making, all in one single, unified platform.
