The problem

Planning silos cause data silos.

Legacy planning tools create fragmented data across platforms, requiring redundant ETL, integration, and reconciliation just to get a single view of the truth.

What Fabric Plan users say

Finance and BI leaders on planning natively in Microsoft Fabric.
Fabric Planning lets us tailor forecasting to each area of the business — top down, bottom up, driver-based, or assumption-based — without forcing everyone into the same methodology. By building on validated semantic models and capturing assumptions, commentary, and the story with the numbers, we shorten the development cycle, bring multiple perspectives together quickly, and gain deeper insight without the inefficiency of emails, meetings, and reconciliation.
Andrew Gundrum
Executive Director, Finance Data and Analytics, Merck
At Bosch Mobility, strategic planning starts with trusted data. Microsoft Fabric IQ Plan provides the scale and integration we need to connect complex market data across our business, creating the foundation for better decisions and future AI-driven insights.
Robert Finger
VP of Business Digitization, Bosch Mobility
For us, the biggest benefit of Fabric Planning is speed: it lets us turn the semantic models and trusted business logic we have already invested in into planning applications, rather than rebuilding that foundation in a separate planning platform. And because plans sit in the same Fabric context as actuals, they can also give Copilot and agents the forward-looking business context to reason not only about what happened, but about what we expect and plan to happen next.
