I am looking for input on<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-performance-management-epm-consultants"> Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) Consultants</a> for financial planning and reporting modernisation.</p><ol>

<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/pricewaterhousecoopers-pwc/reviews"><strong>PwC</strong></a>: PwC's methodology and organised approach to SAP and D365 implementations are specifically credited for enabling complex financial system transformations that require both technology and process redesign. The integration of audit, tax, and advisory expertise means PwC can design EPM solutions that align with the organisation's reporting obligations rather than just its operational planning needs. </li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/kpmg/reviews"><strong>KPMG</strong></a>: The combination of financial consulting, advisory implementation, and ERP services means that KPMG can address the full financial planning modernisation scope — not just the platform layer but the process redesign and change management that make new planning systems stick.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/datavail/reviews"><strong>Datavail</strong></a>: Datavail's positioning specifically addresses financial planning modernisation at the data infrastructure level — eliminating silos, improving data quality, and building scalable foundations for analytics and reporting.

Was it a reduction in days to close, a reduction in manual reconciliation hours, improved forecast accuracy, or the ability to run more planning scenarios than was previously possible in Excel?</p>

&quot;Highest rated&quot; means something different for consulting firms than for software, because the review counts are tiny and heavily reference-managed. A firm often supplies its happiest reference clients to review it, so a boutique with eight glowing entries can outrank a Big 4 with forty mixed ones without being the safer delivery bet, just the better-curated one. On a services shortlist, the distribution and who wrote the reviews tells you more than the star average, which is built on too few and too-selected data points to lean on.
