Strategic partnerships Bedford Consulting is a leading Anaplan partner in EMEA with ongoing expansions and new client wins, presenting an opportunity to position complementary offerings or co-sell with current partners to expand reach into industries like healthcare, manufacturing, and retail.

Industrial verticals Recent wins with Medi-Globe, Rexel, DLF and SK biotek indicate strong traction in life sciences, distribution, and manufacturing sectors. Target similar segments that rely on integrated planning, consolidation, and reporting to improve agility.

Scale enablement With an emphasis on end-to-end Anaplan journeys and large enterprise deployments across multiple EMEA hubs, there is a sales opportunity to offer implementation acceleration services, training, and ongoing support packages to reduce time-to-value for complex programs.

Growth through acquisition Recent Mentat Technology acquisition strengthens UK leadership and capabilities. This signals potential for cross-sell IT services, analytics, and planning governance offerings to a broader UK customer base and to integrate acquired capabilities into new deals.

Analytics and data Tech stack and partner ecosystem (OneStream, Google Tag Manager, insights tools) combined with planning expertise create a runway to propose expanded analytics, data integration, and cloud-based planning enhancements to optimize forecast accuracy and performance visibility for mid-market to enterprise clients.
