As manager of group budgeting and forecasting for Suncorp, John Herrmann had a goal for the Australian financial services company to get its multiple planning systems on a single platform. "That was my one vision," he says.

Suncorp had been involved in several mergers and acquisitions, and so, with multiple operations, the word from top management was to conduct more strategic planning. "Because of all the mergers, we were consumed by transformation mode," says Herrmann.

Suncorp offers customers consumer and business banking, wealth management, life insurance, and property/casualty insurance. There are multiple financial service products, and they all are distributed through the one Suncorp network.
