1. Vistage Worldwide – Prophix story
Situation: Introduced to Prophix via our partner, FMT Consultants.
Company background: Vistage International has global affiliates in 16 countries. Their Executive Leadership Program members meet in small peer advisory groups every month under the same guiding principles—to help one another become better leaders, make better decisions and achieve better results.

ERP: Microsoft Dynamics GP.
Business issue: This is a replacement solution for Microsoft Forecaster. The initial pain points revolved around budgeting, planning, and reporting.
Prophix solution: FMT had a strong (10yrs) existing relationships. They worked with Vistage to identify Prophix as a replacement solution for FRX by highlighting successful Prophix implementations in similar situations. The evaluation included a series of proposed model stress tests. The client ultimately saw the value of the product and is in the works of modelling out Detailed Personnel Planning and revamping of their existing budgeting and planning process.
Benefit realized: The client will initially be using the product for budgeting and planning with a later planned second phase that will incorporate Prophix reporting by integrating with multiple data points outside of their existing ERP.
