Delivering connected planning at scale across Asia
In a fast-moving Asia-Pacific business environment, digital transformation is no longer optional. It is imperative. With enterprises facing growing complexity in supply chains, retail channels, finance and workforce planning, the need for an agile, scalable planning platform is acute.
When Anaplan expands its infrastructure in APAC/Southeast Asia, most notably the launch of a dedicated data-centre in Indonesia, and VISEO brings its consulting and implementation expertise, the combination forms a powerful value-proposition: enterprise-scale connected planning, rapid time-to-value, and localised delivery.
In July 2025, Anaplan announced the establishment of a new data centre in Indonesia, signalling a significant commitment to the region. The move is designed to deliver reduced latency, local data residency and enhanced regulatory compliance for organisations across Southeast Asia.
This infrastructure expansion coincides with Anaplan’s broader multi-year investment roadmap and underscores the urgency for large enterprises, especially in retail, supply chain and finance, to adopt high-performance planning platforms that can handle real-time decision-making at regional scale.
Why Anaplan’s APAC infrastructure expansion matters
Anaplan’s data centre strategy in Asia-Pacific
Anaplan announced the launch of a new local data centre in Indonesia. The key benefits flagged by Anaplan include:
- Reduced latency and improved performance for Southeast-Asia and Indonesia customers, enabling real-time planning, forecasting and scenario modelling.
- Data-residency and compliance: addressing local regulations and security expectations in the region.
- Scalable infrastructure to support rapid adoption of connected planning, integrated business planning (IBP) and multi-dimensional modelling across finance, supply chain, HR and sales.
What this means for Asia-Pacific enterprises
For organisations operating in Asia-Pacific, especially those with multi-country footprints, omni-channel retail operations, or fast-growing digital business models, these infrastructure enhancements mean:
- A planning platform that doesn’t suffer from geographic or latency bottlenecks.
- Enhanced trust from stakeholders and regulators thanks to local data hosting.
- Better ability to scale planning capabilities regionally while remaining cohesive globally.
How VISEO complements Anaplan’s platform
Long-term partnership & deep domain expertise
VISEO has been a partner of Anaplan since 2014 and has developed strong capabilities around Anaplan implementation, connected planning and retail/finance transformation. Some highlights:
- VISEO supports end-to-end Anaplan services: assessment, agile implementation, scaling, global roll-outs.
- VISEO was recognised as Anaplan Asia Partner of the Year for FY23.
- VISEO offers industry-specific solution kits (e.g., “Anaplan for Fashion”) built on the Anaplan platform, demonstrating both domain and platform fluency.
Localised delivery for global ambitions
With Anaplan’s infrastructural presence growing in APAC, VISEO’s local teams and expertise become a key differentiator:
- VISEO’s footprint in Asia allows clients to adopt Anaplan’s enterprise planning platform with compliance, cultural understanding and regional best practices.
- For large clients (such as those you work with on digital transformation and omnichannel retail in Asia), the combination means they can roll out connected planning across countries while leveraging local support and global standards.
The synergy: what joint clients can unlock
Unified planning across functions & regions
By combining Anaplan’s infrastructure expansion (enabling local performance) with VISEO’s consulting and industry expertise, organisations gain:
- Cross-functional planning (finance, supply chain, sales, HR) aligned across geographies (“connected planning”).
- Reduced time from data to decision: faster forecasting, scenario modelling, what-if analysis.
- Consistent, scalable deployment across Asia-Pacific — global standards with local flavour.
Accelerated time-to-value
Because VISEO has solution accelerators and knows the Anaplan platform well, clients benefit from:
- Shorter implementation cycles (versus starting from scratch).
- Best-practice models and industry-specific accelerators delivered regionally.
- Lower risk when deploying in multi-country/multi-division contexts.
Trust, compliance & governance
The regional infrastructure from Anaplan means clients get platform performance and data sovereignty; VISEO adds governance, change-management, user adoption and local support. This combination is vital for enterprises in regulated industries or operating across multiple Asia jurisdictions.
