Solutions · Commercial planning & forecasting

A commercial plan that knows
what moves it.

Tariffs, price actions, demand and freight, the plan is built on drivers tied to governing records, tracked against live actuals, and wired to the levers that close the gap.

The forecast is a spreadsheet, and the spreadsheet is a hostage negotiation.

The plan is 40 tabs deep“The forecast is a spreadsheet with 40 tabs.”Built once a year, broken by February, because none of its assumptions are connected to anything that updates.
Variance takes weeks to explain“We missed by 4% and spent three weeks learning why.”Plan-vs-actual lands as one number; decomposing it into price, volume, mix and cost is a manual archaeology project.
The plan and the price file have never met“Planning says raise prices; pricing never heard.”The plan assumes actions nobody staged, and pricing takes actions the plan never modeled, two systems, zero feedback.

Build the plan on drivers, not hope

Tariff exposure, supplier increases, freight, price actions, demand, each driver ties to a governing record and moves the plan when you toggle it. Scenarios are one click, not one weekend.

  • Drivers tied to records: TAR-2026-09, PL-2026-03, FRT-Q4
  • Base, shock and managed-response scenarios, instantly
  • Revenue and pocket margin planned together

Variance that explains itself

Actuals land on the same spine the plan lives on, so every variance decomposes to its drivers automatically (price, volume, mix, cost) by segment, while the quarter is still open.

  • Plan-vs-actual by segment, continuously
  • Variance attributed to drivers, not debated in meetings
  • Drift flagged mid-quarter, while it’s still fixable

From plan gap to staged response

When the plan drifts, the response planner models the levers (list changes, freight recovery, corridor discipline) with guardrails on, and hands the chosen plan to governed execution.

  • Levers modeled with live margin and volume impact
  • Guardrails enforced in the model, not the retrospective
  • The approved response becomes a price action, the loop closes

The questions FP&A and commercial leaders ask first

Does this replace our FP&A tool or ERP planning module?

It replaces the commercial half of the spreadsheet: the revenue, price and margin plan built on drivers. Corporate consolidation stays where it is: Revomo feeds it a commercial plan that is actually connected to what the business is doing.

How is the forecast produced, is this a black box?

No. The plan is driver-based and every driver cites its record: the tariff schedule, the staged price action, the freight index. When the number moves, you can point at why, which is exactly what the board asks.

What makes this different from planning in spreadsheets, honestly?

Two things spreadsheets can’t do: actuals land automatically on the same records the plan was built from, and the response to a gap is staged in the same system that executes it. The loop closes instead of restarting every cycle.

Plan on drivers, not vibes.

Bring this year’s plan and last quarter’s miss. We’ll show you the drivers, the decomposition and the response.
