Dear Silburn,
I invite you to get acquainted with the innovative Online Cost Planning Service at http://www.res-plan.com/#!cost-planning/c1x8t . The service implements unique algorithms for flexible and efficient cost management.
The basic idea is as follows. When income and costs can not be predicted exactly, it is reasonable to plan costs as numerical intervals. You specify minimums and maximums for expected funds and costs. The planning results are also numerical intervals in general case, and they are clarified in the course of the plan implementation. This approach allows to drastically reduce a probability of going beyond a budget.
The website contains the video presentation of the Service.
I believe the Service can be useful for any enterprises, including SME's. I would be grateful for any comments, questions, suggestions.
Hi Alexander,
I just scanned the site and it is quite comprehensive.
I will have my people take a look and report feedback
