Planax AB

What Planax AB does

Planax AB is a privately held Swedish consulting boutique headquartered at Gamla Brogatan 32, Stockholm, specializing in Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A). The company delivers consulting services focused on reviewing and improving client processes and systems across budgeting, forecasting, planning, and reporting. It also provides Business Intelligence advisory, data warehousing expertise, and system-independent planning advisory that covers procurement, feasibility studies, implementation, maintenance, and offshore delivery. Planax explicitly describes itself as a team of senior employees from major consulting firms operating in the startup phase of the company.

The firm's core technology partnership is with Axiom EPM from Stratadecision, which ranks highest in Gartner's customer satisfaction survey. Planax implements Axiom via agile projects, with continuous training during implementation so clients become self-sufficient. The company also offers an integrated connector between Axiom and Microsoft Power BI that automatically mirrors data rights and enables combined data visualization. A dedicated Axiom EPM Nordic Support Center (support.planax.se) handles post-implementation tickets for regional clients.

Planax generates revenue exclusively through professional services — project-based EPM implementations, planning advisory, BI consulting, and data warehousing engagements — with no published pricing. The go-to-market is direct, consultative, and relationship-driven, reaching enterprise clients in the Nordic region primarily through its website (planax.se), direct email ([email protected]), and a careers channel ([email protected]). The company has 1–10 employees, no disclosed funding, no named customers, and no public marketing or social media presence beyond its corporate website.

Broad incumbents

• Oracle EPM Cloud (Hyperion): Oracle's flagship EPM/FP&A suite with deep installed base in Nordic large enterprises. Represents the legacy incumbent that Planax/Axiom frequently displace through mid-market modernization engagements.
• OneStream Software: A leading unified corporate performance management (CPM/EPM) platform with a global partner network. Competes with Axiom as an EPM suite of choice for enterprises; Planax competes for implementation services on the Axiom side of the same category.
• Jedox: EPM and planning platform with integrated BI and partner-led implementation services. Comparable to Planax's combined EPM/BI/Power BI positioning and competes for FP&A and budgeting workloads.
• Anaplan: Enterprise connected planning platform with a strong global partner network delivering FP&A and EPM implementations. A primary alternative to Axiom in the same planning/forecasting category Planax serves.
• Workday Adaptive Planning: Cloud-native EPM/FP&A solution from Workday with a large implementation partner ecosystem. Competes directly with Axiom in FP&A, and Planax-style consultancies serve as its partner network.
• SAP Group Reporting / SAP BPC: SAP's incumbent EPM/group reporting suites are the legacy alternative to Axiom in many Nordic enterprises. Planax competes for advisory and re-implementation work when SAP customers modernize to lighter-weight EPM.

Emerging players

• Prophix: Mid-market-focused EPM/CPM software with an implementation partner network. Competes with Axiom for the same underserved mid-market FP&A buyers and shares the partner-delivered GTM model.
• Pigment: Fast-growing cloud-native EPM/FP&A platform with a partner-led implementation model. Increasingly winning the same Nordic and European mid-market FP&A workloads that Axiom and Planax target.
• Board International: Unified decision-making platform combining BI, CPM, and predictive analytics. Targets a similar FP&A buyer profile and is a credible alternative to Axiom in mid-market EPM deals.

Direct peers

• Magnus Hiie EPM Konsult: A Nordic EPM consultancy offering similar FP&A and EPM implementation services. Directly comparable boutique competitor competing for the same Nordic enterprise FP&A buyers and often working with overlapping EPM platforms.
