Story
Inside Adyen, planning and forecasting used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in financials groups working out of the Netherlands. FP&A needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Adyen uses BillingCenter from Guidewire as the working layer for financial planning. Guidewire makes core insurance software for policy, billing, and claims used by property and casualty carriers. The practical change is simple: planning and forecasting has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Adyen gets from Guidewire is a durable place to run planning and forecasting and a way for FP&A to see the same financial planning at the same time.
