Technology consulting for planning, data and AI
We build Enterprise Decision Systems, designed around your business
We connect planning, data, AI and workflows around the decisions that drive your business, so trusted information turns into action.
Select a layer to see its role
Where the decision is made and acted on: a purpose-built app with the approvals and workflows around it.
An Enterprise Decision System, in plain terms
Four parts you can see and use, built together around the decisions a team makes every week.
Enterprise Decision System=
- Data foundationYour ERP, CRM and HR data, cleaned and trusted in one place.Built on Databricks, Snowflake or Microsoft FabricSee it in the example
- Governed planningThe drivers, rules and scenarios the business has agreed on.Built on Anaplan, or the planning platform you already runSee it in the example
- Decision appOne screen where a team sees the issue, compares options and approves.Built on A custom web app in the team's workflowSee it in the example
- AI agentsAgents that spot issues, explain the numbers and draft options.Built on Governed access to your data and plans; people decideSee it in the example
See it work
One business question, from insight to action
Follow a CFO's margin question through trusted data, a governed scenario, an AI recommendation and a human approval. Select each step to see it work.
A leader asks a question in the decision app. It goes straight to the people who own the answer.
Can we hold FY27 margin if steel costs rise 8%?
The system queries the governed data layer, which already brings ERP, procurement and project data together. No one rebuilds a spreadsheet.

The plan runs scenarios on the drivers and rules finance already owns, so every option is measured the same way.
| Scenario | Gross margin | Against plan |
|---|---|---|
| FY27 plan | 12.4% | — |
| Steel up 8% | 11.1% | −1.3 pts |
| Steel up 8%, escalators applied | 12.0% | −0.4 pts |
Calculated in Anaplan from the drivers and rules finance already owns
An AI agent prepares a recommendation and shows its working. FP&A reviews it before it goes anywhere.
Apply the price escalators on six contracts to recover about two thirds of the impact. Two projects stay below target margin and need a commercial review.
- Escalator terms checked against each contract
- Two projects flagged with their exposure
- Assumptions attached for review
The CFO decides. The system carries out the follow-up and records what was decided and why.
- Commercial team notified, six contract reviews openedDone
- Two projects scheduled for margin reviewThursday
- FY27 forecast updated in the planDone
- Decision logged with its assumptionsDone
Why Karta
Architected and built around your decision logic
We know what a CFO, an FP&A manager, a demand planner or a commercial leader has to decide, and the drivers, rules and KPIs behind it. Then we bring planning, data, AI and applications together under one architectural vision, designed around your business rather than a collection of technologies.
We design in this order
- The decisions
What does this team decide, how often, and with what at stake?
- The KPIs
Which measures do they track, forecast and act on?
- The data
What does each measure need, and where does it live today?
- The platform
Only then: the planning model, data foundation, AI and apps that deliver it.
