Why Sempre?

Our consultants are experienced, knowledgeable and have a secure appreciation of the challenges and complexities businesses grapple with.

Thorough pre-installation consultation and planning
Our approach starts with thorough evaluation of your organisational needs to advise on the most appropriate planning solution right for you. Factoring in these needs, and taking into account security and integrity, we establish what needs to be done to deliver ‘One Version of the Truth’ incorporating data from across your organisation.

Data Management for EPM
Sempre Analytics is uniquely capable of ensuring the data that feeds your EPM is trusted, accurate, secure and well governed. We are not just an excellent EPM platform implementer, we are data experts also.

Installation planning for minimum disruption
Whether you are upgrading from previous versions of planning software or adopting from scratch, we’re on hand to reduce non-availability of data and ensure ‘business as usual’ every step of the way.

Training
Our aim is to get your team up to speed as swiftly as possible – with the end goal of enabling you to become self-sufficient.

Ongoing support
A dedicated Customer Success Manager, ongoing access to our Support Desk, annual or biannual technology reviews ensure that you are always on top of your analytics environment. We’re here to ensure you get the very best out of your investment.

So, what makes us different?

We believe in customer self-sufficiency

We hate to see people struggling with technology because of a lack of training, or the need to rely on a third-party to make changes. We design every system so our customers can own it themselves.

We believe in service over sales

You’ll never hear us recommending things which benefit us, but have very little benefit for you. We are a customer-first organisation, not a sales first organisation.

We believe in continuity of consultant

Having to regularly educate a new consultant on your business or your systems, slows down the effectiveness of a project. With Sempre, you never get a sea of new faces. You’ll always work with someone who you know, and who knows you.

We believe in relationships over transactions

Too many companies are focused on hitting quarterly targets, rather than building long-term relationships. We aim to become a true partner to our customers, not just a resource.
