In 2025, nearly 89% of respondents rate Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) as critical, very important, or important, substantially higher than in 2024. In addition, adoption and use of AI-based capabilities continues to rise while there is a gradual shift away from annual budgets in favor of rolling forecasting. While not dramatic, these changes show that organizations are willing to evolve and adopt new approaches in their use of EPM to best support their organizations.
