FP&A teams spend 47% of their time collecting and validating data, and only 19% rate their data quality as advanced (FP&A Trends Survey).
Before budget and forecast AI goes on your 2027 list, clean up what it’ll be reading.
#FPandA #DataQuality
AI agents are getting service account logic - broad access, set at setup, never revisited. That's not a security posture, it's a gap. Zero Trust closes it. Our take on Zero Trust for AI agents 👉 pmsquare.com/resource/blogs/…
#AgenticAI #ZeroTrust
Gartner: AI leaders invest 4x more in data foundations than those who struggle with AI.
Not on models. On foundations.
AI amplifies what's already there. Is your data ready to take on AI?
#DataFoundations #AIReadiness #Cognos
In July: Cognos 12.0.x end-of-support was "under 90 days away." That time has passed.
If you're still planning, this is the point where "we have time" stops being true.
#Cognos #IBM #EndOfSupport
Wolters Kluwer: 44% of finance teams will run agentic AI by year-end — a 600%+ jump in two years.
"AI-powered FP&A" isn't one big initiative. It's small automations on top of a planning model that already has to be trustworthy.

Found another TM1 environment running on an expired SSL cert last week. Nobody knew until integrations broke.
Quick thing to check before it checks you.

MCP adoption keeps accelerating. 10,000+ MCP servers are now published, with the protocol integrated into ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and VS Code. #AgenticAI is showing up inside everyday business tools - are you evaluating where MCP fits into your #data and #AIstrategy? 🤔
IBM Bob 2.0's most interesting feature isn't speed. It's the "workflows" model that decides which steps get AI, which get automation, and which need a human-in-the-loop. Details: 🔗 bob.ibm.com/blog/bob-v2-rele…
#AgenticAI #SoftwareDev
Cognos 12.0.x end-of-support: under 50 days out. Miss it and you lose support and access to the newer AI reporting agents.
If you haven't scoped the upgrade, check out our latest blog post 👉 pmsquare.com/resource/blogs/…
#Cognos #IBM #EndOfSupport
IBM's Planning Analytics Agent now connects watsonx Orchestrate straight into TM1 via MCP. Once configured: plain-English questions → your dimensions → MDX queries. No rebuild required. #TM1 #watsonx #PlanningAnalytics
Gartner predicts more than 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by 2027, usually not the model's fault. Where's your pilot actually stuck? gartner.com/en/newsroom/pres…
IBM tied the new AI agents (recommendation, summarization, sharing, authoring) to version 12.1.2. Not a license issue. A version gate. No 12.1.2, no agents.
Our new post breaks down the version gate, what's actually in 12.1.2, and what a realistic upgrade plan looks like.

Half of finance orgs still run zero AI in FP&A. The data's already there in TM1, in Cognos, years of structured financial models.
On current SaaS platforms, the real gap is model hygiene, not the tech. Fix that first. #FPandA #PlanningAnalytics #TM1
Gartner finds that AI leaders invest 4x more in data foundations than those with poor outcomes. Not in models. Not tools. In foundations. And for Cognos and TM1 teams, your environment is the investment.
