Controlling costs in engineering development with AI

The balancing act between budget cuts and rising development costs makes accurate cost forecasts in engineering more important than ever. In this context, AI-supported forecasting models can help identify bottlenecks early on and make decisions with confidence.

Our experts will show you how this works in practice in our webinar on February 5, 2026 , at 10 a.m. Specifically, you will see how individual forecasting models can be developed in collaboration with specialist departments, relevant data sources structured, and integrated directly into tools such as Anaplan, SAP Analytics Cloud, or Board.  

The focus of the webinar:

  • Accurate cost forecasts: AI-powered models for transparent and reliable cost estimates.
  • Data-driven management: Identify key cost drivers and use data sources in a structured manner.
  • Seamless integration: Integrate custom forecasting models directly into tools such as Anaplan, SAP Analytics Cloud, or Board .
  • Efficient decisions: Ensure well-founded economic decisions, lean processes, and high acceptance .
  • Reliable control: Identify risks early on and initiate measures.

See for yourself and learn how to efficiently manage your development projects, streamline processes, and increase acceptance within your company.
