About

Relanto is a tech consulting & advisory firm that helps large enterprises design and operate modern decision and execution systems across AI, planning, and digital platforms. Most enterprises don’t struggle because they lack tools or data. They struggle because AI, planning, and digital transformation evolve in silos, leading to fragmented decisions, slow execution, and rising operational risk. At Relanto, I work with CFOs, CIOs, COOs, and Strategy leaders to advise, design, and deliver enterprise-grade systems that connect how organizations plan, decide, and act, with governance, scale, and measurable outcomes. What we advise and deliver Enterprise AI & Agentic Systems → Enterprise AI strategy and operating models → Agent development, orchestration, validation, and observability → Moving AI from pilots to governed, production decision support → Applying AI directly inside ERP, CRM, data, and planning platforms Enterprise Business Planning (EPB) → Financial, sales, workforce, capital, and operational planning → Scenario modeling, forecasting, and decision intelligence → Replacing spreadsheet-led planning with connected, governed platforms Digital & Data Transformation → Cloud-native application and platform modernization → Data engineering, analytics, and AI-ready foundations → Technical debt reduction across ERP, CRM, and core enterprise systems The outcome We help enterprises reduce decision risk and execution friction by building connected planning, AI-enabled intelligence, and modern digital platforms, not by selling tools or point solutions. Relanto has advised and delivered for global enterprises including Cisco, Google, DocuSign, Autodesk, Amgen, Intuit, HP, Stripe, ServiceNow, and other Global 2000 organizations. 📩 naveed.altaf@relanto.ai

  • At Relanto, I advise and lead enterprise engagements across three independent service lines: Enterprise AI, Enterprise Business Planning, and Digital Transformation, helping senior leaders modernize decision-making, execution, and operational resilience at scale.
