Case HopLop

HopLop is children’s indoor exercise and adventure park chain in Finland and Germany with 17 parks in total.

HopLop needed a planning tool for daily sales and Profit and Loss budgeting. The requirement was to combine planning from daily sales to monthly revenue with same input numbers – one input to one sales and to one revenue. One driver, usually the amount of children, gives the best understanding about business, rather than separate sales and revenue budget.

Key success factors for HopLop are:

• Easy versioning of budgets and forecasts
• Complex, but understandable drivers.
  • Amount of children per day * Ticket price * Days when park is open = Entrance sales.
  • Amount of employees * Average salary = Salary expenses
  • etc…
• Aligned with sales and bookkeeping data
• Data integration back to internal BI system (Qlik) with Oivalo PL extension
