Subject. The expediency of implementing an intelligent FP&A platform in a small-scale company and the methodology for calculating investment indicators to assess the economic feasibility of such a project. Objectives. Building a model for assessing the economic feasibility of implementing an intelligent FP&A platform in a company with revenue of 80 million rubles, which allows us to move from describing a digital solution to quantifying its investment effectiveness. Methods. The methods of scientific knowledge, scenario analysis, comparative analysis, and financial modeling are used. Results. Based on the developed model, a comprehensive assessment of the economic feasibility of implementing an intelligent FP&A platform in a small-scale company was carried out, and the structure of capital and operating costs was detailed based on public market indicators. The economic effect was modeled, taking into account the productivity growth not only of financial specialists, but also of managers involved in planning and forecasting processes. Conclusions. Implementation of an intelligent FP&A platform in a company with annual revenue of 80 million rubles. it is economically feasible. The practical significance of the research lies in the development of a methodological approach that makes it possible to move from a qualitative description of the advantages of digital solutions to a quantitative assessment. The proposed model serves as the basis for making informed management decisions and can be adapted to the specifics of a particular organization.
