Hi, I'm Fred Mamadjanov. I specialize in helping businesses with analytics, modeling, profitability, planning, budgeting, and financial management — with a deep focus on Oracle EPM and Vena Solutions. I provide training, solve complex problems, and improve the performance of EPM/CPM applications.
With over 10 years of experience in Financial Planning & Analysis and the Oracle EPM and Vena CPM space, I bring a wealth of knowledge and hands-on expertise. I work with clients worldwide — remotely or on-site — and I'm available for travel wherever the project takes me.
EPM Solution Architect | Founder, FMEPM
Built and led the financial planning and analysis function from the ground up, owning budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and management reporting. This deep FP&A experience is the foundation of how I approach every EPM implementation — I understand the business problems, not just the tools.
Led the first Oracle Fusion cloud implementation in the telecom industry, managing a diverse team of over 100 internal members as well as Big 4 and boutique consulting firms worldwide. A landmark project that shaped my approach to large-scale EPM delivery.
Worked with local boutique consulting firms on Oracle EPM and Vena implementations across multiple industries, deepening technical expertise across Planning, FCC, and PCM modules.
Joined Huron — one of the leading management consulting firms — where I delivered complex Oracle EPM solutions for enterprise clients across North America.
I bring Huron-caliber expertise directly to clients — without the big-firm overhead. Also co-founded CANOTUG and EPM Coffee Chat, and contribute actively to Oracle Customer Connect and the broader EPM community.
I created fmepm.com to share knowledge and experiences with the EPM/CPM community. Initially, I envisioned it as tuning into the fm.epm "radio channel" — a place to get insights.
Based in Toronto, I'm passionate about helping organizations build transparent and automated processes to improve accuracy and efficiency. The goal is always the same: turn data into decisions that move businesses forward.

"Fred quickly understood our requirements and addressed them efficiently. Throughout the implementation phase, he ensured that all open items were closed and followed up to see if there were any questions. Fred was always prompt in responding to our inquiries, providing detailed step-by-step instructions and comprehensive validation files when necessary, which was very helpful and allowed us to move forward at a fast pace. He demonstrated exceptional technical skills in developing custom business rules and logic for our forecasting and budgeting processes, including forms with dependent members. He also ensured the performance of our reports was excellent, given that they included dynamically calculated KPIs, and efficiently administered the entire application post-go-live."VP of Finance — E-commerce & Consumer Technology · Oracle EPM Planning & Budgeting
"Fred expertly guided us through the system setup, assisted with loading the test environment, and served as our main point of contact for configuring and testing forms during UAT. What truly stood out was Fred's responsiveness and ability to quickly address any issues — he not only fixed problems swiftly but also took the time to explain what went wrong, how he resolved it, and the impact on our financial model. His willingness to go the extra mile and ensure we fully understood the system made him an exceptional consultant and partner. Thanks to Fred's expertise and dedication, we were able to successfully complete the project on time and with confidence."Director of FP&A — Financial Technology · NetSuite Planning & Budgeting (NSPB)

"Fred came to us with only 1.5 weeks to absorb 13 years of Oracle PBCS knowledge following an abrupt team departure. Fred picked up everything quickly, asking pointed questions and taking detailed notes. He put together a comprehensive admin guide for our PBCS instance, owned all maintenance and monthly procedures, and worked off hours to help our teams meet deadlines. When I was stuck on a procedure, Fred was quick to step in and brainstorm solutions. It was a pleasure working with Fred and I would highly recommend him."Director of Finance Business Intelligence — Financial Services & Investment Research · Oracle PBCS
