Automating the CPM Cycle

• Corporate Performance Management is a cycle that begins with budgeting, and continues with comparison of actual performance against that plan. Reports and dashboards are used to analyse real-time data, and compare it to what was planned. Based on this analysis, the cycle begins again, with what-if analysis and re-forecasting.
• A truly integrated and automated cycle has tight collaboration among managers throughout the organisation, as well as tight integration between systems – the GL and other enterprise systems, and the software used for planning, reporting, and analysis.
• Companies that can achieve this automated and integrated CPM cycle can provide valuable insight into the performance of their business, and can deliver critical real-time information and analysis for strategic decision-making.
• They can decrease planning times and increase accuracy, improve companywide collaboration and alignment, and make better-informed decisions more quickly.

Obstacles to Success

What’s holding companies back?

• Pervasive use of spreadsheets. Over 65% of companies still rely upon spreadsheets for planning and reporting. While spreadsheets are good personal productivity tools, they are fundamentally unsuited for complex, dynamic, and collaborative financial planning and reporting processes.
• Large enterprise applications out of reach. Large enterprise software applications are often too expensive, complex, time-consuming, and IT-intensive.
