Vision http://
Environment-AwareTM Performance Traditional performance improvement methods look at cost to maximize profitability… They only look at traditional internal financial measures or ratios, such as debt-to-equity or inventory turnover. More advanced organizations directly connect their internal systems for management decisions. However, they rarely have all the data in one place. They may have many dashboards that don’t tell the overall story and are difficult to use for decision making. Leading-edge businesses combine traditional measures with new intentions, information sources and insights to create value and wealth in a rapidly changing world. We call this performance management that is Environment-AwareTM. These businesses are directly connected with community and industry measures. They are companies that compare themselves against a plan and their environments. Making your numbers while losing market share is not winning. 9/12/11 4 CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft                 © Copyright 2010  Driver6, Inc.                 All Rights Reserved

Performance Strategy Alignment Business agility means that everyone – from CEO to front-line workers – can quickly execute on changing strategies. All organizations need to communicate plans clearly, translate them into tasks, monitor and report on progress to any level of detail. At the same time, employees need the tools to execute properly on a day-to-day basis, as well as make well-informed decisions to improve performance and mitigate risk. ,[object Object]

Decision Analytics Using facts to make decisions is not a new concept: companies are using business intelligence tools to identify, analyze and act on critical business issues every day.  But the quality of the information gathered and how people act on this information varies widely from organization to organization. Often the overall impact of this analysis falls short of expectations and is not even communicated to a broad audience needed for decision-making.  These companies haven’t understood that better decision-making has to be a core-competency.  World-class firms know how to connect for accurate information, implement key decision technologies and implement proven performance management techniques.  We call these companies Environment-AwareTM.  They have unique strategic ideas, they know how to connect to the external measures and are able to adjust quickly with agility to changing markets: ,[object Object]

Consolidation, Planning & Forecasting To consistently manage your company's performance, you need to develop timely, accurate plans and budgets aligned with your strategic goals. To meet rapidly changing business conditions, you need the ability to seamlessly integrate corporate and departmental planning, quickly model business scenarios and re-forecast. Finally, you need a way to ensure a fully documented audit trail and compliance with strict guidelines for consolidating and reporting company information both internally and externally.  Requirements need to be in accordance with regulatory requirements for International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and electronic filing of financial statements in Extended Business Reporting Language (XBRL) format. ,[object Object]

Customer & Product Optimization Improving profitability involves more than a headlong pursuit of slashing costs. It's the ability to identify your most valuable assets and products, while testing the impact that changes in pricing and process improvements have on costs and profitability. This will give you the insight to act decisively with a clear understanding of what the outcome will be. Yet today many organizations endeavor to run detailed cost and profitability reporting on spreadsheets and other in-house solutions. This can result in infrequent reporting that involves a high degree of manual effort from your finance department – and that can produce results that have limited credibility.  In an era of increasing pressure to deliver sustainable financial results, there is no better time to drive more value from your cost and profitability reporting; ,[object Object]

The Success 6
“The Success 6” Factors that ensure success In any implementation, success depends on more than just development, testing and a technical focus.  It rests on how well the organization teams internally, if they are clear on the key changes that must occur, able to adapt and manage change, and select the right partners with the business and technical skills to help lead and implement the change.  Through our extensive experience with global organizations and our understanding of BMS over the last month, we believe these following factors are key to the success of your performance management initiatives. Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft                 © Copyright 2010  Driver6, Inc.                 All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 24
“The Success 6” - OWNERSHIP Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Ownership, resource involvement, buy-in In our experience client ownership, involvement, and buy-in are key to a successful project, driving cost management, ROI and sense of organizational commitment.  Our project approach starts with building a comprehensive team with domain expertise and experience that takes ownership and leverages a collaboration framework aligning to the business drivers in every element of the work plan.  We do this by focusing on collaboration, iteration of the solution to draw out early user involvement and acceptance and knowledge transfer from the initial planning phase to the formal project close.  This allows us to manage costs, deliver quick time to value and instill ownership in the client team throughout the solution lifecycle ensuring self sufficiency in ongoing development, support and improvement of the new business processes and supporting technologies.

“The Success 6” - PRIORITIES Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Defining, aligning and managing priorities Success depends heavily on how well the team understands the business requirements, priorities and is able to manage the transition to the future state management processes.  For BMS to achieve their tracking, reporting and analysis goals, it is important to take the critical business needs and prototype as much and as quickly as possible to build a foundation for a rapid solution.  It is far more costly in all respects to modify business processes, scope and functionality later in the project than it is to define and validate them from the beginning.  This includes defining priorities and identifying issues related to business solution as early in the project lifecycle as possible.  All specification, requirements and best in class solution development and delivery techniques need to be considered, adopted, and set as standards to be driven across all dimensions of the project.  As such, business alignment, requirement definition and prototyping is needed at every phase to align the full scope and ensure these priorities are achieved at each phase of the project.  CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft                 © Copyright 2010  Driver6, Inc.                 All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 26
“The Success 6” – DRIVERS Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Business drivers and solution definition After the business priorities, scope and iterative approach is understood and aligned to support and optimize the business processes, it is necessary to define the business drivers, solution model and how these drivers will support the scope and business requirements throughout the project.  This includes defining drivers, metrics, targets and the business data required to drive the meet the business priorities.  Key dimensions are going to be consolidated cost, intercompany profit, tax, gross margin and both physical and financial views of inventory.  It is important to ensure the visibility needed for these key solution areas are codified in the deliver models and are used to drive performance, achieve targets and are part of the continuous improvement cycle across all phases of the project.  These business drivers directly impact the solution approach, design and iterations to ensure all stakeholders achieve the reporting, analysis and requirements, which are the foundation of success in this project.

“The Success 6” - DELIVERY Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Business goals, solution approach, performance optimization, reporting, analysis To ensure success in any reporting and analysis solution, the current reports, business data, user workflows and business rules need to drive the solution delivery.  The complexity in the data, reports and views need to evaluated to ensure an optimal design, drive the right business result and accommodate the future business growth and performance needs.  Business process priorities need to be defined, process flows mapped and understood and both data needs and user participation identified and pulled in early in the project  to ensure efficiency in all reporting and analysis cycles.  Reports are reviewed to identify the optimal design to take advantage of inherent dynamic capabilities, which can then minimize the number of reports required to meet reporting, analysis and stakeholder needs. As the new system provides process optimizations and the finance teams gain efficiencies, executive and business leaders will expect to get immediate access to accurate information with insight and visualization.  This is a natural expectation given the time and expense invested and used to support the business justification.  Beyond the inherent reports and data views delivered during the first stage of the project, specific reporting, analysis, visualization and dashboard needs must be defined.  This is an area that is often overlooked during initial planning and yet is critical to incorporate in every phase throughout the implementation.

“The Success 6” - QUALITY Ownership Results Priorities Drivers Quality Delivery Data quality, integration, automation and governance One of the key challenges organizations face during performance management implementations is the ability to get and deliver automated, clean, consistent, and trusted information.  This includes historical data on both an actual and plan basis and accessing data from on tax, consolidated costs, intercompany profit, gross margin and inventory.  Inventory will be the most difficult given the inherent disconnect between the financial and physical view.  Considerable data cleansing and transformation along with the ability to identify and quickly correct errors found during reporting is critical.  Having a set of test data that can be validated as early in the project as possible, will be key to ensuring both trust in the reporting data as well as getting user testing and acceptance early in the project.  Solution deliver strategies must encompass much more than the tools being used, but also the processes and ownership from both an IT and business user perspective.
“The Success 6” - RESULTS Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Foundation for best-in-class performance management and market results As you drive performance management throughout the enterprise, business performance improvements need to deliver quick wins and value today, cover core processes and lay a foundation for best practices in the future.  Clear goals for success need to be defined, success criteria established and an approach that is bought into by all key stakeholders so that the success of the project can be measured and improved throughout every stage.  This project will focus primarily on reporting in key operational and financial area of the business.  However, additional value will be delivered as more reporting, analysis and visibility capabilities are delivered.  In our experience, successful businesses don’t look at the initial reporting project as an end point but as a first step in a process focused on delivering insight to all users and stakeholders throughout the enterprise.  More reports, analysis views, drill downs and dashboards must be identified, scoped and a roadmap developed so that these follow on expectations are not only managed but achieved.  Best in class organizations view all performance management projects as delivering not only the insight the business needs to make more informed decisions but also look to combine data outside their organization for metrics, drivers and benchmarks to drive business process optimization and market growth.

Environment-AwareTM Performance Traditional performance improvement methods look at cost to maximize profitability… They only look at traditional internal financial measures or ratios, such as debt-to-equity or inventory turnover. More advanced organizations directly connect their internal systems for management decisions. However, they rarely have all the data in one place. They may have many dashboards that don’t tell the overall story and are difficult to use for decision making. Leading-edge businesses combine traditional measures with new intentions, information sources and insights to create value and wealth in a rapidly changing world. We call this performance management that is Environment-AwareTM. These businesses are directly connected with community and industry measures. They are companies that compare themselves against a plan and their environments.

  • 35. “The Success 6” Factors that ensure success In any implementation, success depends on more than just development, testing and a technical focus. It rests on how well the organization teams internally, if they are clear on the key changes that must occur, able to adapt and manage change, and select the right partners with the business and technical skills to help lead and implement the change. Through our extensive experience with global organizations and our understanding of BMS over the last month, we believe these following factors are key to the success of your performance management initiatives. Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft © Copyright 2010 Driver6, Inc. All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 24
  • 36. “The Success 6” - OWNERSHIP Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Ownership, resource involvement, buy-in In our experience client ownership, involvement, and buy-in are key to a successful project, driving cost management, ROI and sense of organizational commitment. Our project approach starts with building a comprehensive team with domain expertise and experience that takes ownership and leverages a collaboration framework aligning to the business drivers in every element of the work plan. We do this by focusing on collaboration, iteration of the solution to draw out early user involvement and acceptance and knowledge transfer from the initial planning phase to the formal project close. This allows us to manage costs, deliver quick time to value and instill ownership in the client team throughout the solution lifecycle ensuring self sufficiency in ongoing development, support and improvement of the new business processes and supporting technologies. CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft © Copyright 2010 Driver6, Inc. All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 25
  • 37. “The Success 6” - PRIORITIES Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Defining, aligning and managing priorities Success depends heavily on how well the team understands the business requirements, priorities and is able to manage the transition to the future state management processes. For BMS to achieve their tracking, reporting and analysis goals, it is important to take the critical business needs and prototype as much and as quickly as possible to build a foundation for a rapid solution. It is far more costly in all respects to modify business processes, scope and functionality later in the project than it is to define and validate them from the beginning. This includes defining priorities and identifying issues related to business solution as early in the project lifecycle as possible. All specification, requirements and best in class solution development and delivery techniques need to be considered, adopted, and set as standards to be driven across all dimensions of the project. As such, business alignment, requirement definition and prototyping is needed at every phase to align the full scope and ensure these priorities are achieved at each phase of the project. CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft © Copyright 2010 Driver6, Inc. All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 26
  • 38. “The Success 6” – DRIVERS Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Business drivers and solution definition After the business priorities, scope and iterative approach is understood and aligned to support and optimize the business processes, it is necessary to define the business drivers, solution model and how these drivers will support the scope and business requirements throughout the project. This includes defining drivers, metrics, targets and the business data required to drive the meet the business priorities. Key dimensions are going to be consolidated cost, intercompany profit, tax, gross margin and both physical and financial views of inventory. It is important to ensure the visibility needed for these key solution areas are codified in the deliver models and are used to drive performance, achieve targets and are part of the continuous improvement cycle across all phases of the project. These business drivers directly impact the solution approach, design and iterations to ensure all stakeholders achieve the reporting, analysis and requirements, which are the foundation of success in this project. CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft © Copyright 2010 Driver6, Inc. All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 27
  • 39. “The Success 6” - DELIVERY Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Business goals, solution approach, performance optimization, reporting, analysis To ensure success in any reporting and analysis solution, the current reports, business data, user workflows and business rules need to drive the solution delivery. The complexity in the data, reports and views need to evaluated to ensure an optimal design, drive the right business result and accommodate the future business growth and performance needs. Business process priorities need to be defined, process flows mapped and understood and both data needs and user participation identified and pulled in early in the project to ensure efficiency in all reporting and analysis cycles. Reports are reviewed to identify the optimal design to take advantage of inherent dynamic capabilities, which can then minimize the number of reports required to meet reporting, analysis and stakeholder needs. As the new system provides process optimizations and the finance teams gain efficiencies, executive and business leaders will expect to get immediate access to accurate information with insight and visualization. This is a natural expectation given the time and expense invested and used to support the business justification. Beyond the inherent reports and data views delivered during the first stage of the project, specific reporting, analysis, visualization and dashboard needs must be defined. This is an area that is often overlooked during initial planning and yet is critical to incorporate in every phase throughout the implementation. CONFIDENTIAL Discussion Draft © Copyright 2010 Driver6, Inc. All Rights Reserved 9/12/11 28
  • 40. “The Success 6” - QUALITY Ownership Results Priorities Drivers Quality Delivery Data quality, integration, automation and governance One of the key challenges organizations face during performance management implementations is the ability to get and deliver automated, clean, consistent, and trusted information. This includes historical data on both an actual and plan basis and accessing data from on tax, consolidated costs, intercompany profit, gross margin and inventory. Inventory will be the most difficult given the inherent disconnect between the financial and physical view. Considerable data cleansing and transformation along with the ability to identify and quickly correct errors found during reporting is critical. Having a set of test data that can be validated as early in the project as possible, will be key to ensuring both trust in the reporting data as well as getting user testing and acceptance early in the project. Solution deliver strategies must encompass much more than the tools being used, but also the processes and ownership from both an IT and business user perspective.
  • 41. “The Success 6” - RESULTS Ownership Results Priorities Quality Drivers Delivery Foundation for best-in-class performance management and market results As you drive performance management throughout the enterprise, business performance improvements need to deliver quick wins and value today, cover core processes and lay a foundation for best practices in the future. Clear goals for success need to be defined, success criteria established and an approach that is bought into by all key stakeholders so that the success of the project can be measured and improved throughout every stage. This project will focus primarily on reporting in key operational and financial area of the business. However, additional value will be delivered as more reporting, analysis and visibility capabilities are delivered. In our experience, successful businesses don’t look at the initial reporting project as an end point but as a first step in a process focused on delivering insight to all users and stakeholders throughout the enterprise. More reports, analysis views, drill downs and dashboards must be identified, scoped and a roadmap developed so that these follow on expectations are not only managed but achieved. Best in class organizations view all performance management projects as delivering not only the insight the business needs to make more informed decisions but also look to combine data outside their organization for metrics, drivers and benchmarks to drive business process optimization and market growth.
