Equip your team for change

Our team of expert consultants apply deep domain understanding and software industry insights to help you prioritise requirements and select applications that best service your budgeting, forecasting, consolidation, financial reporting or business analytics demands. The journey to a better CPM world typically involves a two-step approach:

Step 1: Business Case Development:
comprising analysis of stakeholders and user needs, business process reviews and requirements definition, risk assessments and cost/benefit/ROI analyses.

Step 2: Software Selection
comprising vendor evaluation, request for proposal preparation and response analysis, demonstrations and proof of concepts, solution scoring and benchmarking to decision analysis and software contract guidance.

Our Advisory Services include:

Functional Requirements Reviews
We work with organisations to gather, collate and evaluate functional reporting and analysis processes. This exercise challenges the ‘as is’ information needs of your business and helps map out a ‘to be’ vision of business analytics.
Preparing a Solution Blueprint
Our Solution Blueprint service provides a roadmap and pathway to achieving better Corporate Performance Management practices. It helps customers uncover key focus areas and articulates how CPM solutions can be utilised to provide better business insights, greater accountability and faster close cycles. It adopts a ‘start anywhere’ approach that considers budgeting and planning, forecasting, monitoring through to financial close and reporting.
Software Selection
Our Software Selection service uses a structured framework to align your specific Functional Requirements with CPM vendor offerings that satisfy an agreed Solution Blueprint. We review key considerations such as strategic fit, economic value, cost of ownership and probability of project success. Our industry experience helps customers de-risk the selection and adoption of CPM technology.
