According to Gartner, business analytics (including BI, analytics and CPM) is the CFO’s top technology for the enterprise and the finance organisation.


Why is that?• Only IT knows the answer….

• Disparate systems

• Massive amounts of raw data…little information

“I can’t get timely access to accurate business information”


Why is that?• Many people

• Many spreadsheets

• Many truths…

“When I finally get information, it’s not clear, concise and consistent”


Less than a quarter of all companies have reliable and consistent data.

There is never disagreement over numbers in management meetings.

There are minor differences between operational reports and finance data.

The high-level numbers agree, but we find it hard to explain variances in finance data with data from operational systems.

We spend a lot of time in management meetings arguing over which numbers are right.


What you need is…• Fast access to your information

• Correct data from all parts of the company

• Accurate and consistent for everyone
