Business Intelligence and Performance Management Metrics for Better, More Strategic Business Decisions

Every organization has key performance metrics that can provide insight into the health of the enterprise — including performance measures such as financial performance, marketing results, customer care and a host of other measures. In many organizations, however, there are multiple versions of these measures — varying assessments of the same metric, whether caused by different methods of calculation, disparate assumptions or other variables.

In such cases, it can be extremely difficult and time-consuming for management to gather the metrics needed for reporting, let alone metrics that are consistent and that everyone agrees to. In some instances, the stakes can be even higher: a company could run the risk of sending incorrect figures to external audiences such as financial regulators or shareholders.
