Performance Management Software Selection

Successful Corporate Performance Management (CPM) software projects depend on adequate buy-in and commitment from key stakeholders, the right choice of software, a supporting strategy for change and adequate preparation for implementation.

Mega-vendors such as Oracle, IBM and SAP have acquired a number of smaller organizations making it more difficult to assess the true value of products on the market. Concentric Solutions bridges this gap and provides the industry knowledge and software selection experience that you may lack in-house.

Our selection framework ensures an optimal fit between client business requirements and the CPM software products currently available. We offer a methodical approach that simplifies the process of evaluating and choosing a software solution, minimizes risk and maximizes your potential return.

The Performance Management Software Selection service comprises two generic phases; preparation of the business case, and software selection. This comprehensive service typically involves a package of consultancy and includes the following:

Business Case Preparation

  • User needs analysis
  • Business process review
  • Requirements definition
  • Risk assessment
  • Cost/benefit analysis

CPM Software Selection
