Technology for Mobile Working

Empowering your employees with powerful business intelligence (BI) solutions helps them make better decisions. That's why we continuously evolve our technology to help organisations of every size gain BI faster and more efficiently.

Combine the capabilities of Microsoft Dynamics and Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager and you have a comprehensive solution that helps you gain deep insight into the business drivers that matter.

Better Track and Manage Performance

Whatever the size of your organisation, some issues are always the same. As an executive, it can be difficult to match tactical activities and day-to-day operations to over-arching corporate objectives. As a manager, it's not always easy to see the relationship between a widely diverse set of business processes and the key business drivers that affect future performance. And many staff have trouble finding role-relevant information they can act on to make a difference.

Microsoft Dynamics is a ready-to-use solution that helps everyone access data that is meaningful to their specific responsibilities in a convenient, clear and consistent manner. It offers straight-forward ways of moving essential financial, CRM and supply-chain data to Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services cubes (where you can take advantage of rich key performance indicator (KPI) capabilities). Combine it with Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager and you can view company data in one comprehensive application.

Focus on Key Performance Indicators

Whether you're an accounting professional, a sales and marketing executive, or an important contributor on the shop floor, you face the same challenge as your colleagues: to harness the relevant KPIs that will help you do your part in moving your organisation forward.

Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager links directly to your Microsoft Dynamics application suite data, enabling you to make sense of and gain valuable insight into your key business drivers. Being able to monitor KPIs in one convenient, consistent view means you can:

• Gain insight into the current status and trends of key financial ratios that can help you optimise the financial performance of your business
• Evaluate the effectiveness and profitability of your sales channels
• Monitor and measure key operational performance metrics and see how adjustments improve efficiency and control costs.

Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager defines, captures and displays your KPIs in a rich graphical dashboard display. Combined with dynamic drilldown support, it can reveal important historical trends and give your organisation the ability to analyse data out of key documents, spreadsheets and even websites. And it's familiar and easy-to-use because Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager uses and works with Microsoft Office and Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server.

Enjoy Familiar Applications

Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager is part of the Microsoft Office family of products, so it works like the applications you use across your organisation every day. This means you can take advantage of the investments you have already made and the skills you already know.

Enjoy built-in collaboration capabilities that provide a common setting for everyone to analyse data and formulate strategy. Take advantage of a robust framework for interpreting and working with business information, so that staff can not only understand data in its appropriate context, but also more effectively collaborate on group analysis and take action to improve business performance.
