Connected Insight Dashboard of the Month - Process HeatmapKyuCho8
“How are we tracking against our benefit targets? Where are we leading and lagging?”. For most transformation programs, that question ignites a fire drill. With Connected Insight, the answer is at your fingertips. CI’s “Impact Tracking” dashboard template is one example for tracking and driving benefits for a broad range of programs. “Is our investment in programs such as RPA bringing the result we needed?” “How is the adoption rate across different countries?” …asked and answered.
Dimensions: CI’s multiple dimensions means you can toggle to view “impact” by business unit, region, process and other dimensions. To toggle, select a dimension at the top of the dashboard. Use the dropdown to filter to a more specific view.
Targets: This example “Impact” dashboard profiles changes in resources, cost and labor rates. The same dashboard can be use to track a broad spectrum of benefit targets, depending on the focus of your transformation program.
Current Quarter: In this example, this sample company uses the bar chart to compare the % changes in the various operating regions using a “prior quarter” comparison. A positive trend during this quarter is in green color and the negative in red.
Quarter over Quarter (Q/Q): The right side heatmap indicates changes in absolute value, in a powerful visual that allows you to quickly see where your program is leading and lagging. The result is represented in the color spectrum Green to Red, Green being the positive and, Red being the negative.
The left two sections of this heatmap contain information related number of staff ("FTE" and "+/-FTE PQ") and the cost ("Labor Rate" and "+/-rate PQ"). The right section shows the total labor cost compared to the previous quarter; and whether the positive or negative Q/Q result is caused by headcount decrease/increase or labor rate increase/decrease.
Trendline: The bottom section of this dashboard shows in one picture the trendline for FTE, Labor Rate, and Total Labor Cost for the past three quarters. These charts are an effective way to get an overall sense of the transformation journey over time.
Use-Cases:
Monitoring of organization change or restructuring
Process reengineering or RPA/automation impact
Merger & Acquisition or divestiture over time
Shared services, BPO, Global Business Services implementation over time
Introducing Connected Insight. A transformation analytics platform that global companies use to drive operational improvements in focus, cost, and agility for functions such as finance, HR, procurement, IT, etc. Our most common use-case is GBS/BPO expansion and optimization

Turning your Excel Business Process Workflows into an Automated Business Inte...OAUGNJ
Many organizations have evolved key internal business processes built on top of Microsoft Excel. These cross-functional workflows involve several organizational units responsible for collecting business system transactions, modifying this raw data, consolidating, transforming, pivoting and preparing data into a published set of Reports & Graphs – all in MS Excel. Such workflows are a burden to organizations – not repeatable, costly, time-consuming, inflexible and hard to scale, and evolve to become more complex over time. Business critical processes such as financial analysis, operational analysis and revenue analysis are often supported this way. Attempting to replace such systems can be quite daunting and a barrier to replace. The goal of this session is to present an easy to understand methodology and use cases to demonstrate how to move from an operational workflow in Excel to truly automated Business Intelligence.

The leader's job is to set a clear direction of what their organizations mean by "results" - Peter Drucker
Here's a partial example of how to do that with Balanced Scroecard
This week Chris Garber was at the EXL LifePRO conference in Naples FL presenting "How to Win Friends and Save Money". The presentation talks about how companies can improve efficiency by 40%+ using process improvement, technology, and data solutions.
“How to win friends and save money”
Improve your efficiency by 40%+ using process improvement, technology, and data solutions.
The competitive landscape, economic environment, and information technology continue to show up on top of the major challenges life insurers will face in the coming years. EXL Consulting will demonstrate that with process improvement, technology, and data solutions you can not only survive, but thrive, in this ever changing environment.
Key topics include:
1) Streamlining processes and improving turnaround time
2) Enhancing staff productivity while reducing errors
3) Improving pricing and customer insights with data federation
4) Modernizing legacy systems
5) Enabling customer self-services and mobile
The document discusses how business performance management (BPM) and a balanced scorecard approach can simplify outsourcing decisions. BPM involves tracking key performance indicators in real-time to monitor business processes. It establishes objectives, measures processes, and defines acceptable performance levels. This provides transparency to evaluate vendors. The balanced scorecard considers financial, customer, internal process, and learning/growth metrics. It ensures operations align with strategy. BPM dashboards then allow managers to monitor current performance and drill down if needed. This approach was applied successfully to improve claims processing at an insurance company by better aligning staff and reducing cycle times.
Business analytics and business intelligence are key ways for companies to gain a competitive advantage. Integrating business intelligence into business processes management allows companies to make faster and more consistent decisions based on relevant, timely data. It also improves tracking of decision efficacy and enhances organizational responsiveness. Combining BI with BPM provides end-to-end visibility into processes and enterprise data, enabling companies to automate decisions and optimize key business processes.
This document discusses how business intelligence can benefit financial institutions. It defines business intelligence and describes how it involves collecting and analyzing data to improve business decisions. It then provides examples of how business intelligence can help various parts of the financial industry, including retail banking, insurance, and investment banking, by identifying profitable customers, optimizing marketing, reducing costs and risks, and improving customer service.
This document discusses business intelligence (BI) in financial institutions. It defines BI as gathering meaningful information to help with analysis and conclusions. An ideal BI system gives employees easy access to needed information and the ability to analyze and share it. The document contrasts traditional reporting with BI and analytic applications. It also discusses identifying BI opportunities by evaluating where it could improve decision making. The benefits of BI include improved operational and strategic decisions from timely information. The document outlines the layers of a BI infrastructure from operational data to delivering intelligence to users.

Nordic SaaS HUG The Biggest Takeaways from INBOUND 22.pdfSigneBjrklund
Get the biggest takeaways from this year's INBOUND conference hosted by HubSpot.
For this event, we have gathered the biggest takeaways relevant for B2B SaaS companies to share with you.
This year’s big theme was “Connectivity”. Today, we have so many systems to navigate and so much data that it is almost impossible not to create any friction between them. So how do we make sure to create as little as possible to secure clean data? That, we’ll touch upon and also how HubSpot’s new toolbox can work as your very own data quality center.
There is also exciting news in terms of new product launches. We can reveal that HubSpot is (finally) rolling out a beta for Customer Journey Mapping. With Customer Journey Mapping, you can attribute and analyze the complex buyer’s journey through your marketing and sales activities - with all your HubSpot data. We have been waiting forever for this one and we can’t wait to play around with it.

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headedvikram sood
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.
ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

Internal Benchmarking (+external)
Set informed targets based on best demonstrated performance. CI
enables you to benchmark at all levels of your organization. Our
module for APQC integrates external benchmarks.

Connected Objectives and Drivers
Investments in GBS or process automation are made to drive
improvements in focus, cost and agility. CI enables you to analyze
your organizations and processes by connecting the metrics for your
objectives with the underlying drivers.
03
Measure the Impact
Track your ROI across organizations and processes as you install
automation and expand GBS. CI enables you to see where the impact
is and where you are leading and lagging.

15. Q: Can CI integrate with our network and our PowerBI?
A: Yes. CI is a cloud app hosted on AWS, with a secured API to easily integrate with
your network.
Q: What is the cost?
A: The platform is licensed to you on an annual basis. The total cost of ownership is
equivalent to saving or redeploying a FTE or two annually. The licensing cost
covers ongoing support when you need it.
Q: The data and analytics cover GBS and the business end-to-end by
process and/or different business dimensions. We can isolate to GBS
only or combined with business data to analyze and evaluate. How?
A: CI uses two integrated modules: “Center” for GBS and “Enterprise” for the
business. The data collection process uses two different purpose-built methods
for Center and Enterprise. The data structure is designed to enable the
integrated analytics and eliminate blind spots.
Q: How or where do you get the resource and cost data? ERP? HR systems?
A: No. CI uses an efficient and highly automated template-driven process for
gathering the data. No IT involvement is required. By doing this you get 10x
more visibility and flexibility versus relying on ERP or HRIS data. The process
moves fast and requires minimal time from the business.
