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.
4%

20% 23% 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.

53%


What you need is…
• Fast access to your information
• Correct data from all parts of the company
• Accurate and consistent for everyone
