The document discusses OpenMetrik, a management consulting firm that introduced enterprise software in 2000. It summarizes Chandra Sekar's view that individual software tools are not sufficient without integration and implementation on a governing framework. OpenMetrik delivers fully integrated portfolio management software to provide visibility across goals, projects, and operations through executive dashboards, project management, and tactical centers. The software aims to drive strategy through tactics and validate strategy using a balanced scorecard.

12. OpenMetrik Over view
“Individual software tools, separately and unto
themselves, are not the solution. Unless decision-
support apps are integrated and implemented on
top of a business driven governing framework,
management will continue to spar and grapple for
vital strategic and tactical information.
We need to manage and control the Information
pipeline…”
Chandra Sekar, 2001
