It has long been the case that companies capable of responding to the increase in speed, volume, and quality of information while making swift transformation decisions come out on top. Promoting a digital transformation (DX) as a key corporate strategy to achieve this has become the norm.
The promotion of DX is often undertaken in the following order: organize what the challenges are, measure their impact, assign an order of priority, and consider how to take action. In the organizing of challenges, you will always come across phrases such as budgeting, forecasting, performance monitoring, data analysis, and visualization.
Organizations often consider deploying EPM tools as a means of undertaking DX with regard to these key phrases (especially budgeting, forecasting, and performance monitoring). However, organizations will often pass on implementing DX because they lack an understanding of the benefits of EPM tools and struggle to visualize how to get the best out of them, leading to a cautious deployment approach.
The aim of this Insight is to enhance your understanding of digital EPM tools not just as a means to reduce workload, but as enablers of flexible adaptation to business transformation and support for management decision-making. In doing so, I hope it will help readers better grasp how to use these tools.
