Webinar for the “Profitability Analytics Center of Excellence” About IPPM Processes
Introduction:
Improving profitability and complexity management are two highly interconnected challenges. While activity-based costing has a role to play in addressing both, it must be embedded into broader efforts to improve how organizations plan, manage and govern their business.
Achieving such improvements requires a data-driven approach that enables organizations to fully integrate strategic, financial and operational planning and performance management processes. However, integration efforts are not effectively addressing these challenges. Especially in the manufacturing sector, where Integrated Business Planning, Integrated Financial Planning and Integrated Performance Management processes are falling short of expected value and benefits.
One problem is that there is no universal definition of what fully integrated processes entail. As a result, critical capability are falling between the cracks of strategic, financial and operational processes and software tools. Strategically-focused finance executives need to understand these gaps and know how to fix them. This webinar will equip you to do so. By attending, you’ll learn:
-
-
