Digital Transformation: How To Get Started

Digital transformation is an opportunity for a fresh start – a chance to revisit the basics . What are the basics? There are two: 1) running the business and 2) managing the business . There are applications that help run the business, and that is the role modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems play . The purpose of ERP systems is to create excellent operational processes by focusing on creating cost efficiencies and improving product and service speed and quality .Corporate performance management (CPM) applications help manage the business . They streamline finance and management processes and improve business insight and strategic decision-making . CPM applications help to do the following:

• Provide insights across systems & processes

• Increase agility through dynamic planning & reporting

• Allow financial and operational scenario modeling

• Create alignment, collaboration and consistency across the enterprise

5 Steps to Unleashing Finance

With a CPM 2 .0 platform as a technical foundation, leaders should consider five critical steps to unleashing finance . Of course, every organization is unique so organizations should assess what steps to implement and when based on the specific needs of their business . The Five Steps to Unleashing Finance are as follows:

  1. Know the Business
  2. Drive Agility in Planning & Forecasting
