The other is LessSoftware, a supplier of Web-based supply chain management (SCM) applications. The acquisitions are part of FinancialForce’s strategy to build a broad suite of applications that run on salesforce.com’s Force.com platform. The three companies already have joint customers, so they build on established use cases and relationships. FinancialForce.com itself is jointly owned by salesforce.com and Netherlands-based Unit 4. The acquisitions are consistent with FinancialForce’s go-to-market strategy as well. Rather than sell only a complete suite, it offers customers the option of buying separate applications that address a specific need. For instance, one initial use case was to get FinancialForce’s sales order processing module to bridge cloud-based sales processes offered in salesforce.com to a company’s on-premises ERP system. At the time, many companies were using desktop spreadsheets or paper forms to pass order information. And rather than replicating the typical ERP and CRM forms-driven application design, FinancialForce aims to differentiate its software by designing it to facilitate communications and coordination in executing processes that connect functional silos in an organization – in this case the front office and the back office. Because all of the code within its suite is running on a single platform in the cloud, FinancialForce can offer an interoperable set of capabilities that can be purchased in entirety or in component form. The two recent acquisitions further this strategy. Vana Workforce provides a necessary complement to FinancialForce’s professional services automation (PSA) capabilities, which it acquired in 2010. It provides, for instance, the skills management and basic HR functionality for staffing and scheduling consulting projects. These capabilities are notably lacking in a large majority (73%) of midsize and smaller businesses, which are an important segment of PSA and for FinancialForce generally. Moreover, since all three of the companies’ software is built on the Force.com platform, integrating them should be straightforward. Using this single platform allows for easier cross-application workflows, single sign-on and a single reporting database from which to generate reports, dashboards and scorecards. The applications enable social collaboration with Chatter, salesforce’s enterprise social networking application, but salesforce needs to develop it further to support narrowcasting and collaboration in context to meet the needs of Finance, the back office and other business functions, as I have pointed out. Vana Workforce’s Human Capital Management application supports a range of hire-to-retire functions including core human resources management, applicant tracking and recruiting, onboarding, compensation management and learning management. Vana should benefit from having broader distribution and access to development funds to continue developing the suite. LessSoftware’s SCM suite offers a useful set of applications including Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ), Order Fulfillment, Service Contracts, Inventory Management, Supplier and Spend Management. The new owner will rebrand the suite as FinancialForce SCM. From a business perspective, FinancialForce has flexibility in acquiring customers, selling whole suites or one or several parts that customers might need, especially as add-ons to their Salesforce implementation. And this product strategy is facilitated by use of the Force.com platform, which allows its main development focus to be on process design and capabilities, not the plumbing, and an indirect sales channel, which reduces the need for its own sales organization. However, I calculate that FinancialForce needs both a significant proportion of full-suite deals and a sufficient volume of component sales to achieve healthy margins. One challenge with implementing this strategy is that in many geographies – especially North America – the consulting partners that sell and implement business software usually focus on a single silo, whether it’s finance, HR, sales or logistics. Resellers of financial software may have little experience in implementing HR software and may not have much interest or skill in selling human capital management. And since the buyers of these functional components work in different departments, the ability to cross-sell is not a given. That noted, in some cases this is probably not going to be an issue. For example, partners that implement PSA software can readily master the Vana HCM components and seize the opportunity to expand their project scope. And there are plenty of consultancies served by FinancialForce and its resellers that do not have HR management capabilities, which they could acquire now. There are many different types of companies that ought to consider FinancialForce to address their needs. One group is midsize companies that are looking for a financial management system in the cloud like California Blue Shield Foundation that we have previously awarded our Leadership Award. A second comprises professional services organizations that are looking to automate time-consuming administrative functions as well as enhance the effectiveness of their project staffing. A third is companies that need to connect their sales processes with finance and SCM capabilities to support more effective execution of these processes. These acquisitions should help FinancialForce serve all of them.

I find it significant in three respects. First, it can substantially reduce the time and resources it takes for a company to go live in adopting the Host Analytics suite, lowering the cost of implementation and accelerating time to value. Second, it enables Host Analytics users who have the appropriate permissions to create and modify models and templates that they use in planning, budgeting, consolidation and reporting. This can enhance the value of the system by making it easier to maintain. Third, it can make it far easier to routinely collect and connect planning and analytical models used by all departments and business users as it has outlined in its planning cloud offering. Although it has limitations in its initial release, AirliftXL gives corporations a workable alternative to stand-alone spreadsheets and has the potential to substantially increase productivity and effectiveness of an organization in the full range of budgeting, planning, consolidation and reporting functions. AirliftXL addresses a fundamental issue that diminishes the productivity of companies, especially finance departments. I’ve noted in the past that desktop spreadsheets are indispensable tools for individual tasks and ad-hoc analysis and reporting, but they are poorly suited to repetitive collaborative enterprise-wide functions such as planning, budgeting, consolidation and reporting. Spreadsheets are seductive because so many people are well trained in using them that they can translate their ideas into even complex models, do analysis and create reports. However, the productivity that spreadsheets afford in authoring is more than offset when they are used over time. Desktop spreadsheets have fundamental technological shortcomings that make them unwieldy for any repetitive, collaborative task. After more than a few people become involved and a file is used and reused, cracks begin to appear. Very quickly, a large percentage of the time spent with the file is devoted to maintaining and updating them, as our spreadsheet research has shown with up to 18.1 hours per month in maintenance that I have analyzed. Spreadsheets are notoriously error-prone. In addition to monetary losses, some of which have been spectactular, there is a drag on productivity as users try to locate the source of errors and discrepancies that routinely occur in spreadsheets and then fix those mistakes. AirliftXL enables ordinary users to create spreadsheet models and reports in Microsoft Excel and then quickly convert these to the Host Analytics enterprise system. Those that “own” a model, analysis, report or process can control these in Host Analytics. This speeds the process of setting up Host Analytics because there’s no need for someone to “translate” the company’s current set of spreadsheet models, analyses and reports. This cuts the time (and therefore the cost) of setting up the new system. It also means that whenever changes need to be made, those responsible can make the changes themselves. Allocations and analytical models used in planning and consolidations can become part of a company’s system almost immediately. These alterations can be effected by “exporting” the Host Analytics object to a spreadsheet, modifying it and uploading back to the system. As well, users can create new models, analytics and reports in Excel and import them into the Host Analytics system. There’s no need for resident expertise or consulting time to make such changes. AirliftXL provides an organization with the best of both worlds: first, the up-front productivity that comes from enabling the author, a subject-matter expert, to quickly translate his or her ideas into a spreadsheet and, second, the ongoing productivity that is achieved when the plan, analytic model or report is kept in a centralized, easily accessible and controlled environment. These same authors can update and expand their analytical models or reports. Host Analytics can render models back into an Excel spreadsheet and the owner – not a consultant or trained IT person – can make the necessary changes and then upload them back into the system. This is an important capability because change is a constant in businesses and these changes must be reflected in financial performance management systems. Organizations have hundreds, sometimes thousands, of spreadsheets circulating that support a multitude of processes and users in every department and business unit. AirliftXL can help incorporate them into a controlled enterprise software environment. Information that today is kept in one part of an organization can be viewed and used by others. Budgets and integrated business plans can quickly incorporate the most up-to-date information. Complex models now held in spreadsheets can be more controllable, consistent and safely accessible to a wider group of users. Creating links across individual spreadsheets (say, sales forecasts prepared by the sales organization and a company income statement forecast prepared by Finance) is straightforward, although linking to external data sources (say from a spreadsheet to a relational data store) is a little trickier. As well, Excel’s built-in financial, statistical and logical functions are all maintained in Host Analytics. AirliftXL has the potential to be an important differentiator for the company. IBM Cognos has had something like this in Cognos Insight but from my analysis it is not as easy to use as the Host Analytics feature. Some corporations have finance IT professionals with deep subject-matter expertise as well as IT systems skills, but even their presence does not address the root cause of the misuse of spreadsheets. Most people who understand the needs of the business lack the IT skills necessary to use their company’s systems. They default to using spreadsheets because it is more expedient than trying to transfer their knowledge to someone who understands IT systems. While AirliftXL is an important first step in taming the spreadsheet problem, it has limitations. For one, it’s not possible at this point to create a dynamic model such as an integrated income statement, balance sheet and statement of cash flows. This is a snap in a two-dimensional spreadsheet grid but much harder when working with a relational or multidimensional database. Moreover, there’s no guarantee that the spreadsheets imported into Host Analytics will be free of formulaic errors or even if it is well constructed. Thus, companies will need to put quality control processes in place, especially if a spreadsheet can have a material impact on the accuracy of financial statements or could defeat controls for fraud. It also would be handy if some vendor would create a product that could automate the digestion of masses of spreadsheets floating around companies as described in this patent for extracting semantics from data. Despite these reservations Host Analytics’ AirliftXL provides an important capability that can cut costs of deploying and maintaining its software and increase its value to a company. This advancement builds on top of its recent rating as a Hot Vendor in the 2013 Value Index on Financial Performance Management. I recommend that corporations looking to change or upgrade all or some of their financial performance management suite consider Host Analytics and how AirliftXL helps transition the use of spreadsheets to a dedicated application approach.

Their pitch centered on three areas – data warehousing, big data analytics and integrated marketing – that to some degree reflect Teradata’s core market and acquisitions in the last few years of companies like Aprimo who provides integrated marketing technology and Aster in big data analytics. The keynote showcased the company’s leadership position in the increasingly complex world of open source database software, cloud computing and business analytics. As I discussed in writing about the 2013 Hadoop Summit, Teradata has embraced technologies such as Hadoop that can be seen as both a threat and an opportunity to its status as a dominant database provider over the past 20 years. Its holistic architectural approach appropriately named Unified Data Architecture (UDA) reflects an enlightened vision, but relies on the ideas that separate database workloads will drive a unified logical architecture and that companies will continue to rely on today’s major database vendors to provide leadership for the new integrated approach. Our big data benchmark research finds support for this overall position since most big data strategies still rely on a blend of approaches including data warehouse appliances (35%), in-memory databases (34%), specialized databases (33%) and Hadoop (32%). Teradata is one of the few companies that has the capability to produce a truly integrated platform, and we see evidence of this by its advances in UDA, the Seamless Network Analytics Processing (SNAP) Framework and the Teradata Aster 6 Discovery platform. I want to note that the premise behind UDA is that the complexities of the different big data approaches is abstracted from the user which may access the data through tools such as Aster or other BI or visualization tool. This is important because it means that organizations and their users do not need to understand the complexities of the various types of emerging database approaches prior using them for competitive advantage. The developments in Aster 6 show the power of the platform to access new and different workloads for new analytic solutions. Teradata announced three key developments about the Aster platform just before the Partners conference. A graph engine is added to complement the existing SQL and MapReduce engines. Graph analytics has not had as much exposure as other NoSQL technologies such as Hadoop or document databases, but it is beginning to gain traction for specific use cases where relationships are difficult to analyze with traditional analytics. For instance, any relationship network, including those in social media, telecommunications or healthcare, can use graph engines, but they also are being applied for basket analysis in retail or behind the scenes in areas such as master data management. The reason that the graph approach can be considered better in these situations is that it is more efficient. For example, it is easier to look at a graph of a social network and understand existing relationships and what is occurring, than trying to understand this same type of data looking at rows and columns. Similarly, using the ideas of nodes and edges, a graph database helps discover very complex patterns in the data that may not be obvious otherwise. An integrated storage architecture compatible with Apache Hadoop HDFS, its file system, is another important development in Aster 6. It accommodates fast ingestion and preprocessing of multi-structured data. Perhaps the most important development for Aster 6 is the SNAP Framework, which integrates and optimizes execution of SQL queries across the different analytic engines. That is, Teradata has provided a layer of abstraction that removes the need for expertise in different flavors of NoSQL and puts it into SQL, a language that many data-oriented professionals understand. Our big data benchmark research shows that staffing and training are major challenges to big data analytics for three-fourths of organizations today and advances in Aster 6 address multiple analytical access points needed in today’s big data environment. These three analytic access points which are the focus for Teradata are the data scientist, the analyst and the knowledge worker, as described in my recent post on the analytic personas that matter. For the first group of data scientists, there are open APIs and an integrated development environment (IDE) in which they can develop services directly against the unified data architecture. Analysts, who typically are less familiar with procedural programming approaches, can use the declarative paradigm of SQL to access data and call up functions within the unified data architecture. Some advanced algorithms are included now within Aster, as are a few big data visualizations such as sankey; on that topic, I think the best interactive sankey visualization for Aster is from Qlik Technologies, and was showcased at the company’s booth at the Teradata conference. The third persona and access point is the role of the knowledge worker, who accesses big data through BI and visualization tools. Ultimately, the Aster 6 platform brings an impressively integrated access approach to big data analytics; we have not yet seen its equal elsewhere in the market. A key challenge that Teradata faces as it repositions itself from a best-in-class database provider for data warehousing to a big data and big data analytics provider is to articulate clearly how everything fits together to serve the business analyst. For instance, Teradata relies on its partner’s tools like visual discovery tools and analytical workflow tools such as Alteryx to tap into the power of its database, but it is hard to see how all of these tools use Aster 6. We saw the Aster 6 n-path analysis nicely displayed in an interactive sankey by QlikTech who I recently assessed, and an n-path node within the context of the Alteryx who I also analyzed advanced analytics workflow, but it is unclear how an analyst without specific SQL skills can do more than that. Furthermore, Teradata announced that its database integrates with the full library of advanced analytics algorithms through Fuzzy Logix, and through partnership with Revolution Analytics, R algorithms can run directly in the parallelized environment of Teradata, but again it is unclear how this plays with the Aster 6 approach. This is not to downplay the integration with Fuzzy Logix and Revolution Analytics because these are major announcements and they should not be underestimated especially for big data analytics. However, how these advancements align with the Aster approach and the usability of advanced analytics is still unclear. Our research shows that usability is becoming the most important buying criterion across categories of software and types of purchasers. In the case of next-generation business intelligence, usability is the number-one buying criterion for nearly two out of three (64%) organizations. Nevertheless, Aster 6 provides an agile, powerful and multifaceted data discovery platform that addresses the skills gap especially at the upper end of the analyst skills curve. In an extension of this exploratory analytics position, Teradata also introduced cloud services. While we have seen vendors of BI and analytics as laggards in the cloud, it is increasingly difficult for them to ignore. Particular use cases are analytic sandboxes and exploratory analytics; in the cloud users can add or reduce resources as needed to address the analytic needs of the organization. Teradata introduced its cloud approach as TCO neutral which means that once you include all of the associated expense of running the service, it will be no more or less expensive than if it was to be run on premise. This runs counter to a lot of industry talk about the inexpensive nature of Amazon’s Redshift platform (based on the Paraccel MPP database that I wrote about). However, IT professionals who actually run databases are sophisticated enough to understand the cost drivers and know that a purely cost-based argument is a red herring. Network infrastructure costs, data governance, security and compliance all come into play since these issues are similar in the cloud as they are on-premises. TCO neutral is a reasonable position for Teradata since it shows that the company knows what it takes to deploy and run big data and analytics in the cloud. Although cloud players market themselves as less expensive, there still are plenty of expenses associated with it. The big differences are in the elasticity of the resources as well as the way the cost is distributed in the form of operational expenditures rather than capital expenditures. Buyers should consider all factors before making the datawarehouse cloud decision, but overall cloud strategy and use case are two critical criterions. Its cloud computing direction is emblematic of the analytics market position that Teradata is aspiring to occupy. For years it has under-promised and over-delivered. This company doesn’t introduce products with a lot of hype and bugs and then ask the market to help fix them. Its reputation has earned it some of the biggest clients in the world and has built a high level of trust, especially within IT departments. As companies become frustrated with a lack of governance and security and a proliferation of data silos that today’s business-driven use of analytics spawns, I expect that the pendulum of power will swing back toward IT. It’s hard to predict when this may happen, but Teradata will be particularly well positioned when it does. Until then, on the business side it will continue to compete with systems integration consulting firms and other giants vying for the high level trusted advisor position in today’s enterprise. In this effort, Teradata has both industry and technical expertise and has established a center of excellence populated by some of the smartest minds in the big data world including Scott Nau, Tasso Argyros and Bill Franks. I recommend Bill Franks’ Taming the Big Data Tidal Wave as one of the most comprehensive and readable books on big data and analytics. For large and midsize companies that are already Teradata customers, midsize companies with a cloud-first charter and any established organization rethinking its big data architecture, Teradata should be on the list of vendors to consider.

Confirming this trend, as salesforce.com Dreamforce event at least 10 such vendors will be showing their products. A few of them I saw at Call Centre Expo: Genesys, Interactive Intelligence, LiveOps, NewVoiceMedia and Vocalcom. But as an illustration of how rapidly this market has grown, Dreamforce also will host 8x8, Corvisa Cloud, Five9, inContact and ShoreTel. Between the two events there are 18 vendors offering such products, and many others will not promote and demonstrate products at the event. What has brought about this dramatic change of landscape? Our customer engagement benchmark research finds that first and foremost, in response to customer demand, companies have to support more and more communication channels. Our recently completed research on next-generation customer engagement management shows that on average companies now support about seven channels, but there are 17 in use by at least some of them. The new research also shows that complicating issues companies have in operating multiple channels is a lack of consistency across channels because the channels are managed as silos. The key step toward achieving consistency is to integrate all the channels, which is costly and time-consuming unless a company purchases an integrated product that can manage all the channels it has to support. Cloud deployment can help here. While vendors that supply on-premises systems struggle to fully integrate multiple channels, all these new vendors provide such capabilities, and all operate in the cloud. Be aware, however, that not all provide exactly the same capabilities, so potential buyers need to make sure that a product meets their particular needs. Providing cloud-based versions of products can help smaller companies especially because it reduces the required capital outlay, another consideration for potential buyers. As for why these vendors will be at Dreamforce, a contact center system needs to include more than infrastructure and typically includes some form of CRM, other business applications and increasingly analytics. This is where Service Cloud comes in: It provides core CRM capabilities, plus mobile and social media capabilities. Each of the vendors mentioned above has integrated its solution to Service Cloud in some way, but my briefings indicate that these integrations are subtly different; here again potential buyers should find the one that meets their needs best, looking for a combination that enables them to provide seamless, consistent experiences at multiple touch points. In today’s competitive business environment it is critical for companies to get customer engagement right. We just released our research on the topic that finds the complexity and lack of investment to be significant challenges for organizations to provide what the research finds as customer choice as the larger benefit realized in 60 percent of organizations. Certainly they aren’t supporting multiple channels for the fun of it. Consumers have changed and become intensely demanding. They engage through more and different channels than in the past, have higher expectations, and want answers fast and in personalized form, consistent across channels and relevant to their needs. From a technology perspective this means channel management must be integrated. In addition companies have to find ways to collaborate across business boundaries and find new measures to monitor and assess their customer-focused activities. More evidence that supports these insights is in our soon-to-be-published benchmark research on next-generation customer experience, and I look forward to sharing it with you. And for those of you at Dreamforce, have fun. I wish I could be there. Regards, Richard J.

Managing the pool of agents in a contact center has always proved a complex task and this is made more complex as interactions are now handled by most lines of business (marketing, sales, customer service, finance, HR, home workers and mobile workers). To do this many companies have deployed what collectively is called workforce optimization (WFO) systems: interaction recording, quality monitoring, workforce management, training and coaching, compensation management and reporting/analytics. My benchmark research into Next Generation WFO set out to discover what people, process, information and systems companies are using, the benefits they have gained, future plans to change and what barriers are holding back those changes. Overall the benchmark shows a mixed level of maturity in those companies that responded to our survey. Overall our maturity model shows 47% of companies at the lowest Tactical level, 23% t the next Advanced level, 17% at the Strategic level and 13% at our highest Innovative level. Closer examination shows that companies are least mature in the use of Information (54% at the Tactical level) and Technology (50% Tactical), with People (34%) and Process (30%) both significantly less immature. This is reflected in the number of companies at the Innovative level with People at 19%, Technology 15%, Process 14% and Information least innovative with only 6% at the Innovative level. Overall the maturity models shows us that companies are not yet taking full advantage of the latest WFO systems to revise their performance metrics, and make even more improvements to their processes and people. The lack of maturity in the use of information is highlighted in the metrics companies use to monitor and assess agent, contact center and interaction handling performance. The benchmark shows that four of the top five most popular metrics relate to operation efficiency: average length of a call, number of calls handled, quality scores and average time to complete after call work. While these metrics are important because they have a direct impact on costs, it is disappointing to see it is only the fifth most popular metric that relates to customers and the outcome of interactions: customer satisfaction. The results also raise questions over the level of hype surrounding newer metrics such as net promoter and customer effort scores which are 9th and 12th in the list of seventeen we included in the survey. Overall I conclude that despite claims to the contrary, the majority of companies are still focused on operational efficiency and reducing the operational costs of handling interactions and are less concerned about the outcome of interactions and the possible consequences. This conflict is highlighted further by examining two other key questions: drivers for improving agent performance and companies’ priorities for improving interaction handling. The top drivers are mostly customer-focused and relate to improving outcomes, while the priorities are more about improving operational efficiency and reducing the cost of handling interactions. The two top drivers are to improve the customer experience (86%) and customer satisfaction (72%), while the third, increase first contact resolution rates (44%) relates to operational efficiency and outcomes as any improvement will reduce operational costs (less call backs) and make customers happier as everyone have come to expect their issues addressed at the first attempt. Balancing these requirements is likely to be a struggle for most companies because on average companies are seeking to improve on average in almost six areas and the conflicts continue with other drivers ranging from increasing agent utilization (6th out of 14), increasing sales (10th), and satisfying regulatory requirements (13th). However the real conflict arises when you compare these drivers with companies’ priorities. Based on first choices, three of the top four all relate to efficiency and reducing the cost of interacting with customers: direct customers to self-service to avoid the cost of handling call by a live agent (27%), optimizing agent utilization (15%) so agents spend more of their time handling interactions, improve agent training (9%) so it is less generic and more focused on individual agent needs. Agent satisfaction rates joint forth but it is only the fifth highest priority that in any way realities to customers: route calls to best agent, which if achieved is likely to improve the opportunity to resolve the interaction at the first attempt and thus result in the desired outcome. Given the low level of maturity relating to information, it is pleasing to see that improving the production of metrics and utilizing more agent-related both feature in the list of priorities. In one role or another I have been involved in the contact center industry for over 25 years and it would be easy to say the results of this benchmark show that things haven’t changed a great deal in that time, and indeed there is a great deal of truth in this. However analysis of what systems companies plan to deploy gives me hope that at long last companies realize the customer experience is of paramount importance, and insights from other consumer research that show one bad experience can drive a customer away are at last having an impact. One significant change is the importance being placed on using new forms of analytics that allow companies to improve the process of producing reports, analysis and dashboards based on more sources of data, and as a consequence make it easier to produce more customer and outcome-focused metrics. This will show where companies need to take action and more companies adopting next generation WFO systems that support improved processes and join up interaction-related activities.

It can be especially confusing because much of what’s covered and discussed on this topic is geared toward technologists and others working outside of Finance, in areas such as sales, marketing and risk management. But finance executives need to position their organization to harness this technology to support the strategic goals of their company. To do so, they must have clarity as to what big data can do, what they want it to do, and what skills and tools they need to meet their objectives. Big data has always been with us, just on smaller scales: The term refers to data sets so large and complex that organizations have difficulty processing them using on-hand database management systems and applications. It has become a popular buzzword because technology for handling big data has crossed a threshold, making it at the same time more capable and cost-effective. Companies now can tap into huge amounts of structured and unstructured data using advanced data processing technologies, analytics and visualization tools to achieve insights not previously available using more conventional techniques. In a recent research analysis, I covered some of the potential benefits (and potential pitfalls) of big data as it relates to company management. Increasingly, the ability to analyze large quantities of business-related data rapidly holds the promise of fundamental changes in how executives and managers run their businesses. Properly deployed, big data analytics enables a more forward-looking and agile management style, even in very large enterprises. Because it allows more flexible forms of business organization, it can give finance organizations greater scope to play a more strategic role in corporate management. Big data and analytics are a natural combination. By itself, a mass of data is not especially useful, and there are significant challenges to teasing out insight from such large data sets. However, information technology has evolved to make assembling and working with extremely large amounts of data far more practical. As well, routines involving advanced analytics that were once the domain of people with Ph.D.s in statistics are increasingly usable by business analysts, as new analytical software packages are designed to hide the complexity of the underlying statistical work. My colleague Tony Cosentino recently summarized the progress to date in adoption of big data analytics, covering some of the existing uses (already numerous) and emerging trends. Keep in mind that it’s not just a matter of learning how to master new software and munge data. Finance departments must sharpen their skills in determining how to best utilize big data analytics. And it’s even more important that finance executives understand how to make practical use of big data analytics: In some cases users may want to consume only the output of the analytics created by other parts of the organization (such as demand forecasts by product families), while in others the organization may want to purchase applications that use or embed big data analytics (such as continuous monitoring for ERP systems governance) or enable price and profit optimization. Our benchmark research on operational intelligence, a technology-driven discipline that has been using big data operating across networks and systems has been using analytics for years, shows that the most common reasons for using such applications (cited by almost three in five companies) are to manage performance, detect fraud, comply with regulations and manage risk. These areas are broadly applicable for finance organizations, but I assert that as well as governance and control, initially the three main applications of big data analytics are planning, reviews and alerts. Here’s how. Companies do a lot of planning, so it’s useful to segment the activity. One way is by time. There are three main planning time frames in which big data analytics plays a role. Short-term tactical planning is used, for example, to project demand for specific products or create offers that might spur incremental demand. Especially in consumer products and business-to-consumer marketing, these models are statistically and computationally challenging, as they must be continually updated and adjusted. However, this is not an area of business where Finance has taken a role. Long-term and strategic planning can help determine the impact of a confluence of factors on markets and costs. Decades ago, the largest companies maintained strategic planning staffs to generate long-term forecasts to inform senior executives of important market trends. Except at companies that have very long cycles with specific demand and supply requirements, those staffs have disappeared or have been substantially reduced as corporations switched to third-party sources. In the time horizon between short- and long-term planning there are techniques for improving the accuracy of forecasts of revenue and costs using large sets of historical data, which enable organizations to better understand the various factors that influence demand. This sort of advanced modeling using predictive analytics can be useful in improving the accuracy of corporate business planning and budgeting, which is at the core of financial planning and analysis. Predictive analytics uses techniques from statistics, modeling and data mining that weigh multiple current and historical facts and their interactions to predict outcomes. Good predictive models can identify the most important factors driving outcomes, and because of this, they often can be more accurate than simple extrapolation. For example, by examining large sets of historical data, a fast-food chain can predict with reasonable accuracy demand for certain menu items at specific locations at a given hour of a given day by taking into account factors such as the day of the week, time of the year, sales patterns over the past three weeks, advertising spend and special offers. As useful as predictive analytics are for forecasting, they may be even more valuable when applied to reviews and alerts. Predictive analytics can provide a baseline against which to compare actuals. This, in turn, enables an organization to get an earlier warning when results diverge meaningfully from what was expected, so executives and managers can react immediately rather than in days or weeks. For example, in business-to-business relationships that involve many routine purchases (any sort of supplies, for example) a divergence from established trends could generate an alert to the sales organization. Embedded analytics in an order-entry system could highlight late or smaller-than-usual orders. These might indicate a competitive threat or some other issue that would benefit from a timely interaction with the customer. This is just one of the ways that data captured by the financial systems can be used to improve the effectiveness of other business units, enabling the department to play a more strategic role in supporting the company. Another use is in accounts receivable, where predictive analytics can promote customer satisfaction. To illustrate, a company that does a routine analysis of payment patterns can have a good idea of when specific customers will pay. If one that routinely pays its invoice between the 16th and 19th day of the month has not paid by the 23rd day, the analytics system generates an alert. A call to the customer or an automated email notes the delayed payment, asking if there was an error in the billing or some other point in dispute. There are a couple of advantages to this approach. If nothing else, if there is an issue, it is likely to be resolved more quickly. Moreover, from a customer satisfaction perspective, it’s a far superior form of customer interaction than waiting several weeks and then sending out a dunning notice demanding payment. Resolving any issue sooner improves cash flow, and if the company did make a mistake, asking for payment will only annoy the customer. Another use of big data in receivables is to automatically identify customers that are routinely tardy in paying. This can kick off an internal company discussion about what ought to be done about the situation, such as limiting credit or finding ways to accelerate payments. Governance is another area where big data analytics are already at work, with companies using it for fraud detection and alerting. For instance, software packages can monitor a company’s financial systems for evidence of suspicious activities such as payments to bogus vendors or top-level alterations to financial statements. Such systems are designed to be high-level controls that reduce the need for manual internal and external audit work. And even more is possible. As I noted earlier, in the not-too-distant future it may be possible to have an “auditor in a box” – a forensic system that continuously identifies and lists all suspicious activities, transactions and conditions and weighs their materiality. Such a system would permit more timely responses to the risk of material errors or fraud and facilitate examinations by external auditors. In addition to being far more efficient than periodic manual effort, the auditor-in-a-box concept is potentially more reliable because it examines everything rather than relying on sampling. However, there are challenges. Staffing and training are significant issues for Finance in dealing with big data analytics. Our research into the challenges of utilizing big data shows that nearly four in five companies find staffing and training to be an obstacle in utilizing big data. Despite the fact that analytics is an inherent element of the finance function, it almost always involves the broad application of basic approaches employing simple math (ratio and margin analysis, for example). Few departments have applied advanced analytics: Our finance analytics research finds that only 13 percent of finance departments employ predictive analytics. To be able to handle these staffing and training needs, finance executives must understand their department’s big data analytics competence requirements. A useful place to start is to become familiar with the five personas Tony Cosentino developed to describe the people working with business intelligence and analytics. These personas illustrate the various objectives, skills and interests that individuals bring to the discipline. Adapting his approach to big data analytics to this discussion, at the top of the list are highly skilled statisticians who do exploratory work and create purpose-built analytics and analytical models to address specific tasks. These people usually have advanced degrees in statistics and understand how to use sophisticated analytical software and data sets to their fullest. Few finance organizations need this level of capability. A second type of user includes business analysts who have in-depth knowledge of the business and finance issues, know how to access and apply available data relevant to the issue, and have the ability and commitment to master software that requires training but not an advanced degree in statistics. Depending on a company’s size, finance organizations will need a person or a group of people with this level of competence. A third type is the knowledge worker. This description includes executives, managers and directors who need to interact with – not just consume – advanced analytics. These types of users should not be expected to learn how to create or structure analytics, but they need to know how to employ analytics embedded in dashboards or applications as well as visual discovery tools, which are increasingly user-friendly. This level is where the need is broadest, so finance executives must focus most of their efforts in terms of developing these skills. Big data analytics is an important development that will challenge finance organizations to use new capabilities to improve their effectiveness and enhance their company’s competitiveness. There are many ways organizations can begin to address the challenge. At least, CFOs and senior finance executives should create a steering committee to identify opportunities to apply big data analytics; identify gaps in skills, processes, data availability and software; and establish timelines and goals. Moreover, if CFOs are serious about exploiting the potential of big data analytics, they must communicate its importance to their department and demonstrate a commitment to a plan of action.

By this I mean their understanding of what’s going on outside their company in addition to what’s happening within it. Today people have access to a trove of information about their own company, which is the result of decades of investment in an expanding range of enterprise transaction systems (ERP, CRM and supply chain management, for example) and convenient data stores that make accessing data easier than ever. But although people have access to internal information, most have big gaps in their knowledge about what’s going on in the outside world. Take, for example, market trends, information about a competitor’s, supplier’s or customer’s financials or industry-specific demand forecasts. Our benchmark research shows that while two-thirds of companies are satisfied with their ability to integrate information from standard internal sources, only 39 percent feel that way about reference or competitive data from external sources and 36 percent about text data from social media. Cloud-based deployment of applications has the potential to address this intelligence deficit, but only if users demand it. In some respects, the dearth of external information today is a legacy of limits imposed long-ago by computing infrastructure. Obtaining information about the world outside the four walls of an organization used to be difficult, time-consuming and not always trustworthy. Some people may have had subscriptions to magazines or industry newsletters. Yet unless these publications were nearby and you knew it, accessing their information was difficult. Today, however, almost all such information is available on the Web, often for free. If, say, you need to track production of closed die forging, press and upset forging by country in Europe, you simply look here. The Web has made it easier to receive and use information. Not too long ago, updating third-party data stores involved getting delivery of physical media (such as optical or magnetic storage discs). However, the bad old days linger on in attitudes. Most business people are not in the habit of thinking about integrating external data into enterprise systems, which I assert is one reason why only about one-third of companies have satisfactory access. Human nature is another reason why external information is not as available as internal. Organizations tend to look inward. Too often, performance is assessed only on an us-vs.-us basis, as in comparing actual results to a budget or to the same period a year ago. But business is a competitive game, not solitaire. In the past, it might have been difficult to use external benchmarks to measure an organization’s own performance, but in today’s environment it’s not. And there’s no good excuse for persisting in bad habits that prevent companies from using more information about the outside world. Organizational habits can be altered, but doing so usually requires a change of tone at the top. CEOs and senior executives stand to gain the most from better situational awareness, but I worry that few of them understand that a lack of readily available external information is undermining their company’s ability to compete. Speaking of bad habits, the integration of new technology into business operations has long been unsteady and inconsistent. It took about half a century after the invention of the fractional horsepower electric motor for the redesign of factories to take advantage of the greater flexibility of that technology over steam engines. By comparison, adoption of the Internet by business has been stunningly swift in some respects but not others. When it comes to the cloud, the extent of adoption differs considerably. Businesses that thrive on novelty – and the parts of the business that are most engaged in novelty (such as marketing, sales and product design) – have been the earliest to incorporate cloud technology into their processes and systems. Industrial companies and departments such as finance and operations have been slower to bring new information sources into their management processes. All companies can benefit from increasing their understanding of what’s going on outside their four walls. The cloud is there to help – but only if companies and their executives want that help.

Beyond the change in leadership, at this year’s show were a large number of vendors that have invested in new technology to advance human capital management (HCM). Overall I noted several interesting trends, some that were similar to those I written about earlier in the year and others that reflect the evolution of innovations seen at last year’s show, specifically expanding the use of mobile access within applications and further extending business collaboration into HCM platforms. In addition, there were other advances driven by market factors such as growth in new recruiting technologies. There were many newer vendors at the show, and updates to existing products focused on helping companies better manage different parts of the employee recruitment process, a growth spurt that likely corresponds to the ongoing economic recovery. These vendors included Jibe, which showed new recruiting analytics that can help organizations gain visibility into their recruiting activities via features such as improved location analytics and recruiting stage analytics showing where candidates are coming from and where they are dropping off in the process. Another vendor was Zao, which created technology using social media to make the referral management process a more effective part of the recruitment funnel for candidate sourcing. In addition, several others small and large made announcements, such as Ultimate Software, which announced a redesigned recruiting offering; Oracle, which announced several recruitment-related products at OpenWorld; and Talemetry, which partners with many of the larger vendors in the market and continues to invest in its market-leading recruitment product. All of these vendors and others in the recruitment market are making products that have changed what’s possible with recruiting software. It used to be largely about applicant-tracking automation and streamlining, but now it is includes effective recruitment marketing and analytics, as well as more effective matching through big data. Another significant highlight at this year’s show was how mobile access has become table stakes in most human capital applications. While mobility was an important trend at last year’s show, this year it is not a secondary application but a core part of the application design of many leading systems across HCM segments. Hunite presented an extreme example of how far a vendor can go with mobility in human capital at HR Tech’s Awesome New Technologies session. Its mobile technology helps users gain unified read/write access to all of their HR systems, regardless of vendor, on their mobile phones. And with the fall 2013 release of its system, SumTotal centers on the mobile user, making its entire system fully mobile and optimized for touch screens, and has deepened the platform’s social capabilities to extend across multiple parts of its product line. Cornerstone OnDemand, as I discussed earlier this year and again in the September 2013 release, built core mobile capabilities that are becoming the foundation of its application. Also, Workday has made strong investments in its mobile applications in releases 18 and 19, which I wrote about. It is worth noting that not just the smaller or best-of-breed vendors have reached this tipping point. Large ERP vendors Infor, Oracle and SAP have also successfully released mobile capabilities within their HCM applications. Oracle has completely mobility-enabled its current release of Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud with HTML5 and released a full-featured version of Oracle Tap, its native mobile device application. SAP SuccessFactors also has mobility-enabled most parts of its HCM application, giving managers and end users easy-to-use tools. Infor has started to release mobile applications that are integrated with different parts of its HCM offering. The trend toward mobility in human capital applications has been reflected several times in our benchmark research, which shows that in the workforce management segment more than half of organizations have already deployed smartphones and tablets. And this is a growing priority, with approximately one-third presently using these devices and 18 percent planning to deploy more of them. Another trend that is approaching a tipping point is business collaboration functionality embedded in HCM applications, a topic we discussed last year as well. While not as mature as the evolution of mobility within HCM, business collaboration is powerful. In past years business collaboration has existed mostly in the recruiting and learning segments of HCM products. However, vendors have now extended it into other processes within HCM, and deeper within those products. In the best-of-breed category Peoplefluent, which received this year’s Ventana Research Technology Innovation Award for Business Collaboration, has embedded business collaboration capabilities and real-time communication capabilities across its product suite. SumTotal Systems and Cornerstone OnDemand also extended business collaboration outside learning and recruiting, though both historically are learning system vendors embedding business collaboration capabilities in performance management, core HR management and other application areas. TribeHR, which is being acquired by NetSuite, provides core business collaboration capabilities that span its suite of HCM products for small and midsize businesses. Vendors including Oracle, SAP and Infor similarly have started to embed business collaboration in core processes of their HCM suites. SAP is using the SAP Jam product to build business collaboration across most of its HR processes such as performance, learning, onboarding and HR management. Similarly, Oracle uses its Oracle Social Cloud infrastructure to provide business collaboration capabilities across its HCM applications. Also, Infor has created Infor Ming.le, a business collaboration product that embeds business collaboration capabilities directly into the company’s HCM suite. Other and not as well known providers like Newsgator provide a social collaboration platform that can integrate to other HCM offerings like Oracle and SAP and can be used as an employee portal and also accessed via mobile technology. Another great example is RoundPegg that takes the context of culture and uses collaboration to engage employees on the mission, values and goals of an organization. Also new this year are more extensive business collaboration capabilities in workforce management systems. Several vendors, including market leaders ADP, Ceridian, Infor, and Kronos have increased workforce scheduling efficiencies with Twitter-like broadcast capabilities and Facebook-like wall posting to help workers find shifts they want and help managers fill them more effectively. According to our benchmark research on next-generation workforce management, these are in the top five most popular business collaboration capabilities. Our upcoming Next-Generation Workforce Management Value Index will evaluate leading vendors in this area of business collaboration. The growth and evolution of recruiting, mobile access and business collaboration in HCM are trends that benefit HR leaders by helping them meet their ultimate business goals more effectively. Such investments by vendors are also making the user experience more compelling and will therefore improve usability, which our benchmark research shows is the most important factor in evaluating technology products. So take a look at these new and updated products if your business is going to be conducting an evaluation in the coming months. Used correctly this next generation of products can improve the way your processes flow, the quality of your information and the way your people interact.

The combined company is likely to benefit from a broader geographic presence (PROS is based in Houston while Cameleon is in Toulouse, France) for their sales and marketing efforts. However, the longer-term strategic value of the merger lies in the combination of the related categories of price optimization and CPQ to improve sales effectiveness and financial performance. Price and revenue optimization, which I have written about before, is a business discipline used to effect demand-based pricing; it applies market segmentation techniques to achieve strategic objectives such as increased profitability, greater market share or both. Software to manage price and revenue optimization first came into wide use in the airline and hospitality industries in the 1980s as a way of maximizing returns from less flexible travelers (such as people on business trips) while minimizing the unsold inventory by selling incremental seats on flights or hotel room nights at discounted prices to more discretionary buyers (typically vacationers). Today, it is a well-established part of any business strategy in the travel industry and is increasingly used in others including retailing (chiefly through mark-down management), financial services and many business-to-business verticals. PROS started in the travel and hospitality industry, which accounted for 44 percent of its 2012 revenues, but its recent growth and focus have been more in manufacturing, distribution and services; those customers accounted for 56 percent of 2012 sales. For its part, CPQ software emerged to make the process of configuring complex products more efficient. This issue is of particular importance for industrial companies that sell to other businesses. A Class 8 truck, for example, has multiple options for mechanical parts such as the engine, transmission and braking system, as well as comfort features for the cab such as air conditioning and the radio/audio system. Assembling the various piece-parts of an offering manually, determining that the configuration is a valid one (for instance, whether transmission Y actually works with engine X) and calculating a basic offer price can be time-consuming and error-prone. CPQ software enables those quoting a price to quickly develop even multiple proposals for a prospective buyer. This is a well-established software category. Our benchmark research shows that about half of all companies with 1,000 or more employees use it, another one-third intend to deploy it and only 17 percent have no plans to use it. Although valuable on its own, when CPQ software is joined to price and revenue optimization in an end-to-end, lead-to-order process, it increases the effectiveness of that process by giving sellers more ways to intelligently manage volumes and margins through altering the cost of individual components. For instance, the base price of a unit may be priced with little or no markup if the goal is to generate margin on the other parts of the sale. (This is similar to many retailers’ strategies except that the price of each piece of the transaction may be negotiated and the prices involved are often considerably greater.) Optimization software can enable sellers to achieve their revenue and margin targets by using purchase behavior patterns to better assess the buyer’s price elasticity. Indeed, the choice of certain components themselves may provide sellers with clues about the buyer’s overall price sensitivity: For instance, those wanting certain features, brands or grades may be less inclined to negotiate and therefore should be quoted a higher price. (Similarly, certain online merchants have been found to charge buyers using Apple products more than others.) Thus when price optimization is part of the business logic in using CPQ software, it makes the software more helpful to the user. Viewed from the other side of the combination, adding a native CPQ capability to price and revenue optimization software makes the analytics far more actionable because it can support an end-to-end process. Although PROS has had CPQ capabilities in its Quote2Win application, they are not as robust as what’s available in Cameleon, which provides configuration capabilities and guided selling. PROS has published APIs to facilitate integration with CPQ systems, but integration out of the box with a full-featured application is certainly better. One of the biggest barriers to more widespread adoption of price and revenue optimization is that products don’t always enable user organizations to easily embed the analytics and data that drive optimization directly into the sales process. Businesses that first adopted price optimization (and which have the deepest penetration) include travel, hospitality and retail mark-down management. Their common characteristic is that all are (or started out as) relatively simple products (say, a round-trip seat or a dress) for which prices are set, not negotiated. Business-to-business (B2B) transactions, however, often are more complex because the product often is a bundle of physical goods, services, warranties and ancillary provisions such as delivery. Moreover, typically these transactions involve some negotiation allow the sales representative a degree of freedom in setting prices and discounts. Having the actual price being quoted is critical for to capture and use in the sales process as our research in sales forecasting found that pricing data is one of the top components in 48 percent of organizations but so is the configuration of products to 22% percent of organizations and want it to be included in the sales forecast. Because the process is more complicated, prospective users of price optimization may find it daunting to adopt the strategy. In theory at least, adding a robust CPQ capability should make it easier for a company to implement a successful price and revenue optimization strategy in a reasonable period of time. Decades of experience have demonstrated the value of this software category. Without the benefit of price optimization applications, it is almost impossible to assess a customer’s demand elasticity to determine an optimal offer price. Margin may be lost unnecessarily when sales people default to discounting to ensure a sale. Simple up-sell and cross-sell strategies can be beneficial, but they can fall short of what’s optimal and – increasingly – what’s possible. Having software to better gauge price sensitivity and control more elements of a negotiation with greater visibility into its profitability can help companies achieve an optimal balance of revenue and margin. The process can be even more effective when it’s coupled with sales incentive management software. All of which points to improving the sales process and our latest research in sales found that inconsistent execution is the largest impediment in 53 percent of organizations that is motivating management to invest into sales technology like CPQ and pricing optimization. Organizational issues also have inhibited adoption of price and revenue optimization strategies in industrial companies as well as the use of this category of software. Responsibility for managing profits usually involves both the finance and sales organizations. Both have roles in handling profitability, but the process is typically simplistic (using up-sell and cross-sell strategies with little regard to the profitability of the components), imperfectly coordinated between Sales and Finance and almost never optimized. Ideally, CEOs and COOs should be initiating an optimization effort, but I find this is rarely the case. Using analytics to manage pricing and support a sophisticated strategy is an important business innovation that industrial and other business-to-business verticals should embrace. Finance organizations – specifically the financial planning and analysis (FP&A) group – should take the lead, especially if they want to demonstrate the ability of Finance to deliver more strategic value to the company. Successful price and revenue optimization strategies can provide a sustainable competitive advantage. Companies of course need a pricing strategy; understanding the benefits of price optimization software can help them see what’s possible and develop an implementation plan.

One such company is Nuevora, which uses a flexible platform to provide customized analytic solutions. I recently met the company’s founder, Phani Nagarjuna, when we appeared on a panel at the Predictive Analytics World conference in San Diego. Nuevora focuses on big data and analytics from the perspective of the analytic life cycle; that is, it helps companies bring together data and process, visualize and model the data to reach specific business outcomes. Nuevora aims to package implementations of analytics for vertical industries by putting together data sources and analytical techniques, and designing the package to be consumed by a target user group. While the core of the analytic service may be the same within an industry category, each solution is customized to the particulars of the client and its view of the market. Using particular information sources and models depending on their industry, customers can take advantage of advances in big data and analytics including new data sources and technologies. For its part Nuevora does not have to reinvent the wheel for each engagement. It has established patterns of data processing and prebuilt predictive analytics apps that are based on best practices and designed to solve specific problems within industry segments. The service is currently delivered via a managed service on Nuevora servers called the Big Data Analytics & Apps Platform (nBAAP), but the company’s roadmap calls for more of a software as a service (SaaS) delivery model. Currently nBAAP uses Hadoop for data processing, R for predictive analytics and Tableau for visualizations. This approach brings together best-of-breed point solutions to address specific business issues. As a managed service, it has flexibility in design, and the company can reuse existing SAS and SPSS code for predictive models and can integrate with different BI tools depending on the customer’s environment. Complementing the nBAAP approach is the Big Data & Analytics Maturity (nBAM) Assessment Framework. This is an industry-based consulting framework that guides companies through their analytic planning process by looking at organizational goals and objectives, establishing a baseline of the current environment, and putting forward a plan that aligns with the analytical frameworks and industry-centric approaches in nBAAP. From an operating perspective, Nagarjuna, a native of India, taps analytics talent from universities there and places strategic solution consultants in client-facing roles in the United States. The company focuses primarily on big data analytics in marketing, which makes sense since, according to our benchmark research on predictive analytics, revenue-generating functions such as forecasting (cited by 72% of organizations) and marketing (67%) are the two primary use cases for predictive analytics. Nuevora has mapped multiple business processes related to processes such as gaining a 360-degree view of the customer. For example, at a high-level, it divides marketing into areas such as retention, cross-sell and up-sell, profitability and customer lifetime value. These provide building blocks for the overall strategy of the organization, and each can be broken down into finer divisions, linkages and algorithms based on the industry. These building blocks also serve as the foundation for the deployment patterns of raw data and preselected data variables, metrics, models, visuals, model update guidelines and expected outcomes. By providing preprocessing capabilities that automatically produce the analytic data set, then providing updated and optimized models, and finally enabling consumption of these models through the relevant user paradigm, Nuevora addresses some of the key challenges in analytics today. The first is data preparation, which our research shows takes from 40 to 60 percent of analysts’ time. The second is addressing outdated models. Our research on predictive analytics shows that companies that update their models often are much more satisfied with them than are those that do not. While the appropriate timing of model updates is relative to the business context and market changes, our research shows that about one month is optimal. Midsize or larger companies looking to take advantage of big data and analytics matched with specific business outcomes, without having to hire data scientists and build a full solution internally, should consider Nuevora.

I viewed Infor as basically a CRM vendor, and I don’t believe such systems have much impact on customer engagement and the customer experience. Indeed if you view Infor website’s product page, it features several product categories focused on internal processes: CRM, Asset Management, Financial Management, Resource Planning, Human Capital Management and Product Management. (By the way, my colleague Robert Kugel wrote about some of these after his visit to Inforum.) If like me you are not technically minded, you might skip the technology section, which is where Infor showcases innovation in business applications. In the opening keynote at the event I attended, Stephan Scholl and Duncan Angove, co-presidents of Infor, highlighted this in a dramatic way. They made it clear that Infor wants to open up a new order for business applications in which applications are much easier to use, the architecture takes full advantage of the Internet and other new ways of working, and mobile, social and analytics technologies come together to improve collaboration across the enterprise, generate better customer engagement, and enable better-informed decisions based on all available data. From what I saw and heard, the latest version of its products, Infor 10x, delivers on many of these promises. It all starts with the user interface, which makes the products easier to use and thus more likely to be adopted and accepted. Our business technology innovation benchmark research shows that this is a critical factor: Usability is the primary factor impacting organizational decisions on software purchases. Infor sees that devices such as smartphones and tablets have changed the way almost everyone expects to access applications and information, and indeed what we expect applications to do; on the consumer side this includes a well-defined set of tasks such as paying bills, finding locations, and comparing prices of products. And people are carrying those expectations into what they expect of business applications; in this context hierarchical lists, screens full of irrelevant data fields, navigation across multiple screens to complete a simple task, and having to search for information and metrics are unacceptable. Users want to point and click to find and access different functions, data and information, they want to see only relevant information, and many of them don’t think in terms of end-to-end processes any more but want to focus on a well-defined task such as create new customer, close an opportunity or schedule a meeting. In this context Infor has created Hook & Loop, its “internal creative agency,” which I believe is a radical but sensible way to redesign the user experience. The team doesn’t include typical software engineers but rather people who look at computing from a user perspective and create a user experience that matches those expectations. Then the software engineers get involved to turn these concepts into a user interface. This is the sort of approach I suggest to companies in designing mobile apps or virtual agent scripts. In both cases it is a big mistake to have internal business users and IT design them; they should enlist customers in the design and respond to their demands. (Maybe if companies took the same approach with their IVR and Web self-service systems, those would be more successful.) In Infor’s case, I was impressed by the new user experience and look forward to seeing it develop further. Infor is developing individual applications on ION, which it describes as a “purpose-built middleware platform.” ION is in essence a software suite that enables integration, both for Infor applications and third-party systems. The concept is straightforward: If you define a common format for inbound and outbound transactions and events and build applications and interfaces that conform to those definitions, transactions and data can flow from one to component to another without much development effort. Such a platform enables different operational applications to be integrated, eases administration and creates a scalable, distributed architecture. Transactions can be routed based on built-in rules, allowing, for example, data to be routed to Infor’s analytics tools so users can create analyses, reports and dashboards. The rules can also be programmed to spot exceptions and thus raise alerts in another system; for example, if a machine generates readings indicating a possible impending breakdown, an engineer will be told to take a closer look at it. The reinvention of business applications continues with another product called Ming.le. Like certain other vendors, Infor positions this as its product to support social business, which is a classification I don’t believe in. Nevertheless Ming.leprovides Facebook-like capabilities that help employees collaborate using wall-based discussions, share information and raise actions. Our research consistently shows that organizational silos are one of the biggest barriers to providing customers with superior service and experiences, and greater collaboration is a way to break them down. Viewed from that perspective,Ming.le met my expectations and so I recommend that companies evaluate it, to improve not just customer service but all customer-focused activities. The final piece of technology I saw was Infor Motion. It supports mobility in two ways, by providing employees with access to systems and information on the move and by providing a platform on which to build mobile customer service apps. In the latter case, Infor has created a service similar to Hook & Loop that works with organizations to design mobile apps that will appeal to customers and again drive greater adoption and use. Addressing the audience at the road show, Peter and Duncan were adamant that they will continue to enhance all product lines and support all their micro-vertical products (customized versions of the applications to support granular vertical business sections, for example not just transportation but businesses in different type of transportation). All products, including the micro-verticals, will be available for deployment on premises, in the cloud or in a hybrid environment. Commitment to the last is re-enforced by packaged pricing and services intended to make it attractive for old and new customers to move to the cloud. It was clear to me that Infor has added customer engagement to traditional CRM in its portfolio. It continues to develop an application called Customer Interaction Hub. This brings together the marketing products, CRM, Interaction Advisor, ION, Ming.le and an interaction data store to support multichannel engagement. Interaction Advisor is the key to this packaged solution as it uses customer and interaction data and rules-based logic to determine the best response, which might be the best up-sell offer, personalized responses or putting the response into the context of the overall customer relationship. It was built for the financial services and telecommunications industries, but as customer experience management becomes the focal point for more companies, I expect to see it extended into other industries. All together this is an ambitious program; Infor seems to be succeeding with it because its financial results have improved, numbers of customers have grown and the company is adding internal resources. The Infor 10x product release addresses all the six innovative technologies our business technology innovation benchmark shows are important to companies. For my research practice the new user experience and the customer information hub are most significant. For as long as I can remember companies, consultants and analysts have derided CRM for not delivering to companies’ expectations. This has had a lot to do with complexity of use and functionality not focused on the customer and the customer experience. Infor is addressing both issues, so I will watch it more closely in the future, and I recommend you do, too. Regards, Richard J.

Big data, perhaps because it is a more technical concept, ranked fifth, with 11 percent of organizations calling it a top innovation priority. But in this time of global business, nonstop communications and fierce competition, more organizations are finding that big data and analytics together can help them cope with constant change. They can help organizations face imperatives such as increasing time-to-value and becoming more agile and adaptive. Using them properly can increase the potential for competitive advantage in business in various ways. For example, customer analytics, on which we have conducted benchmark research, is changing with access to new sources of information. In telecommunications, for instance, call detail records, which contain enormous amounts of data, are being sifted and combined with customer records to determine things such as quality of service at the individual level. These sources can be combined with various others to help determine a customer’s value and propensity to churn. Machine learning can then be applied to figure out the best action to prevent churn at a cost commensurate with the value of the customer. Attribution modeling is changing as well with big data, especially since online tracking is no longer dominated by cookies and users need to join online and offline channels. Human capital analytics, on which we recently released new benchmark research, is a hot area as well. It includes analytics in the area of talent management, which is concerned with salaried (rather than hourly) employees and hard-to-find skill sets. It focuses on things like recruitment, career paths, retention and the entire employment life cycle (often beyond a single organization). Human capital analytics also includes workforce management, which uses big data and analytics to optimize scheduling and resource allocation and to match skills to particular tasks. Another area, operational analytics, often focuses on efficiency and can have a great impact on customer service through improvements in delivery times, system responsiveness or predicting outages before they occur. In the area of governance, risk and compliance, things such as fraud detection and system and network management, cybersecurity and portfolio risk all can be addressed using some form of big data and analytics. New information and new technology are impacting almost every industry and every function, but in different ways and at different speeds. For instance, healthcare and banking are driven more than others by risk management and regulatory compliance, whereas services such as retail are driven more by sales, and manufacturing is driven more by efficiency and cost containment. Retail is facing a great deal of discontinuity as e-commerce, and in particular Amazon, have forced established retailers to completely rethink their strategies. This discussion is not complete without addressing the impact of big data and analytics on organizations’ people, processes and culture, which is a particular topic of my current research. We are seeing in all our research more empowerment of business users and business analysts. This is being driven by a number of internal factors such as industry competition but also by the ability of business users to rent applications from the cloud without incurring significant capital expenses and being dependent on their IT groups. Until recently IT chose new tools and provisioned a company standard, but that is less true today. From an information and insights perspective, now the power lies with who owns the analytic agenda rather than the technology agenda, and the analytic agenda is owned by those with the most business savvy. At the same time, we see a people challenge, which according to our big data benchmark research, manifests in the top two challenges to big data analytics: staffing (for 79% of organizations) and training (for 77%). Organizations have trouble finding qualified professionals to manage big data and providing training to those already on board. The finance department and other numbers-oriented functions, which have much of the analytic talent, are starting to exert influence in less analytically savvy parts of the organization such as human resources and marketing. Since having a complete view of the customer is vital today, the marketing organization is a candidate for big data initiatives, but only if the team is analytically savvy and can take advantage of new sources of information and new technologies. Otherwise, Finance or IT will ultimately lead the new analytic efforts of the organization. There is an interesting dynamic occurring here. Finance and IT are natural allies in that both are numbers- and tools-oriented. Since the 1990s they have led adoption and use of enterprise technologies such as ERP and business intelligence. The marketing department has had a different orientation, but the strength of marketing is its ability to produce top-line revenue by understanding and influencing the customer. I expect that when these forces come together and cross-pollinate the organization, we will start to see a real transformation in 21st century business. As with many other trends, in their enthusiasm people offer big data as the answer to every question. I heard a great one-liner the other day: “If you are a bartender running low on gin, there’s no need to worry about big data.” I like this because it refocuses the discussion to look first at the business problems organizations are trying to solve and the data later. I’ve written a few pieces trying to add some structure to how to think about big data analytics such as four pillars of big data analytics and moving from the technologically oriented big data Vs to the business focused Ws. As well my colleague Mark Smith has written about four types of discovery technology, an area that is critical to exploring the data that is becoming so abundant. Hopefully, these frameworks and approaches can help companies think through the challenges around big data and analytics and the transformation that ensues.

At the time Zeacom’s main selling points were support for multiple channels of communication and integration with Lync, Microsoft’s unified communications software. Now the acquisition is complete (although Zeacom still seems to operate on a fairly autonomous basis), and I learned during a recent briefing that the latest release of its Zeacom Communication Center 7.0 product takes advantage of closer integration with Enghouse Interactive products and includes some important new capabilities. For one, it provides tighter integration with the Enghouse Interactive Quality Monitoring Suite, adding call recording, interaction capture and agent quality monitoring to the suite’s overall capabilities. It also includes ZCC Survey, which enables companies to ask customers to participate in a survey after interacting with an agent. Alongside these functional improvements, Zeacom has improved the technical side of the product with greater reliability, redundancy and scalability, and added features for integration with Lync and more intelligent email queuing and routing. However, its main investments have been in a new user interface. The product includes an agent desktop that helps call center agents (in-house or remote) or any other users access other applications in the suite and to external business applications. Zeacom also introduced TouchPoint, which is designed to radically alter the user experience for agents, other users and supervisors. Zeacom recognizes that consumers now expect a user interface that matches their experience using smartphones and tablets. In this context, it developed TouchPoint based on observing how agents and supervisors use their current desktops, more than 15 years of feedback about the current Zeacom desktop, and advances in the user interface supported by other vendors, devices and applications such as mobile apps. It aims to bring the user interface into the new world by minimizing the number of “touches” required to complete a task, making each user’s experience personal and intuitive, making response context-sensitive, and making the interface easier to configure for different uses and users. According to my research into the agent desktop, usability is the top priority for companies seeking to improve the agent experience. Moreover, it shows that a cumbersome desktop can impact agent satisfaction, which can damage agent performance. For example, very satisfied agents twice as often match targets for CSAT, NPS and CES as agents who are dissatisfied. In addition, an intuitive desktop allows more employees to handle interactions, improves collaboration and, most important, helps reduce average call-handling times. From the early demonstration I saw, Zeacom is going down the right path, but there is still work to be done to meet increasing user demands. All of my recent research shows that companies now have to support multiple channels of customer interaction. This typically makes the desktop even more complex. If companies don’t take action to simplify it, they are likely to see a negative impact on agent and customer satisfaction, and on overall interaction-handling performance. Zeacom is one of a few vendors that support multiple channels and a unified desktop, which places it in a good position to compete with the other vendors I discussed in commenting on the recent U.K. Call Centre Expo. The pressure is on for companies to improve the agent’s experience and the multichannel customer experience, so I recommend that companies evaluate the latest products from Zeacom.

Exterro has made its reputation in e-discovery workflow and legal holds management while Informatica is a leader in data integration that our Value Index finds as the top and Hot rated provider. The partnership is designed to provide users of Exterro’s Fusion E-Discovery software with a single point of control for organizing and managing legal and preservation holds (that is, preventing electronic data from alteration or deletion) of unstructured and structured data that are held in Informatica’s Data Archive. Informatica specializes in the efficient management of information assets, which our benchmark research shows is not easy for most organizations to do because they have data spread across multiple applications and systems: Two-thirds of organizations said that this makes it difficult to manage information. By consolidating in a single repository the storage of information that is likely to be the subject of discovery, companies can simplify and cut the cost of the search process as well as reduce risk. Orchestrating legal and preservation holds can be complex since multiple people or groups within a company may be legally involved with the same data over an extended period of time. Moreover, it’s important to ensure that once the holds are no longer needed, all data that can be eliminated is eliminated. This situation brings to light an increasingly sensitive predicament for many businesses. Corporations are required by law to retain records for a given period. These times differ from one jurisdiction to the next and vary according to the type of information in the records. For example, retention periods for general business matters tends to be the shortest, while information related to pharmaceuticals and radioactive materials require long retention. Traceability – the ability to determine and verify the history, use or location of an item and its constituent parts across an entire supply chain – is a fixture in some in some businesses such as those providing critical materials used in aerospace parts and to an increasing extent food. Failure to preserve data or to be able to produce it a timely fashion can lead to heavy fines or expensive judgments. The flip side to retention is that corporations must take care to delete records that no longer have business value and are not required to be retained, since even innocent items can pose a needless threat in litigation and add to the cost of maintaining and finding information. Once mainly an issue in the United States, the increasing volume of litigation worldwide and ever expanding regulation of businesses has expanded the breadth and amount of information that parties may have to produce in the discovery phase of litigation and regulatory actions. Along with this trend, e-discovery has grown exponentially in importance as more and more of everyday business is captured in electronic systems. Hence the need for software to manage the e-discovery process and the underlying data. A great deal of the information needed for e-discovery is unstructured – documents and email are particularly common. But especially in financial services, information contained in structured databases also is important. Banks, brokers/dealers and insurance companies all generate a considerable amount of structured data related to operations that can be subject to discovery. The volumes of data that are exposed to discovery continue to grow in lockstep with the growth of data created by today’s IT systems. Law and regulation by the book prescribe processes that must be managed and documented carefully. Workflows handle processes affect the efficiency with which discovery management is executed. Legal holds require tagging of documents that have to be available in the discovery process to ensure that they are not inadvertently removed or deleted from a repository. For example, if a set of transactions and related email messages are germane to a regulatory action, they must be preserved until the issue is resolved, regardless of whether under ordinary circumstances they would be destroyed because their legally defined retention period had expired. Exterro’s Fusion E-Discovery Suite incorporates the necessary capabilities as well as data mapping and data management to make processing records efficient. Exterro competes with IBM and Hewlett Packard/Autonomy, among others, in the e-discovery market. It positions itself as providing a more open portal than the others, enabling customers to have greater freedom to decide where the data is held. The company will benefit from the new partnership by having tight integration with a key information storage provider. Informatica for its part has acquired another important use case that provides durable value to its existing and prospective customers. Companies – especially their legal departments – often fail to recognize the negative impact that poor data management has on their ability to execute consistently and efficiently. Usually, they recognize they have a problem only after an expensive or embarrassing failure. It’s important that organizations regularly review their data assets and data management practices to determine where they can be a source of failure or inefficiency and address these issues immediately. They should consider how Exterro and Informatica can help them reduce a potentially dangerous risk exposure that our research confirms that over half (51%) of organizations indicate as their top ranked concern in governance, risk and compliance.

This new release adds capabilities for labor planning and expense management as well profitability modeling and analysis. These two areas of planning and analysis are common to all businesses. The new release adds features that enhance the software’s ability to do sales forecasting, initiative planning and IT department planning. The company continues to refine its modeling capabilities to make it easier for people engaged in the planning process to translate their expectations and concerns into a quantified view of the future. For example, users now can build models using natural-language modeling. The objective is to eliminate the need for help from business analysts or experts trained in the use of a tool and immersed the details of the IT plumbing, such as the metadata used for specific general ledger accounts or operational data. The Tidemark product fits into our business planning software category. It enables rapid creation and frequent updating of company plans by connecting the individual plans of business units in a unified view. It has workflows to manage periodic updates to an integrated plan and analytics to support the planning and review phases of the process. It offers engaging visualization and reporting functionality that enhances understanding and insight in developing plans as well as communicating results. It has built-in social collaboration capabilities in context because business planning requires collaboration. Direct integration of individual business unit plans is a key capability of business planning software because it promotes coordination across a corporation. Companies in our research that plan using summarized business data much more often reported a lack of coordination than those that directly link their plan details: 27 percent of those that summarize data experience a lack of coordination in reacting to changing business conditions, compared to just 7 percent of those with direct links. As well, to facilitate planning among today’s dispersed organizations, Tidemark’s mobile capabilities support sharing plan creation and review on such devices. One distinctive aspect of dedicated business planning is that it handles the operational and financial aspects of a plan in parallel. Traditionally, a budget-focused planning process conflates the two to produce a financial plan. Financial planning (budgeting) and operational planning have fundamentally different objectives, but they must be connected. Budgeting is about financial control; it’s about not failing. Planning aims at finding the best way to succeed. You can’t budget effectively without a plan, and you can’t plan effectively unless you consider fiscal constraints. But the two shouldn’t be homogenized, which is the way almost all companies do planning and budgeting today. Business planning software enables executives and managers to understand both the operational and the financial consequences of their actions, but it emphasizes the things that the various parts of the business focus on, such as units sold, sales calls made, the number and types of employees required or customers served. The business planning category has emerged in response to the growing sophistication of users, especially as baby boomers are replaced by generations of workers who have more demanding expectations of how software should work. Complementing this trend are improved technologies, which already are having an impact on how companies do business planning and forecasting. The cumulative effect of a decade of advances have brought traditional processes to a turning point that will profoundly change how businesses look to the future and decide their courses of action. Tidemark was founded to produce technology to help organizations increase insight, accountability and agility by addressing the shortcomings of using budgeting as a management tool, especially when it is performed using desktop spreadsheets. The user experience figures heavily in Tidemark’s design. It enable individuals to configure the applications to work the way they want them to in the context of the business, adapting processes, data collection and information presentations to meet the specific requirements of an organization. User interfaces follow this pattern. Collaboration, for example, is set up to understand which individuals the user will interact with in a particular context. As the user moves from task to task, that list will change. This capability is consistent with what I expect to become the norm in social collaboration in enterprise applications. Tidemark’s competitive strategy is to push as much as possible of the planning process out to individual business users. The objective is to collect all relevant information in a context that helps a business unit plan and execute better while giving executives an integrated view of the individual plans. Devolving the modeling process and automating data movements and aggregations allows those in the financial planning and analysis (FP&A) function to devote more time and thought to the analytical aspects of their work, something I call “putting the A back in FP&A.” To do this, Tidemark aims to facilitate the process of translating managers’ thoughts and expectations into models that enhance the value of the forward-looking information they can provide senior executives. This approach also promotes greater accountability because the outcome is the business unit’s plan, not allowing users to think of it as the finance department’s budget. Tidemark also places configuration and modeling into the hands of the users. Different parts of the business plan in different ways, and this differs between businesses. Moreover, as business and economic conditions change, the planning process must adapt in ways that suit the needs of those doing the planning. Tidemark’s main competitor today is the status quo. Companies continue to use their budgeting process as a proxy for integrated business planning, which is only indirectly supported by individual business unit plans. This market is dominated by desktop spreadsheets and range of mostly legacy financial performance management (FPM) software, which includes dedicated planning applications from large vendors as well as smaller ones along with cloud-based vendors. Tidemark is changing the conversation from a finance-centric approach to one that support planning operations and finance in parallel – in short, business planning. Companies that are dissatisfied with their current approach to business planning and are looking to improve what our research finds in a third to almost half of organizations as important like accuracy, insight, speed and alignment of their business planning should consider business planning. When they do, they should consider the kind of software that will enable them to support a better process. We recommend that they include Tidemark in their evaluation.
