BOARD provides a complete Visual Modeling environment to create sophisticated models for the allocation of costs and revenues, generating detailed views of company profitability and optimizing pricing, product inventory, bundling and commercial policies.
Thanks to the multi-dimensional logic, costs and revenues can be calculated at the lowest level of detail and automatically distributed by aggregation to different objects, allowing immediate association of several analysis perspectives (e.g. highlighting product earnings in relation to a specific customer).
In this way, in addition to the traditional margins by customer and product, BOARD makes it possible to calculate profitability at various levels of hierarchy and drill-up and drill-down to aggregate and disaggregate data for each analytical or reporting dimension.
The multi-dimensional what-if and goal seeking capabilities make it possible to test hypothetical scenarios to verify the potential impact of future events or new business strategies, providing a powerful tool for simulating and optimizing corporate profitability.
In addition to offering multi-dimensional and simulation capabilities, BOARD stands out from conventional cost controlling solutions for its ability to integrate margin analyses with the processes of Budgeting, Planning and Forecasting, providing control of the future economic performance of the entire organisation.
Key features
- Visual, flexible and multidimensional modeling environment
- Single integrated framework for support, control and management of Performance Management processes including ABC, profitability analysis, planning, budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and score-carding
- Support for all activity-based costing methodologies, including bottom-up, consumption-driven ABC
- Simultaneous multi-user read and write access to each model
- Unlimited scenarios, activities, cost drivers and cost objects to build even the most complex models
