For many organizations, the annual budgeting process is being replaced for a more frequent forecasting process. This session will present the mechanics of how to convert your annual budget models to become rolling forecasts.
In this web seminar, Howard Dresner will explain the historical context and driving forces behind performance management, how it is different from and complements business intelligence and how it can begin to move the enterprise forward through the establishment of a more modern "management system."
Following Dresner's presentation, Data Management Group will illustrate how to put enterprise performance management into action. Bernie Akporiaye will describe how rolling forecasts work and review some of the tools available in the market. He will also present a demo on how those tools can be used to pull in actuals to wherever you are in the year and easily forecast the remainder of the year. Topics that will be covered include:
- Creating the right global assumption layouts
- Setting up the correct template formats
- Using advanced interface codes
This web seminar is for finance executives involved with budgeting, planning, forecasting and financial reporting processes.
Five random attendees will receive copies of Howard Dresner's upcoming book entitled, The Performance Management Revolution: Business Results Through Insight and Action (John Wiley & Sons).
