CPM Total Solution
Corporate Performance Management (CPM) is also known as Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) or Business Performance Management (BPM). As defined by Gartner; CPM is a general name for organizational performance monitoring and managing using the related elements of methodology, measurement, process and support systems.
CPM developed to an extensive level in the U.S. to assist organizations to comply with U.S. legislation (Sarbanes-Oxley ). At the same time, demand grew for similar tools to support strategy execution in intensifying global business environments.CPM, as an extended concept for compliance and performance, was quickly adopted by organizations of different scales, industries, and management levels.
Recent development of CPM is deeply influenced by balanced scorecard methodology, and balanced scorecard has become the de facto core idea of CPM.
