Performance Management
Here's your ideal situation: everybody in your organization sees the decisions they make in the context of the big picture. Each and every decision gets aligned with the good of the overall company. Decisions are not made in isolation because individuals consider more than the positive and negative consequences of their decision on their piece of the organization.
Microsoft Business Intelligence (BI) can help your organization align the decision-making process through three capabilities: monitoring, analytics, and planning. These capabilities are built into Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server 2007, a powerful performance management application that provides you with the infrastructure to link people at all levels of your organization—from executives to individual contributors—to your overall corporate strategy. Office PerformancePoint Server 2007 builds on the familiar Microsoft Office system environment and Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
