13 Enterprise Performance Management Comparison Business Intelligence vs. Enterprise Performance Management Business Intelligence Able to access data natively ( Leave in Place = less work) Data is in a single repository (Subtotaling and Straight Rollups) Data is standardized (Utah is always UT) Need real-time results (What is happening now?) Access is open (Everyone who needs to know it) Performance Management Access to data is limited (Data need Collecting ) Combined from multiple sources (Aggregations and Cube Rollups) Data needs transformation (Utah -> UT mapping, adjustments) Processed Weekly, Mthly, Qtrly (What has happened? What will?) Access is controlled (Sensitive, Need to know basis) 13

14 Enterprise Performance Management Comparison MS Excel vs. Enterprise Performance Management Microsoft Excel Access to a Central Database (Able to Query and Refresh) Error Trapping (Formula and Spelling Errors) Limited Dimensionality (Rows, Columns, Tabs, Workbooks) Control of Versions (Who has the latest copy? Where?) Adding a new row? Column? (Good luck adding to every one) Freeform Formula Creation (Every Cell Formula is unique) Performance Management Access to Application Data (Intelligent API Connection/Link) Error Prevention (Referential Application Integrity) Unlimited Named Dimensionality (Products, Customers, Staff, etc) One Version of the Truth (Centralized and controlled) Centralized Maintenance (Dimensions are uniform) Formulas are Rules based (Uniform enforcement of calcs) 14

15 Enterprise Performance Management Comparison 88% of spreadsheets have errors (1) Debt Sustainability Paper by Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff (2) Cause: Excel error inadvertently excluded certain countries causing result to be 0.3 percentage points worse than it should be. Effect: Incorrect conclusion stating once a country gets past 90% on the public debt-to- GDP ratio, the economy will suffer. London Whale Incident at J.P. Morgan (3) Cause: Excel model operated through series of Excel spreadsheets completed manually by copying and pasting data from one spreadsheet to another.
