Realizing Value Series: Cost Reduction Scenario

How does your companys profitability compare to your competitors? We will show you how to use Information on Demand to compare your key financial data with that of your competitors Which of your products have a profitability level lower than your competitors? We will show you how to create a report that uses web services to connect this external benchmark data with product level data from your ERP systems in a single report showing you which of your products have a profitability lower than the average of each of your competitors How can you empower your production and inventory managers with the information they need to execute on your cost of goods reduction goals? We will show you how to build a report gathering production costs data from the appropriate ERP systems and then build an interactive Xcelsius dashboard with 'what-if' visualization capabilities to explore alternatives How can you manage these changes and track whether you are successful? We will show you how to use SAP Strategy Management (SSM) to create the Objective, enact Initiatives and set KPIs for monitoring your progress What risks do you encounter in adapting these alternatives? We will show you how to use SAP GRC Risk Management to capture and mitigate this risk How can you provide information to managers to be more proactive to anticipate and alleviate issues before they grow? We will show you how to build a report that hits the appropriate ERP data and sends an alert for 'light' deliveries from a key supplier
