Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) encompasses processes, methodologies, metrics and technologies that enable enterprises to measure, monitor and manage business performance.
Traditional techniques will need to give way to more customer-centric, operational, and distributed architectures that facilitate high-performance access by end-users and applications across organizational boundaries. While EPM is not considered a technology, it is an integrated data architecture that provides accurate information on a timely basis used to continually monitor and measure progress toward achieving corporate objectives.
