Revenue Management Dashboard

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server has become the homepage that millions of corporate computer users rely on everyday to access information within their businesses. When SharePoint is combined with corporate business data, it becomes a powerful business intelligence (BI) tool that exposes corporate information not only to executives and analysts, but also to frontline workers that make key business decisions on a daily basis.

Often, the data that these frontline professionals rely on is information about revenue and projected revenue. The MPS Partners Revenue Management Dashboard is a pre-built set of scorecards, reports and data marts that delivers the most critical information through SharePoint.

Rethinking Business Intelligence
Most organizations think about business intelligence in terms of reports. Reports are provided to sales, customer service and field personnel periodically to tell them how they performed in the past. They generally don’t provide insight that will help frontline workers make decisions that affect future performance.

A true revenue management solution provides not only historical data but also insight into where time and energy should be focused in order to maximize performance. In our vision, sales and customer service personnel should be able to go to a single place to find out things such as:

• What orders are being held that if released could drive additional revenue this quarter
• How am I trending against my forecast this month for each of the different product categories I’m responsible for selling
• As a sales executive, who were my top 10 and bottom 10 reps last quarter and who will be the top 10 and bottom 10 next quarter
• How many sales calls on average is it taking to close a sale
• Which of my key customers had an important customer service call in the last 24 hours
