PeopleSoft EPM

PeopleSoft's Enterprise Performance Management system is a completely Web-based tool with embedded analytics to give enterprises greater insight into their operations. The inclusion of analytics make evaluating the enterprise a core business practice rather than an afterthought. The software's Balance Scorecard presents key performance indicators to all levels of managers. The company can get a clear picture of all activities and their related revenue and expenses. Enterprise Warehouse combines all of PeopleSoft's internal data with data collected from customers and enables the company to distribute data in large quantities at high rates of speed. As with other PeopleSoft products, the EPM system has a pure Internet architecture that enhances collaboration and reduces the costs associated with deploying software on individual client computers.
