All rights reserved. 36 Customer Value Management Who is more important to pursue with the scarce resources of our marketing spend budget? Our most profitable customers? Or our most valuable customers? What is the difference? The “customer lifetime value” is intended to answer this question. Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2013 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 37 Imagine you are pharmaceutical supplier. Which Customer is more Important? Dentist A Dentist B Sales = $750,000 Sales = $375,000 profits = $100,000 profits = $40,000 Age 61 Age 25 Which is more profitable? Which is more valuable? Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2013 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 38 BIG TREND #4 … Analytics: Work backwards with the end in mind. Regardless how Business Analytics should be defined, there should be no argument as to its purpose: Better decisions. Better actions. BA’s goal should be to gain insights and solve problems, to make better and quicker decisions with more accurate and fact-based data, and to take actions. Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2013 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 39 Improving Performance by Unifying EPM and BA -- BI Reporting consumes stored information. -- Analytics produces new information. -- Enterprise Performance Management deploys Analytics. It is not about monitoring the dials on a dashboard, but rather moving the dials. Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2012 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 40 Business Analytics automates the “shortcuts” Queries simply answer questions. Business analytics creates questions. Further, analytics then stimulate more questions, more complex questions, and more interesting questions. Most importantly, business analytics also has the power to answer the questions. Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2013 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 41 BIG TREND #5: Debates about Costing Methods Time-Driven ABC (TDABC) is an alternative method for activity drivers … and applies under conditions: • highly repetitive activities, • less interest in indirect expenses, • concerns about unused capacity costs. Lean accounting can co-exist with one or more other costing methods. Be wary of its anti-ABC zealots. Resource consumption accounting (RCA) is justified “if the higher climb is worth a better view.” Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2013 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 42 BIG TREND #6 Managing IT as a business Managing IT as a business is now an imperative. No longer can IT be seen as a technology supplier – it must be seen to be adding value to the organization and providing strategic capability. IT performance management enables IT to become service oriented, aligning itself with the organization to provide internal customerdriven solutions to problems. But … it is difficult to maximize returns from IT when the products and services appear to be free to internal customers.

Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC Copyright 2013 www.garycokins.com Copyright © 2010 SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 48 Why is the adoption rate so slow? What are the barrier categories? (1) Technical barriers include IT related issues. (2) Perception barriers are excess complexity and affordability. (3) Design deficiencies include poor measurements or their calculations and weak models and assumptions. (4) Organizational behavior barriers involve resistance to change, culture, and leadership.
