IT CHALLENGE

摘要

Managing mergers is never easy at the best of times, but Mike Krupanszky, assistant general manager of performance measurement at Scotia Capital, says he saw an opportunity to introduce cutting-edge corporate-performance-management (CPM) technology that would help business managers better understand their operations. The bank was undergoing reorganization, merging its corporate-banking and investment-banking groups into one division (Scotia Capital) following a number of acquisitions. "We were bringing together two very disparate processes and trying to form one cohesive back-office group supporting a business line," says Krupanszky. The problem, he says, was forecasting, planning and reporting based on operations that were using different technologies.
