How do you make sure you have the right metrics, how do you know if your organization is culturally ready for a dashboard, how do you ensure that your dashboard will be more actionable than the old executive information systems of the past? All of these questions and more will be answered in an expert webcast on September 27th, at 12:00 noon EDT .

    Business Objects Acquires SRC

     

     

    There have been numerous mergers and acquisitions in the BPM space over the years. However, if your requirements call for a full suite BPM vendor that can provide both the core applications and the necessary tools to extend them, this one is particularly noteworthy. The vendors that can provide all of that are few and far between (Hyperion, Cognos, SAS, and some of the ERP vendors come to mind). This combination adds a new player to that list.
