Financial Performance Management in 2022
Corporate performance management (CPM) continues to play a critical role in organizational growth and competitiveness, with the goal of aligning an organization’s strategy and goals with business processes in order to achieve the highest level of performance across strategic, tactical, and operational levels. According to European industry analyst firm BARC, as the age of digitization and globalization continues, companies are waking up to the need for transparency in financial processes in order to achieve efficient management. This transparency requires examining both what has happened in the past as well as anticipating future developments in an organization’s goals and structures. As a result, financial performance management (FPM) serves as one of the central management tasks in an organization at the strategic, tactical, and operational levels.
What is the BARC Score?
The BARC Score is an annual report that ranks vendors based on BARC analyst feedback and assessments for a specific software market against a set of detailed criteria. Vendors are evaluated on two dimensions – “Portfolio Capabilities” and “Market Execution” – and categorized among five segments: Entrants, Specialists, Challengers, Market Leaders, and Dominators.
As depicted in the graphic below, in the 2022 BARC FPM Score report, OneStream is recognized as a Market Leader, with one of the highest rankings for Portfolio Capabilities combined with increasingly strong scores on Market Execution.
