Strengths and Cautions - Infor Performance Management
Strengths
•Infor's CPM suite has particular strengths in strategy management and BP&F. The latest release, Infor PM 10.1, supports the Infor Open SOA to increase back-end interoperability and front-end information delivery through the newly announced clients Infor MyDay (role-based portals) and Infor Decisions (ad hoc analysis). This will enhance its capability to compete in large, global CPM deals and integrate CPM with more of the Infor product family.
•Infor has again made good progress on previous CPM and financial-management road map announcements by delivering Infor PM 10.1 and the new, low-priced midmarket planning offering (Infor PM Business Edition, released in August 2008), financial reporting using XBRL tagging support has been added to Infor PM Office Plus (Excel add-in), and there are longer-term plans to tag data for XBRL within the applications. Other planned enhancements are to support Linux and Unix environments.
•Infor has a large installed base (approximately 70,000 customers) using its transactional applications in the midmarket and enterprise space, which are ideal target markets for its CPM solutions. Infor cites more than 3,000 PM customers, and has a widespread global customer base with products available in multiple languages. With Infor PM 10 and Infor PM Business Edition, there is plenty of potential to further cross-sell and penetrate net new accounts.
•Infor has again seen steady growth during the past year in CPM sales with its enterprise solution Infor PM 10. Infor has integrated its CPM and BI capabilities, enabling customers to deliver a unified BI and PM framework, renaming the former MIS components Infor PM Application Studio (Web client), Infor PM OLAP (analytic engine) and Infor PM Office Plus (Excel add-in).
Cautions
•Infor has made an effort during the past year to raise awareness of its PM portfolio through influencers and direct marketing to customers; however, awareness remains relatively low. This will limit its ability to compete for new business outside its installed base, unless it can build greater awareness.
•Lack of awareness of the Infor PM brand is a challenge in the firm's installed base. Many customers are unaware that Infor offers a CPM solution, or that the CPM products they use are owned by Infor. Consequently, customers may look elsewhere, and installations could be replaced without Infor being invited to bid, owing purely to a lack of awareness.
•Infor faces tough competition, and has yet to prove that it can gain wide acceptance with IT and finance departments in preference over CPM offerings from the other large vendors.
•Infor has had challenges to best locate PM and has reorganized its sales force several times, between central teams and separate business units. The company has spent a lot of time training the generic sales force to understand where CPM fits, and now has a central PM sales team in Americas and a PM center of excellence in EMEA.

Powerful Consolidation Application
Extensity is now part of Infor.
Visit the Infor site to learn how Infor software will make a difference in business today.
Infor recognize that different organizations require different consolidation solutions, depending on their financial and IT structures. In addition to performance management financial consolidation functionality, built on a centralized architecture, Infor offer FDC, a powerful consolidation application designed for businesses that have autonomous reporting units and/or subsidiaries. FDC uses a distributed application architecture in which each reporting site has its own database, for local data ownership and maximum flexibility. Each unit within the organization can perform sub-consolidations and produce their own financial statements in different GAAP formats, according to local requirements.
FDC streamlines consolidation and reporting so that managers have more time spend on analysis and strategic planning. It automates consolidation from multiple locations, in multiple general ledgers and charts of account, and in multiple currencies.
FDC has been architected to deliver all your reporting requirements. This includes management, legal, statutory, and regulatory reporting requirements from a local and global perspective, incorporating support for International Accounting Standards (IAS), US GAAP, Canadian GAAP, UK GAAP, FASB, and more.
With FDC you can:
Collect data quickly from multiple general ledgers and multiple charts of account
Allow remote sites to extend the application for local reporting without impacting the group application
Support local and multiple base currency reporting
Consolidate multiple hierarchies (legal, management, etc.) and multiple versions of the same structure
Match intercompany account activity at the appropriate rate and report discrepancies
Carry out automated adjustments including minority, inter-company, recurring, and miscellaneous
Keep a complete audit trail of all adjustments and journal entries which can be interrogated by the pre-built reports
Architecture and Technology:
FDC is a distributed solution in which each remote site maintains its own Pervasive SQL 2000 Server database. Within each site, all data is stored in a secure, central relational database, eliminating errors due to data duplication and transfer. FDC was created specially for finance professionals and requires only minimal IT involvement to implement and maintain. A code-free web interface simplifies data entry, so finance staff can add and delete accounts, change organizational structure and perform ad hoc analysis as required. The application is completely menu and form driven, eliminating the need to create complex macros or assemble logic files. FDC can be delivered across an entire organization through either a LAN or the web.
Three optional modules are available to enhance the value of FDC:
Planning - For carrying out 'What If" analyses, evaluating financial plans, and setting top-down targets
FDC Web Workstation - For delivering end user reports and analyses via a web browser. This module allows end-users to create and save their own analyses without the need of IT/Finance staff support.
Production Reporting - For automatic production and delivery of formal reports to users in a variety of formats.
