Nucleus Research report highlights Board’s ability to help companies with fragmented or siloed data to consolidate operational and financial data into a single unified solution.

Board International, the #1 Decision-Making Platform provider, announced today that the company has been named a Leader in the Nucleus Research 2022 Corporate Performance Management (CPM) Value Matrix for the fifth year running.

Nucleus Research rates the usability and functionality of Corporate Performance Management (CPM) solutions against several criteria. This year’s analyst report highlights the increasing importance of CPM solutions due to the impacts of covid. Historically, businesses have deployed CPM solutions to connect and leverage the data of disparate departments to generate accurate financial forecasts and budgets. Nowadays, businesses are still contending with market shocks and ongoing uncertainty, including new complex regulation, supply disruption, labor shortages and fluctuating demand. In order to survive and remain competitive they must plan and execute on shorter time horizons than ever before, leading to extended leverage of CPM solutions to address the planning activities across HR, marketing, sales, and operations departments.

Key aspects of Board’s all-in-one decision-making solution have been recognized in the report, including its ability to accurately forecast, plan, and build budgeting plans by integrating data from every department, allowing the creation of actionable plans and strategies for sales, operations, and workforce management achieve operational efficiency. Moreover, the report highlights the capability of Board, compared to planning competitors, to handle large volumes of data which ensures scalability and support for large enterprises and seamless integration with data sources like Excel and R, combining Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

“Board International was recognized as a leader based on the broad functionality of the platform’s offering, covering XP&A, FP&A, Consolidation and Close, Lease Accounting, Supply Chain Management, as well as Retail Planning functionality,” said Isaac Gould, Analyst at Nucleus Research. “Board also received high usability scores based on the platform’s flexibility, allowing users to implement solutions that best match their business needs.”

“We are proud to be recognized for the 5th year running as a Leader in the Nucleus Research CPM Technology Value Matrix,” said Marco Limena, CEO of Board International. “Our positioning is testament to the value which Board can bring to leading enterprises right now, by helping leaders to respond to ever-changing market conditions and plan for uncertainty.”
