An SEM application will typically
draw upon a common pool of consistent data from a data warehouse
which is accessible to decision-makers, such as CFOs and strategic
planners, who can then drill down to the level of detail they
require.
Above this data warehouse will be a set of analytical application
systems incorporating such techniques as shareholder value management,
balanced scorecard and activity based management. The potential
of the combination of all these elements is powerful. SAP Strategic
Enterprise Management (SAP SEM) does just that by helping organizations
translate business strategy into everyday, real-life actions throughout
the organization.
