Enterprise Performance Management (EPM), also known as Business Performance Management (BPM), integrates ideas from Performance Management with Business Intelligence and Information Management. An important aspect of EPM is the – real-time – monitoring of actual performance against targets, based on data from the business processes and their outcomes. When organisations apply EPM, ubiquitous availability of real-time (and accurate) performance data would, in principle, allow for more ‘democratic’ or empowering control approaches to be employed. This would not just free up management time and make organisations more responsive, it would also respond to long-standing calls to curtail the use of formal, centralised management control approaches. Do EPM Systems in practice really change management control towards more democratic methods?
