Business Performance and Analysis

The Web is streamlining performance management. Rather than having to install (and update) separate applications on desktops throughout your company, an Internet browser provides a convenient and low-cost point of entry for enterprise performance management. The result is greater visibility and faster feedback on how your business is doing.

Crowe Horwath LLP creates unique ways to help organizations monitor success:

• Metrics-based management;
• Decision support systems;
• Planning, budgeting, and forecasting;
• Scorecarding;
• Analytics;
• Data quality; and
• Enterprise reporting.

Healthcare Innovation: Revenue Cycle Analytics
As medical costs continue rising, healthcare organizations are challenged to improve operating performance, enhance patient satisfaction, and optimize the revenue cycle. Crowe stays on top of the detailed regulatory, administrative, and cash-flow issues to develop best-of-class software and process solutions.

Crowe provides revenue-cycle systems consulting services and project management. Our innovative Microsoft® platform solutions in this area include:

• Business intelligence for the revenue cycle;
• Improved workflows for patient-access departments;
• Patient-facing systems (including portals and kiosks); and
• Compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and improved information security.

Crowe Navigator™: Dealership Intelligence
Dealership owners and managers have long been frustrated by “data overload” and delays in consolidating performance information from multiple stores. Crowe Navigator is a Web-based platform that automatically extracts data from dealership management systems, and normalizes the data from multiple systems and versions.

Summary information is presented in a convenient format that makes it easy for high-level executives to make quick comparisons between stores. To understand the “why” behind the numbers, click on the numbers and “drill down,” all the way to the invoice level, for example, to understand why expenses might be running high.

Additional Performance Solutions on the Microsoft Platform
Serving clients in a wide range of industries, Crowe builds performance management solutions on the Microsoft platform. Microsoft Office Business Scorecard Manager and Microsoft SQL Server-related analytical services are two essential building blocks.

Additional Microsoft resources include the .NET Framework, Office PerformancePoint Server, Office SharePoint Server (including Excel® and InfoPath®), SQL Analysis, Reporting and Integration Services, and BizTalk® Server. Reusing these adaptable components enables Crowe to save time and control development costs.
