Industry: Software

Press Release Summary: Driven to reduce manager workload, this CMMI-focused
industrial automation company, turned to Distributive Management's DataDrill EXPRESS
software a year ago to automate support for its CMMI tasks and the reporting of
performance status at all management levels. Coordinated by an enterprise metrics
group, the EXPRESS performance dashboard deployment now centralizes and standardizes
measurement processes and customized management reporting across an entire business
unit.

Press Release Body: DataDrill EXPRESS supports enterprise performance reporting, the
implementation of aggressive CMMI goals, and quantitative management dashboards at
the project and program levels. "We are pleased with the results our implementation
team has achieved," says Don Baxter, Distributive Management Sales, "working with
the enterprise metrics group to enhance the software and customize integrations and
interfaces to meet the company's specific requirements." Plans are in place to
continue the roll-out over the next 12 months, incorporating additional business
units into the central measurement plan.

By enabling businesses to replace manual, spreadsheet-based performance reporting
with automated data collection, analysis, status dashboards and report generation,
DataDrill EXPRESS lightens the administrative burden of establishing and maintaining
consistent measurement and management reporting. "Making cost-effective, accurate
performance reporting a realistic possibility at all levels across the enterprise is
a true competitive advantage," adds Baxter.
