VISUAL INFORMATION DESIGN
Whereas managers of earlier generations were plagued with too little information, decision-makers today are drowning in it. The internet of things and big data are challenging companies to present information so that consumers are able to utilize it. Today, experts including Stephen Few, Edwardt Tufte and Dr. Rolf Hichert have laid the groundwork for modern information design. With visual information design from cubus, you can optimize your reporting based on these principles.
Modern Budgeting
The objective of budgeting today is to significantly improve the planning process by minimizing costs and maximizing benefits. If all aspects of planning are integrated in a single concept and aligned with strategic goals, companies will become more flexible and able to adapt to economic change.
Planning is a highly dynamic process. The key is to keep it:
Simple
Flexible
Integrated
When these three criteria answer how planning should be done, the foundations of modern budgeting are about what shall be planned and on what basis. With cubus outperform you can meet the three criteria as well as implement and comply with the concepts of modern budgeting.
