At Performance Improvement Partners, we preach to our clients that to obtain the highest return on technology investments, you really need to know where you should be going and have a Plan B in case you hit a bump in the road. Planes don’t leave airports without a final destination and emergency landing procedures. Just be diligent; ensure that portfolio company dashboards deliver the needed key metrics rather than like to have or what’s really cutting-edge. In the long run, you will save yourself time, money, and wasted effort.TOPICS: Private equity, equity portfolio management, performance measurement, portfolio management/multi-asset allocation
