Scenario Management allows organizations to assess the impact of alternatives on financials, resources, customers, risks and other key metrics. Without it, simple questions like "What if certain operations were discontinued?", "What is the effect of a new product introduction?", and "What will happen if interest rates change?" are difficult to answer.

Global 2000 companies spend hundreds of millions annually on analytical tools, but few have the ability to assess the impact of critical decisions before they are made. Virtual Strategy enables you to analyze your entire operation on an up-to-the-minute basis as business demands dictate. Scenarios such as profit and loss, mergers and acquisitions, and forward-looking program management are now possible in a drag-and-drop interface.

Create and manage initiatives, setting strategic indicators and assigning risks and resources. Then use Excel-compatible scorecards to link your program to the enterprise model to utilize your actual data for more accurate cost and cash flow analysis. Make edits to programs and watch the changes on interactive scoreboards that can be broadcast across a network for collaborative sessions and board meetings. Then, as programs begin, load in the actual returns to accurately assess performance and profitability.
