[UKPRwire, Thu Nov 08 2007] Softscape, a leading provider of web-based human capital management software products, today announced that the company is a leader in performance management according to the Ventana Research 2007 Business Intelligence and Performance Management Scorecard – Mid Year Update.

Softscape received an Align category ranking of more than 92 percent and scored in the top 8 overall.
“A lack of alignment between people and processes has hindered performance in today’s organisations and provoked management to demand a sophisticated but easy-to-implement plan for improving strategic and operational performance,” said Mark Smith, chief executive officer and executive vice president of research, Ventana Research. “Softscape offers an effective platform with a broad array of capabilities to help companies direct their workforces toward performance and foster a focus on accountability and cohesiveness through measurement and analysis.”
The Ventana Research Business Intelligence and Performance Management Scorecard is the first industry report to assess software designed for performance management. It evaluates the maturity of software vendors and products and their appropriateness for the methodology and process of performance management. The Scorecard provides a baseline of knowledge that organisations can use to determine the requirements they need to improve performance by aligning business and IT.
“To be successful in today’s extremely competitive business environment, companies must act more efficiently and make effective decisions across their organisations,” said Dave Watkins, chief executive officer, Softscape. “Implementing a comprehensive, integrated solution from Softscape can help maximise the value of human capital by guiding employees to perform to their full potential while offering access to real-time measurement and analysis of their efforts.
