Rest assured!

Transparency required For certain forms of limited company, a risk management system is mandatory.

Risk identification, assessment, analysis and monitoring

The CP-Risk module helps you to fulfil all transparency requirements regarding risks.

As an entrepreneur, you bear all economic, social and ecological responsibilities towards all stakeholders of your business. Your remit includes identifying risks and putting suitable measures in place to safeguard the future of your company while also complying with the applicable statutory obligations regarding Corporate Governance. The CP-Risk module meets these requirements and helps you deal systematically with all risks. You can therefore face future risks with confidence. CP-Risk takes you through the entire risk management process, from risk identification to a comprehensive risk manual.

Success is no accident!

The portfolio analyses in the CP-Strategy module are indispensable tools for market positioning and similar analyses.

Strategic analyses

The following portfolio types are available:

Does it always seem to be your competitors who are in the lead? Is that just down to luck, or do these

particular companies leave nothing to chance? Successful companies think and act strategically. They have a vision, an objective; they are informed about their fields of business, well aware of their own capabilities and shortcomings and know quite a bit about their rivals as well. With the CP-Strategy module, your company is in a position to work out strategies which are also aligned to external influencing factors, which can be implemented promptly and effectively and which have a long-term perspective.

Put strategies into practice! Enterprise management with vision and strategy Make strategy a core issue and place the tools for success firmly in the hands of your staff with the Balanced Scorecard. Every enterprise has strategic goals and visions. However, in everyday business life, the things which really matter are often neglected in favour of the urgent issues. Staff frequently find the strategic goals set by management difficult to achieve – they may not even be aware of them in the first place. When taken in isolation, financial key indicators such as cash flow or ROI give very little insight into exactly where intervention is needed. How can the strategic goals of the enterprise be visualised, quantified and communicated to every single employee? Incorporate vision and strategy in the operational business process. Combine strategic goals, measurements and actions into a complete, self-contained system. In conjunction with operational management, the Balanced Scorecard can be integrated into your company‘s system of corporate performance management. As an instrument of modern enterprise management, the Balanced Scorecard serves to increase transparency and promote staff communication.
