Pitchmap is a software application that helps you to create financial business case to support your compelling vision. Coupled with your particular area of expertise, it builds a map of the new or improved process you have in mind. Then, it produces the business case required for your funding. Pitchmap recognises that, while a business case needs to set out an accurate view of the present and an achievable view of the future, it is also a sales document. It’s easy to use, easy to understand, and provides a high-quality, professional document ready to present to the decision-makers.
The table below shows typical output from Pitchmap. It shows the As Is cost and To Be cost for a procure to pay process. It shows that the company can expect to reduce processing costs by $3.4M per annum. The difference between ABC Co. As Is and ABC Co. To Be represents the financial justification for the business case.
Pitchmap builds this picture by collecting transaction volume and time information for each step in the process. The process steps are selected from a pre-defined list of process steps for each different type of process. For example, Help Desk Ticketing processes have different steps than Procure to Pay processes. It is this standardised manner of collecting process step data that enables Pitchmap to compare processes across companies or across scenarios.
In addition to displaying summary data, Pitchmap also displays a detailed breakdown of transaction costs to assist in identifying which parts of the processes affords the greatest opportunity for improvement.
After comparing processes, Pitchmap allows you to enter project cost information and see the ROI expected from the project.
