Brisbane, Australia – February 25, 2010 – myDIALS, the leader in SaaS performance management, today announced it has partnered with Melbourne-headquartered Epago Group, a company specialising in delivering integrated sourcing solutions across all indirect commodities to both SME and large enterprise organisations.
The partnership with myDIALS will enable Epago Group to bolster its procurement offering while focusing on one of their specialty areas of local, regional and global corporate travel management. Epago Group provides corporate travel customers with the myDIALS Software as a Service dashboard which will offers real-time visibility into travel procurement spend, supplier contract operational performance and traveller buying behaviour.
Mario Kalogiannis, Partner, Epago Group, said, “There has been a real ‘wow’ factor with the release of our dashboards, this was our intention at Epago Group, we pride ourselves on delivering and leading cost-saving and process improving solutions for our clients. We sought out myDials and developed the travel dashboard with them as they are a like minded organisation and are a perfect fit for Epago. This partnering will enable us to provide procurement, business and finance managers with a extremely cost effective 360 degree view of their travel spend thereby helping them reduce spend and manage supply arrangements, resulting in immediate and timely actions and more importantly deliver results.”
Specifically, Epago Group will market and reference sell myDIALS as an integrated add-on to its overall service offering clients the ability to quantify the implications of travel spend scenarios and compare the true business impact of potential inefficiencies in the travel supply chain. As dashboards can be created for all procurement categories Epago Group will progressively offer or specifically develop an extended suite of dashboards to enable similar metric management across other categories.
The myDIALS SaaS-based solution delivers on the promise of true continuous improvement with an Operational Performance Optimisation solution that enables companies to constantly monitor performance, identify and characterise performance problems, make rapid decisions and take corrective action to fix issues.
At the same time, Epago’s clients will be able to create a structure using myDIALS in which management have the resources to mine the data, generate hypotheses, test their ideas, and produce reports and analytics. Dashboard reports will ensure that relevant information is delivered to each decision maker based on their specific role and scope of authority with automated metric updates occurring immediately as the data itself changes. Users can also easily “drill into” the performance metrics to obtain additional detail and identify the root cause of issues.
Jeremy Bolton, Asia Pacific Managing Director, myDIALS, said, “Interest in cloud-based performance management focused BI solutions is growing every day, as more and more organisations are beginning to understand the benefits of providing employees with the information they need to make better, fact-based decisions more quickly.
“Epago Group understands the advantage of the new operational BI capabilities that cloud computing delivers. In addition, the company has strong procurement and market knowledge, extensive market contacts and applies a practical business approach to its activities. This approach, blended with its blue chip company management background makes them an ideal partner for myDIALS. We look forward to sharing the combined deep technical expertise and industry capabilities of myDIALS and Epago with customers looking to drive and maximise their investment in travel procurement and comply with budget parameters.”
