Filed:

Nov 14, 2001

Appl. No.:

10/002977

Inventors:

David R. Flores - Laguna Beach CA, US
Michael Charles Mente - Buena Park CA, US
James McClymont Stauffer - Corona del Mar CA, US

International Classification:

G06Q 10/00

US Classification:

705 10

Abstract:

An enterprise strategy management system includes a first software module adapted to formulate a strategy description based on an assessment of environmental data, a second software module adapted to align the strategy description with available enterprise resources and deploy strategy implementation responsibilities, and a third software module adapted to measure the execution of the strategy and identify opportunities to optimize strategic performance. The first, second and third software modules are adapted to implement a continuous strategy management cycle, and may be executed in any order. In one embodiment, the first software module is an STRATEGY FORMULATION module, the second software module is an STRATEGY ALIGNMENT module and the third module is an STRATEGY IMPLEMENTATION module. The STRATEGY FORMULATION module includes software components for assessing environmental data, formulating and analyzing strategic alternatives and determining and approving a final, multi-level strategy description. The STRATEGY ALIGNMENT module includes software components for aligning strategy components, describing and aligning operational strategy components, planning projects, initiatives and performance metrics activity, and deploying implementation responsibilities.
