This diploma thesis is devoted to comparison of analytical performance tools for visual data analysis in the context of Business Intelligence and Corporate Performance Management. The first part of the thesis is devoted to a description of Business Intelligence concept, which could be used as a source for gaining input data for analysis, its components and architecture. The next part is an analyzed concept of Corporate Performance Management, its single components, and the impact of using analytical tools for key management decisions. The theoretical part of the thesis will be based on the synthesis. The theoretical part of the thesis will be based on the synthesis of knowledge gained by studying specialized literature and professional articles. The practical part of this diploma thesis will be focused on testing of selected analytical tools based on metrics in CPM agendas. In this thesis the functionality of the tools will be explored, focused on the creation and presentation of the dashboards for the preparing foundation for the managerial decision-making. For the objective of comparing these tools a methodology, which will evaluate selected analytical tools based on relevant criteria and weightings will be defined. The main contribution of this diploma thesis is the result of the analysis of the comparison of the main possibilities of analytical instruments with the leading position on the global market.

This diploma thesis is focused on designing a prototype Business Intelligence solution for a company operating in financial markets. The company does not possess a full-scaled system for measuring enterprise performance and performs this task by the means of manual data collection. The current system is not sufficient for covering the growing number of the com-pany's dealings. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with introducing basic principles of Enterprise Per-formance Management, Balanced Scorecard and, subsequently, Business Intelligence. The practical part covers the defined strategic goals of the company using the Balanced Sco-recard method. The discovered strategic goals are transposed into a strategic map. Metrics for measuring these goals are assigned to them. Only some of the goals are chosen for the implementation of the Business Intelligence solution. Source data for assessing the reached values are defined for the given indicators. Data from the data source were transposed into the data hub. Subsequently, an OLAP cube connected to a reporting tool for displaying the calculated metrics is created.

This Diploma thesis focuses on the alignment of regulatory processes to support corporate performance management in the selected retail company. The main objective is the preparation of process maps that serve as a basis for the implementation of a global standard for automatic exchange of financial account information, developed by the OECD, also called as Common Reporting Standard. Additionally, the partial objectives include analysis of existing forms of content-related processes, creating a methodological support to the created processes and the theoretical concepts of regulatory requirements. The theoretical part focuses on the introduction of concepts related to the corporate management performance and also on theory about specific regulatory regulation used. In the practical part is an analysis of the company through the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), followed by the actual design and process description. The main contribution of the Diploma thesis was to perform process optimization, along with some improvements during the creation of these processes. The company will use the outcomes in practice.

This thesis is devoted to the modern management concept of Corporate Performance Management (CPM, enterprise performance management) and its implementation in selected small company. The first part focuses on the description of the concept of CPM and its individual components (processes, methodologies, metrics and applications). The theoretical part also deals with selected implementation procedures and available CPM maturity models. In the second part a particular small company is introduced to the reader, together with its activities, organizational structure and the reasons behind their interest in CPM. It is then followed by an analysis of the company, its CPM maturity and proposed steps for CPM implementation. These steps are based on the framework presented in this work, which was created by combining different approaches to CPM implementation and available CPM maturity model. The third part, devoted to the implementation of CPM, starts with an analysis of the CPM in the cloud market, followed by a review of two selected solutions. To select the appropriate application, a multi-criterion model is created. The description of actual implementation, and evaluation of its results are included in the last chapter.

This thesis is devoted to market with Corporate performance management (CPM) tools. Due to the fact that the area of CPM tools is extensive, the thesis is focused mainly on financial consolidation. One of the goals of this thesis is to describe process of financial consolidation. There are used various consolidation tools today. Therefore, another goal of this thesis is to describe categories of tools and their basic characteristics.. The goals mentioned above are achieved by examining the available recourses and their subsequent connection to the desired whole which describes the consolidation process and categories of tools. The first part addresses the financial consolidation process, followed by commented research of sources, after which there is the part devoted to possible requirements for consolidation tools. The source of requirements is quoted literature and the own experience from the real project. The second part of this thesis is devoted to practical example in which the criteria for evaluation of consolidation tools are defined. There are evaluated two tools -- tool based on MS Excel and CPM tool Oracle Hyperion. The defined criteria are used to describe the difference between tools and to make overall evaluation. The output of this thesis is set of criteria under which are possible to evaluate tools. Another output of the thesis is performed analysis on selected tools. The main contribution of this thesis is created criteria and the process of creation of weights, followed by demonstration of the use of practical example. The criteria are based on the consolidation process and requirements described in theoretical part of the thesis.

The third charter is an introductory part to the practical one because it deals with selected implementation methodology of corporate performance management. This thesis concentrates on two parts within the framework of this methodology -- analysis and proposal. While the fourth chapter characterizes the initial situation and a methodology of collecting of data, the fifth and sixth chapters create a core of this diploma thesis. The fifth chapter, which focuses on the analysis mentioned above, surveys a current state of the parts needed in order to propose CPM and where it is necessary the fifth chapter submits proposals of changes. The sixth chapter creates a complex proposal of CPM in a real environment based on the analysis of current situation in the company and from the proposals of changes. This proposal represents a summary of theoretical knowledge of corporate performance management and the current situation in the telecommunications company.
