Salient's Value-Scoring Framework


Our ability to create large and diverse models comes from our basic approach to KPI development. UXT® automatically computes activity values from the raw details of everyday transactions, from allocation tables and from data that describes the conditions and constraints of the business environment. This activity-based valuation (ABV) process eliminates the need for activity-based costing (ABC) procedures. These activity values can then be "rolled up" to measure individual person, process, and ultimately enterprise value. Environmental data provides context and causality and can be combined with transactional values to show per-unit productivity (for example, volume / population = per capita volume). Our consultants use Salient's Value Scoring Framework to build a comprehensive process model of the linkages of value-creation. The framework is exhaustive and entirely generic.


All business processes share one or more of these elements:


Entities

(value contributors)

Events Data:

(transactions)

Environment

(conditions and constraints)
     
Customers
Suppliers
Products
Services
Assets
People
etc...
Volumetric
(units of anything)
Space, distance, population, capacity, weather, payroll
(rates, gross)
Monetary
(cost, price revenue, margin)
 
 
Temporal
(duration, frequency)
headcounts, inventories, budgets
(Cap-Ex, Op- Ex) etc...

The term "entities" refers to persons, places, and things that can add or lose value through process.  Examples of entities are customers, suppliers, products, parts, employees, assets, etc.  "Events" describes the data output of activities, and "environment" describes the conditions and constraints that cause or limit output.

UXT, A New In-Memory Analytical
Processing Platform



"Unlike a traditional BI

approach that uses online analytical processing, the Salient platform does not pre-summarize or pre-calculate anything. Rather, it enables free association, so each user can assemble the facts that fit the situation at hand without having to think about a hierarchy."
