However, there are many vendors using equally narrow definitions of performance management that I didn't take note of it. My big complaint is that they refer to what they do as "business process management" when the analysts' definitions of BPM really define a core part of BPM as having an execution environment. Of course, judging by the interview that I had with their product head, some of that will be coming later this year.

It so so much broader including strategy execution, customer economic value targeting, rolling financial forecasts, and predictive analytics to name a few. Including governance and compliance is something diffeent and, in my opinion, are outside the scope of performance management. -- Gary Cokins My sense is Dr. Jost describes the ‘narrow’ view of enterprise performance management as being process improvement and dashboard measures.
