Executive Summary

e•Plan will minimize the complexity and cost of any Project Reporting and Incentive Pay System and deliver the most important result:

MOTIVATED EXECUTION

After all, it's the reason for the systems in the first place.

React Faster. Plan Better.

You can put e•Plan to work automating the entire project reporting and incentive infrastructure, regardless of size or complexity. PI's service professionals have proven experience in tailoring e•Plan to meet the unique demands of any organization. As a result, data entry from all staff is double-verified and all processed information is easy to use and formatted to eliminate misinterpretation by management.

Automating an incentive pay program with e•Plan makes it possible for a specific business area to respond to market shifts or new opportunities the minute they arise. In a large organization, the reliability and efficiency of e•Plan can be readily extended to all product areas and critical business processes. With e•Plan in place, companies are able to make rapid program adjustments necessary to take on challenges before competition intercedes or customer satisfaction suffers.

e•Plan Solution Saves AT&T over $1 million a Year

To maximize the sales effectiveness of a multi-tiered, multi-location, multi-product sales force of 4,500+, AT&T knew it would have to find a way to totally automate a complex, large-scale incentive pay program. It meant covering every variance, contingency and detail of a wide variety of constantly changing compensation programs.

AT&T decided to do it the easy way. They called on e•Plan for the construction and customization of a Microsoft based .NET Intranet site that would control and administer sales incentive pay programs. At the same time, e•Plan would give them the flexibility to adjust or completely change any program instantly and know the software had the capacity to respond instantly, with no errors, and no need to go back later and correct an overpayment or misinterpretation.

How did it all add up?

Instead of spending hours on the company clock figuring out the amount of incentive compensation earned, sales personnel use those hours to sell. Instead of spending unproductive hours administering complex incentive programs, AT&T management now has the time to develop new, more effective incentive programs. Especially since the sales activity data developed by e•Plan's business process automation can be used to determine new strategic objectives.

In addition, e•Plan has the flexibility to dynamically generate end user screens at log in. This means each sales professional can log on, record activity, and calculate personal commissions. Information available to any given individual at any time is determined and controlled by management. To assure accurate commissions are paid, closed-loop verification always measures compensation against actual AT&T billing data.

Finally, the scalability and flexibility of e•Plan enables AT&T to initiate immediate, accurate, mid-course corrections or change incentive pay plans on-the-fly to respond to a sudden shift in market conditions.
