Newport Board Group, a National Advisory Firm and InsightSPI Form a Strategic Alliance to Create Performance Improvement Dashboards for Middle Market Companies
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) March 10, 2014 -- Newport Board Group, the leading national advisory services firm comprised of former CEOs and senior executives and InsightSPI, a leading provider of business analytics and performance management software, have announced a strategic alliance to create executive-level dashboards to help middle market companies measure performance and monitor metrics. The dashboards will integrate a comprehensive set of proven strategies and tools that can produce rapid gains in cash flow, improve corporate performance and valuation and prepare for a capital transaction.
Newport will integrate InsightSPI products into the Newport Value Accelerator™ (NVA), a proprietary methodology to set and attain cash flow and valuation targets. Drawing on the wide range of industry expertise in the Newport Expert Network™, Newport will build InsightSPI tools into Newport’s holistic approach to enhancing the value of middle market companies.
The alliance with Newport will allow InsightSPI to incorporate the operating experience and expertise of almost 80 Newport partners. Working together, Newport and InsightSPI will help owners and executives better understand their business, address operating problems, capitalize on opportunities and see the impact of their decisions. The alliance will accelerate bringing to the middle market valuable performance management capabilities that until now have been accessible only to large companies.
Michael Evans, a Newport Managing Director and Board Member commented: “We are excited about our alliance with InsightSPI. Dashboards have enabled larger companies to focus their management and employees on goals and on metrics to track achieving those goals. It’s time for middle market companies to have affordable access to the same kinds of powerful, practical tools.”
