Schumacher Group Demonstrates Innovation and IT Leadership With Cloud CPM Technology
(firmenpresse) - REDWOOD CITY, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/05/12 -- , the leader in (CPM), today announced that its customer, Schumacher Group, the third largest emergency medical staffing and management company in the U.S., has been named a winner of the prestigious Ventana Research 2012 Leadership Award in the CIO and IT Leadership category. This is the second time a Host Analytics customer has won the award, which recognizes leaders that advance the use of technology to contribute to their organization's success.
In the past, Schumacher depended on a manual budgeting process, even as the company continued to grow at 15 percent or more annually. Led by CIO Douglas Menefee, the company adopted Host Analytics' cloud CPM solution for a more collaborative, efficient and faster budgeting process. Using Host Analytics, Schumacher shortened a previously five months long budgeting process to three months, and gained greater insight into financial and corporate performance information, with benefits that extended beyond the finance team to the rest of the organization.
Schumacher Group was selected by Ventana Research from a pool of applicants as a winner in the category of CIO and IT Leadership, marking the second time a Host Analytics customer has won the award. In 2010, Thule, Inc., another Host Analytics customer, won in the Financial Analytics and Performance category. For a complete list of winners, visit: .
