A Galaxy of IT Insights

At Eaton, we've always strived to get to know IT pros and their needs by listening to them directly. Recently we launched My IT Galaxy, a questionnaire-slash-infographic creator, where nearly 900 IT pros told us about their day-to-day realities, infrastructure, and stance on pizza toppings.

Our survey included a spectrum of environments, organizations and industries, including education, healthcare, finance, and retail. And so, a whole galaxy of IT insights was born. Here are some of the results.

From LIBOR to SOFR: A Flexible Architecture is The Key to Surviving This Evolution

At the grand old age of 51, LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) has reached retirement with its expiry date set for the end of 2021.

SOFR is the new benchmark for all dollar-denominated loans and securities and is based on transactions in the U.S. Treasury repo market. However, the switch from LIBOR to SOFR will create complexities that must be overcome if GPs are to produce transparent, on-demand reporting that will satisfy LPs.

In this whitepaper, learn how the flexible architecture of Allvue's system allows it to evolve with the investment industry, making a future proof solution for all investment needs.

What is Business Intelligence and Why Should GPs Care

Having the ability to synthesize and glean insights from vast (and growing) data sets can be very useful across many roles and functions in any organization.

The investment management industry, whose business model is predicated on information discovery, has taken notice. "Business Intelligence", or "BI" tools are being deployed across the firm, from the back office to investment teams to client relations.

This paper will look at four situations typical in a GP – managing the deal pipeline, monitoring portfolio company KPIs, fundraising and management/partner reporting – to see how these tools can be utilized to optimize decision making across the firm.

The Risk of Spreadsheets For Private Capital Fund Managers

Spreadsheets are like an old friend - we rely and trust them, even if they make us crazy once in a while. But in terms of the private capital industry, too much reliance can turn into an unproductive relationship.

With private capital’s increasing influence in the financial markets, the role the spreadsheet plays in making major decisions - across the back office, deal teams and LPs, - is worth examining.

Sullivan Solar Power’s IT Leader Enables Lead Generation and Revenue Growth

When Daniel Sullivan started Sullivan Solar Power he had one goal in mind: to transform the way the world generates electricity.

At the time his company launched in 2004 it was one of few in the San Diego area that installed solar power systems. Since then not only has Sullivan Solar Power grown tremendously, so has the industry itself.
But the company’s fast growth was hindering their ability to deliver. Sullivan Solar Power needed to find a way to stay ahead of the competition. Company leaders quickly identified that they needed a better way to manage an exploding volume of sales leads.

The company’s spreadsheet-based system for tracking leads was inconsistent and impossible to report on making it difficult to know the actual number of leads. The team turned to Quick Base to quickly build a centralized system to manage sales leads and other key company information. They have since leveraged Quick Base to streamline multiple processes and functions, from multiple business functions like HR, Purchasing, and IT.

Drive Business Success with a Dual-Track Approach to Transformation

Digital transformation has become the watchword—or, some would say, buzzword—in corporate suites for much of the past decade. The drive to leverage digital capabilities comes as operational agility is seen as the answer for innovating new business models and serving rapidly shifting customer demands. The Covid-19 pandemic has only intensified the need for organizations to move quickly to prepare for the next large-scale crisis or seize a new opportunity.

Quick Base has sponsored this research by Harvard Business Review Analytic Services to explore why IT leaders are embracing dual-track transformation, the impacts on their businesses, and how they are implementing rapid-cycle innovation to support this strategy. In this survey, you’ll see data that reflects input from over 400 IT leaders, as well as crucial insight from chief information officers at some of the largest companies in the world.

5 Proven Ways to Drive Continuous Improvement

Process is the lifeblood of every business, and yet too many organizations suffer from processes that are inefficient and unsustainable. Whether your organization is stuck navigating a snarl of unwieldy spreadsheets and emails or painstakingly customizing large, complex systems with part-time support from overworked technical teams, the result is the same: a bogged-down business with frustrated employees, customers, and shareholders.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

Creating and sustaining efficient business processes requires expert planning and design, but also supporting technologies to keep work moving across the entire process. In this eBook, we’ll show you how five different organizations transformed previously disparate tasks and workflows into a seamless process with all the benefits—at a fraction of the cost or time commitment—of customizing legacy business applications.
