SIMMETHOD Strategy & Execution
Performance Predictive Index
On April 2, Tiernan Ray wrote on Barron’s
Tech Trader Daily:
• “A bit of debate is underway about what
to expect from enterprise Big Data
technology provider Teradata amidst
rising competition from open-source
software Hadoop”
8/13/2014 3WWW.SIMMETHOD.BLOGSPOT.COM

• “Summit Research’s Srini Nandury
reiterates a Buy rating, and a $58 price
target, writing that the main issue for
the company has been a slowdown in IT
spending, not Hadoop, and that things
are about to turn around for the
company”

• Cowen & Co’s Peter Goldmacher
reiterates an underperform rating on
Teradata shares, writing that Q1 results
on May 1st may best street expectations,
but that the rest of the year may
disappoint”

SIMMETHOD
• Is Teradata’s future risk and
performance predictable based
on the SIMMETHOD Strategy
and Execution Performance
Predictive Index and risk and
opportunities alerts?

The CEO Lament in the Business
Analytics Market
• We did not see it coming. All my
products and data analytics
pointed North while my business
as a whole (in comparison to
new competitors and the Best In
Class in multiple
industries) pointed South.

How to holistically
measure strategy and
execution and
competitive advantage?

Trends against the SIMMETHOD Best In Class
Your level of risk increases when:
• Your data points North and the SIMMETHOD
indices point South, or
• Your gap to your peers and the Best In Class is
widening or
• The score of your Strategy & Execution
Performance Predictive Index is not
supported by all the other indices
under management control.

SIMMETHOD’s C-Level Trends 2012-2014
Teradata and the Best-In-Class
• When the Best-In-Class and your
SIMMETHOD C-Level indices are
moving in opposite directions, your
ability to compete weakens in
proportion to your widening
gap to the Best-In-Class.

Is there a disconnect between your raw
data and your SIMMETHOD indices?
• When your raw data (such as
your sales) is trending up and
your corresponding SIMMETHOD
Sales Index is trending down,
your level of risk is
increasing. Why?

Is there a disconnect between your raw data
and your SIMMETHOD indices?
Unlike raw data (e.g. sales), the SIMMETHOD
Sales Index holistically measures:
The resources necessary to deliver $1 of sales
in relation to peers and the Best In Class and
The contribution of your sales to the health
and value of your business in relation to your
peers and the Best In Class

Teradata’s 2013-2014 Gap to the
SIMMETHOD Best In Class Profile
• Is Teradata’s gap to the
SIMMETHOD Best In Class
profile narrowing or
widening?

Is there a disconnect between your SIMMETHOD
indices and your gap to the Best In Class profile?
• When your SIMMETHOD indices are
trending up and your gap to the
SIMMETHOD Best In Class profile is
trending down, your C-Level sensors
are presenting you with specific risk
and opportunity alerts.
Why?

Is there a disconnect between your SIMMETHOD
indices and your gap to the Best In Class profile?
Unlike the SIMMETHOD indices that holistically
measure your strategy/execution or competitive
position within a business league table, your gap to
the Best In Class profiles:
Provides a specific C-Level ratio by ratio path to a
moving Best In Class performance and risk
management profile or your pre-established targets
Provides risk and opportunities alerts that can be
acted upon to reduce the gap to the Best In Class,
improve your performance , competitive advantage
and reduce your risk level
