What is EPM Architecture?
PeopleSoft's EPM 8.3 is the first application to provide complete scope of business analytical functionality. EPM 8.3 is web
enabled based purely on Internet technology. PeopleSoft is also the first Business Intelligence solution to integrate data
warehousing capabilities through their proprietary Enterprise Warehouse (EW). EW serves as the main repository that
contains information from PeopleSoft applications as well as third party and legacy systems. EW uses business rules via the
analytic applications to make information available for management analysis. EPM 8.3 includes modules such as Balanced
Scorecard, Activity Based Management, Analytic Forecasting, Workforce Analytics, Business Planning and Budgeting. In
addition, EPM provides industry specific modules, currently for the financial industry. These include modules such as Asset
Liability Management and Funds Transfer Pricing.
