Abstract

Systems, methods and computer readable media are provided for controlling operations of an enterprise. In one exemplary embodiment, a method is provided that includes creating an alert model that may be parameterized by a user to monitor the behavior of one or more operational drivers. The method may also include monitoring the behavior of the one or more operational drivers based on the alert model and sending an alert message when the behavior of the one or more operational driver causes a deviation from a preset standard. The method may further include analyzing the alert message to determine one or more behaviors contributing to the alert and communicating the alert message to others in order to collaborate on correcting the deviation from the preset standard. Moreover, the method may include generating a report summary regarding the alert.
