Claim One:
1. A computer implemented method for providing a graphical user interface to perform financial transformation, comprising: establishing a hub and spoke network of models including at least a process model as the hub and at least components model, value drivers model, applications model, solutions models as the spoke connected to the process model, the establishing including providing a mapping editor allowing a user to select a source model and a target model via the graphical user interface on a display device that presents a plurality of nodes under the source model in a tree view and a plurality of nodes under the target model in a tree view, the target model being the business process model, wherein the user is enabled to map one or more of the plurality of nodes under the source model and one or more nodes of the plurality of nodes under the target model by selecting one or more leaf nodes of the plurality of nodes under the source model and one or more of the plurality of nodes under the target model on the graphical user interface; inferring, by a processor, a plurality of correlations among said models using daisy-chain analysis that navigates the hub and spoke network of models; generating heat map and performing analysis on the heat map; performing application short fall analysis, the shortfall analysis including at least selecting application, overlaying application, and identifying application shortfall; performing organization shortfall analysis, the organization shortfall analysis including at least selecting organization unit, overlaying organization unit, and identifying organization shortfall; performing solution analysis, the solution analysis including at least reviewing shortfall, selecting solution and analyzing solution; and performing business case analysis, the business case analysis including at least a combination of CBM analysis and benchmarking data-based business case analysis with financial metrics.
