CPM for me stands for Characters Per-Minute… speed of a printer as how many characters the printer can print in one minute. But the search I made recently says differently. For me, cpm only exists in IT world… but actually no!

There is another meaning of CPM… Corporate Performance Management! Yes it has nothing to do with IT but management… errr… but actually it does involved IT 😀

Corporate Performance Management can be used as a tool in organization to understand, act on and influence its business performance through software, processes and measures of business success. With all that, the organization can produce metrics and key performance indicators. Now you know there are two meaning of CPM, the next time you see one, make sure it refers to what is supposed to be OK… 😀
