Manage Intangible Assets within the Corporate Cash Flow

Better exploit intangible assets to create value

We may assume that we are correctly managing the Intangible Assets of the company, but, in fact, a lot of them are still overlooked. Intangible Assets Management means a precise accounting of their quantities, their values and their contributions to company performance and business results.

A new Intangible Assets Management approach through SPID™:

• The renewal of competitive and technological advantages is so fast that we must carefully control Intangible Assets and their capacity to create Future Economic Value. Thus, we can quickly decide on their use, depreciation, transparency and contribution to the goodwill.
• Reporting on Intangible Assets allows a company to have a “buffer” to adjust its financial reports. Another reason for making Intangible Assets transparent in the goodwill is related to the company’s defence against unfriendly attacks. On the other hand, correctly identifying these Intangible Assets can be interesting during an acquisition.
• A big step forward in the partnership management can be attained if we measure the value contributions that the partners exchanged between them, as well as the impact of this partnership value contribution upon business results.

The strategic actions axis of SPID™ for Intangible Assets Management:

• SPID™ accounts, in some specially-designed «value accounts», all the contributions brought by Intangible Assets to the company. These contributions are registered and evaluated based on a value negociation process among the source and the beneficiary value centers. Each value operation is documented. Building and actively supporting the framework for this negotiation process to take place is a central approach in our methodology for efficiently exploiting intangible values and thus improving performance.
• SPID™ organizes an active market of « value - contributions » and provides all the necessary mechanisms to link Intangible Assets to a cashflow stream.
• SPID™ includes all the mechanisms to support these value transactions, as well as the consolidation and conversion mechanisms of several « currencies » in one determined currency, for consolidation and reporting purposes.
