Finance Transformation Project Objectives and Scope Project Objectives: Identify opportunities to increase efficiency within Controllers Group and FP&A while maintaining/improving customer service levels Develop recommendations to maximize productivity returns from BMC s investment in the ERP implementation Recommend a future state organizational model to align Controllers Group and FP&A with the needs of the business units CFO Project Scope as indicated in the diagram below: Treasury/ Operations FP&A Israel Finance Finance, Amsterdam Controller VP/ CAO IC and IA Investor Relations Corp Tax Legend In Scope Out of Scope Copyright 6/15/2012 BMC Software, Inc 5 5
The Realignment FSS CAO FP&A Created a global Financial Shared Services (FSS) organization and clarified roles between FP&A and CAO to eliminate redundancy CAO organization will own all actual results, including both statutory and management views of the business (e.g., producing fully allocated P&L s) FP&A will be tightly aligned with the business, more focused on business analysis/decision support, and will devote less attention to tactical activities (e.g., detailed variance analysis, budget creation) FSS will focus on performing transactional accounting activities in the most efficient, cost effective manner possible and be driven by Service Level Agreements (SLA) with their customer base Copyright 6/15/2012 BMC Software, Inc 6

FY2012 Results Tiered routing introduced, which enabled Buyers and/or Sourcing Managers to focus on more material transactions with higher impact and savings. Team aligned by category ygiving gbuyers and/or Sourcing Managers higher level of support and providing P2P resources with cross training opportunities. Approximately 80% of all purchasing transactions are now being processed through supplier portals, on purchasing cards, or by our P2P team in India. P2P team is now responsible for 100% of Corporate and Purchasing Card administration globally. Centralized help desk implemented globally for P2P and P Card. The American Express Corporate Account Reconciliation (CAR) tool has been implemented on a single platform throughout North America, EMEA, India, and will be introduced in Latin America by end of quarter, providing a consistent global process. Based an innovative idea suggested by the P2P team BMC is the first company to implement this tool on a consistent platform globally. Purchasing card transactions have increased 37% year / year and spend rose 20%. Cardholder participation is now at 3.3%, which is more than double our enrollment last year. With international expansion and growth I feel we will continue to see an increase, but at a much slower pace. Copyright 6/15/2012 BMC Software, Inc 11
FY2012 Results SharePoint repository introduced for P Card reconciliation documentation globally simplifying the auditing process for AP, Tax, and IA. 36 online catalogs were implemented across 30 countries in FY12 (office supplies, promotional products, hardware, books & subscriptions, and software). XML (ecommerce) purchasing transactions grew at an average of 5% year / year and einvoicing 3%. P2P s focus in FY13 will be to expand online supplier catalogs and rollout an einvoicing solution that will complement our front end automation. Automated reminders developed to enable users to perform past due receipts via email or blackberry significantly reducing # of invoices on hold for > 30 days. Program implemented to automatically close aged PO s >120 days. Aged PO s maintained by P2P at an average rate of 5400 / Qtr. PO s processed outside of policy (after the fact) have fallen 3% since Q1. We will continue to track and communication with those individuals not adhering to policy, and escalate when necessary. First Pass Yield is at it s highest in history, reaching 86% at the end of Q4FY12. This is in part due to both verbal and formal written communication to our suppliers, but also attributing to the improvement are multiple system enhancements such as email receipts, improved notifications, and user training. i Though h this fluctuates t week / week I believe we will begin to see it stabilize throughout FY13.

Purchasing Card Trends Spend through the purchasing card program rose $4.5M or 20% in FY2012. A 37% increase in transactions for the year. Cardholder population grew 2% over the course ofthe year.

However there does appear to be a downward trend as a % of total transactions. P2P will continue to communicate with offenders and escalate to Sr. Management when necessary.
