			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<ul>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 1</strong>:  <strong>They are not responsible for results</strong>, just for job done. As we <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/what-is-your-biggest-frustration-with-balanced-scorecard.htm">found out</a> the biggest frustration about Balanced Scorecard is motivation and actual usage of the system. If consultant is responsible only for physical implementation of the Balanced Scorecard, but not for actual results &#8211; you&#8217;d better solve this in the very beginning. <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">Learn how to solve this.</a></li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 2</strong>:  <strong>One consultant sells, another one actually works on your project</strong>. It happens often. Good Balanced Scorecard consultant will &#8220;sell&#8221; you the idea of Balanced Scorecard implementation, but when it comes to actual implementation there is some less experienced consultant doing all the job. <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">How to avoid the trick&#8230;</a></li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 3</strong>:  <strong>The longer they work the more you pay</strong>. Balanced Scorecard consultants like to be paid on hour base and as a result you might be overpaying much without getting expected result. <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">Learn how to avoid this trick&#8230;</a></li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 4</strong>:  <strong>Do they really know the solution?</strong> When you ask Balanced Scorecard consultant if he or she can solve this problem they normally answer &#8220;yes&#8221;, but do they actually can solve it or they going to find some mediocre solution and then bill you their &#8220;learning&#8221; hours? <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">You can avoid this trick!</a></li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 5</strong>: <strong>Third-party product recommendation.</strong> They will recommend you third-party products. Are you sure they are honest enough and are recommending you the best third-party product? Learn how avoid this trick&#8230;</li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 6</strong>: <strong>Selling you the latest version.</strong> They are recommending you some latest, best, could-based, SAAS model solution, but does your project actually need it? <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">Learn how to avoid this trick&#8230;</a></li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 7</strong>: <strong>Do you own results?</strong> If the Balanced Scorecard is hosted by you? Do you have access to online Balanced Scorecard? They suggested you to use some online dashboarding and Balanced Scorecard solution, but are you sure you have all admin access data and can control the project? Are there hidden fees? What if the next day the price of this cloud service will grow up twice? <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">Learn how to avoid this Balanced Scorecard trick&#8230;</a></li>
<li>Dirty <strong>trick 8</strong>:  <strong>They bid low, but later bill high.</strong> It is classic. They ARE Balanced Scorecard consultants, so they have to know about all the difficulties when implementing the Balanced Scorecard and they have to estimate project correctly, but they do not do it! <a href="http://www.bscdesigner.com/how-to-avoid-balanced-scorecard-consultant-dirty-tricks.htm">Learn how to avoid this trick&#8230;</a></li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The recent Android boom has revolutionized the market of touchscreen devices, name tablets and cell phones. ASK-Labs team keeps pace with the modern techie trends, and is proud to announce release of a free Android version of BSC Designer. Although this application has a limited functionality, as compared to commercial PC versions, it is still possible to create, manage and analyze business scorecards.</p>
<p>BSC Designer Android has a simple user interface, thus, even users unfamiliar with Android OS can easily operate the application. Once the apk is started, users have several options – to create a new project, to open an existing file, to load a sample file (for instance, to look at interface, check out key functions, charts and graphs etc) and adjust program settings (adjust color of stop light for indicators and perspectives). Loading a sample file is the best way to get started with BSC Designer Android.</p>
<p>A sample file contains 4 traditional categories of BSC, each perspective containing 2-3 sample indicators. Each indicator has its value, PF (performance) and PG (progress). Perspectives have PF and PG values.</p>
<p>KPIs have value, performance and progress charts which can be accessed upon clicking on a relevant indicator. Also, it’s possible to edit a KPI: alter description, weight, measure unit, value, baseline, target, min and max values. Charts can be viewed by clicking on a relevant key. Owners of devices with multitouch can change size of charts. The chart setting menu allows adjusting date periods. The upper menu has a few simple buttons for adding new categories and indicators, deleting perspectives and KPIs and choosing necessary time period.</p>
<p>Obviously, the best way to use BSC Designer Android is to analyze scorecards created at PC versions of this software. At the same time, it is easy to build scorecards with Android apk. Also, Android software is helpful at learning the concept of BSC, creating sample scorecards, mastering the ropes of managing scorecards.</p>
<p>Users can share and save created or modified bsc files. Integration with Gmail is incredibly convenient, since the bsc files will be already attached to the “send mail” form. Alternatively, bsc projects can be saved on SD card or internal memory of Android devices as *bsc files.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The latest release of BSC Designer has got a couple of new features, namely possibility to generate and store QR codes. Recently, smartphones running on various operating systems, like Bada, Windows Mobile and Android, grew in popularity, especially among business people, who need to stay online and access necessary commercial info anywhere and anytime.</p>
<p>QR codes are extensively used in a variety of smartphones since they provide easy ways to encode information or even use cell phones as payment gateways. BSC Designer has two new features with QR coding.</p>
<p>Firstly, users can encode any text or url by accessing Tools-Generate QR code. The procedure is rather simple, since the code is generated simultaneously to text input. The image can be then saved as a screenshot, or alternatively it’s possible to make a picture with a cell phone.</p>
<p>Secondly, when generating html reports users will have an opportunity to generate QR code, which, in fact, is generated automatically. This feature covers html reports published at ftp so, basically, QR will encode web address of the generated report. This feature will be helpful for users who are often on the road and use cell phones to access business info.</p>
