3. Can Organization Have Successful Performance Measurement System Without Process Improvement Program

Generally, "it is difficult, but not impossible." A Successful performance measurement system links strategy to:

  • business and department scorecards
  • processes
  • job performance measures

Therefore, well-designed, company-wide performance measurement system will, in-and-of-itself improve performance to some degree.

But, a truly successful performance measurement system is designed with tools and techniques to close performance gaps between target performance measures and actual performance.
