Introduction:
Key Performance Indicators (KPI) are measurable factors that relate to an
organisation's objectives. For example, if a company wanted to improve
customer retention, and had noticed a high level of complaints about delivery,
then deliveries made on time over a set period of time would be a KPI. Key
Performance Indicators can be a means to promote company-wide changes to
processes, providing a way to report back successes in customer satisfaction
and improve profitability by being able to anticipate supply chain risks, evaluation
of work force data by examining reports for staff and expenses of industrial
companies. Key words: KPI performance indicators,evaluating employees,
production lines, industry.In the medium/large sized industrial organizations, a
timely and effective evaluation of staff performance through strategic tools,
should be able to design an integrated system of key performance .
For KPIs to be effective they must be quantifiable, measurable in a defined way.
The first step would be to define organizational goals:- better sales numbers,
higher productivity, higher customer retention. Once these are decided then the
specific KPIs are easier to decide upon. Once the goals are determined then the
means of measuring them can be decided, and the timeframes that will be used
to measure them. Baseline data is needed to assess success (or otherwise)
against.
There are a number of techniques that might assist in identifying and developing records
management KPIs, including:
Cause and effect;
Risk based; and
Lifecycle approach.
It is also possible to slice and dice KPIs to match KPIs to the levels of responsibility as
well
as group similar KPIs to a category specific to the outcomes sought. These are:
Developing KPIs at two levels strategic and operational; and
Grouping or aggregating KPIs into categories.
KPIs can be either quantitative or qualitative. Quantitative KPIs are likely to be based on
system collected statistics such as number of users whereas qualitative KPIs may be
based
on more subjective measurements from user interviews and surveys. In some instances
a
more balanced view might be obtained by grouping and/or aggregating quantitative and
qualitative based KPIs.
