Technical, behavioural and psychological aspects are all touched upon. Important results from physics, statistics, information theory and control theory are all used to provide practical guidance. Key performance indicators providing a ‘window’ so that the success or otherwise of a strategy can be judged and any necessary actions taken are explored. The need is emphasised for SMART measures which can be influenced by the actions of those who are judged by them. Ensuring that the measures cover all areas in the form of a balanced scorecard, and are arranged in a hierarchy, is mentioned. Three different targetsetting approaches for key performance indicators are discussed, viz. trending, benchmarking and best of the best. How the organisational culture and psychology will influence target setting is discussed. Accuracy, error and uncertainty of measures are explored, together with the need to measure frequently enough to spot changes. The need to separate signals from noise, and only take actions when significant changes occur, is covered. Drawing on control theory, the need to consider the delay between cause and effect in order to ensure stability of the performance management system is discussed. Finally, a checklist guide for key performance indicator essentials is included. REASONS FOR INDICATORS Key performance indicators close the inputprocessoutput loop and link back to what was expected, and ultimately to the strategy. It is therefore only by monitoring key performance indicators that we can see if the strategy is actually working. Key performance indicators are there primarily to see whether the strategy is working and where changes might be required. It follows therefore that the indicators themselves need to relate to critical success factors in the strategy itself. In other words, if safety features heavily in our strategy, then we might expect to see indicators based on near misses, incidents, accidents and staff behaviours. Indicators can also be used as a feed to the continuous improvement programme and to help with a review of planned maintenance routines and for supplier appraisals. Indicators themselves must be part of a performance management system so that staff actually does what we want them to do in the most costeffective manner. Just measuring something affects behaviour. For example, some would say, ‘I like to do what I enjoy doing and also what my boss measures’. So there needs to be careful choice of measures to ensure the behaviours we want are encouraged. For example, in recent years, short term profit measures in the banks have encouraged excessive risk taking by staff. Measures should be linked to rewards for both staff and also key suppliers and service providers. Rewards themselves can be both financial and nonfinancial. No doubt we have all seen employee of the month awards when checking into hotels. Whoever is measured by a key performance indicator must have the means and the time to influence its value. The measures need to be SMART, i.e. • Specific/simple • Measureable • Achievable/acceptable/attainable Tweet 0 Be the first of your friends to like this.
