Key Performance Indicators

Measuring your organisation’s success depends on identifying and prioritising the metrics that really matter. Using the wrong metrics can give you an incomplete or irrelevant snapshot of your business. Worse still, the wrong key performance indicators (KPIs) can create false confidence about your company’s direction.

KPIs explained

• A measure of the performance of specific goals that a business has defined to be of  critical importance to their success.
• A target (or targets)
• An action resulting from that measurement.

The benefits of measuring Key Performance Indicators

• Can allow management to see the company or department performance in one place
• A team can work together to a common set of measurable goals.
• It can be a very quick way of seeing the actual performance of a goal
• Decisions can be made much quicker when there are accurate and visible measures to back them up.

Office SharePoint Server 2007 makes it easy to create live, interactive business intelligence (BI) portals that assemble and display business-critical information from disparate sources, using integrated BI capabilities such as dashboards, Web Parts, scorecards, key performance indicators (KPIs), and business data connectivity technologies. Centralised Report Centre sites give users a single place for locating the latest reports, spreadsheets, or KPIs.

We can work with you to identify which data sources are required to satisfy the definitions of the KPIs to be measured. We can extract and consolidate the data into a data warehouse. From there the presentation layer of the KPI is normally simple and because it is web based, is easily accessible from all departments in your company via SharePoint!
