  1. Strategic Management BALANCED SCORECARD

  2. Diffusion of a New Idea • “The Balanced Scorecard: Measures that Drive Performance” (Robert S. Kaplan and David P. Norton, Harvard Business Review, February 1992) • About 35% of Fortune 2000 firms have adopted a balanced scorecard, 55% of those firms are very satisfied with it. (R. D. Banker, C. Konstans and S. Janakiraman; January 2000) Balanced Scorecard

  3. Balanced Score Card • A new approach to strategic management was developed in the early 1990's by Drs.  Robert Kaplan (Harvard Business School) and David Norton (Balanced Scorecard Collaborative).   • They named this system the 'balanced scorecard'.  Recognizing some of the weaknesses and vagueness of previous management approaches, the balanced scorecard approach provides a clear prescription as to what companies should measure in order to 'balance' the financial perspective. Balanced Scorecard

  4. Balanced Score Card • Kaplan and Norton describe the innovation of the balanced scorecard as follows: “The balanced scorecard retains traditional financial measures. But financial measures tell the story of past events, an adequate story for industrial age companies for which investments in long-term capabilities and customer relation-ships were not critical for success. These financial measures are inadequate, however, for guiding and evaluating the journey that information age companies must make to create future value through investment in customers, suppliers, employees, processes, technology, and innovation." Balanced Scorecard

  5. Evaluation MethodsBalanced Scorecard – Four Perspectives Financial Perspective How should we appear to our shareholders? Internal Business Perspective At what business practice must we excel? Customer Perspective How should we appear to our customers? Vision And Strategy Learning and Innovation Perspective How should we sustain our ability to change and improve? Balanced Scorecard

  6. Balanced Scorecard Financial Perspective How do we look to our shareholders? Internal Process Perspective Customer Perspective Vision & Strategy What business processes are the value drivers? How do we look to our customers? Learning & Growth Perspective Are we able to sustain innovation, change and improvement Balanced Scorecard

  8. Balance in the Scorecard • Balance between financial, customer, internal process and learning perspectives • Balance between financial and non-financial measures • Balance between short-term and long-term objectives • Balance between hard, objective measures and softer, more subjective measures • Balance between different stakeholders  Balance between strategic and diagnostic measures Balanced Scorecard

  11. Identify strategic objectives for each perspective.An objective is a statement of strategic intent. An objective states how a strategy will be made operational. Application will allow strategic objectives to be aligned with at least one perspective. • Associate measures with strategic objectives.A measure is a performance metric that will reflect progress against an objective. A measure must be quantifiable. Leading measures are predictors of future performance, while lagging measures are outcomes. Measure has to be linked with an objective. • Assign targets to measures.A target is a quantifiable goal for each measure with a specified time frame. • Link strategic objectives in cause and effect relationships (Theme).Objectives are linked to one another through cause and effect relationships. Application should be able to represent the linkages graphically and should able to edit/change as appropriate. • List strategic initiatives.Strategic initiatives are action programs that drive performance. The application should allow for setting of strategic initiatives to be linked to at least one objective. • View the strategy from four perspectives (Financial, Customer, Internal and Learning).A perspective is a component into which the strategy is decomposed to drive implementation. Other perspective may be added to the typical set or replace based on specific strategic need. BALANCED SCORECARD DESIGN

  12. Balanced Score Card Balanced Scorecard

  13. A Balanced Scorecard • “Is a performance measurement system that translates an organization’s strategy into clear objectives, measures, targets, and initiatives.”(Kaplan and Norton, Harvard Business Review, 1996) ”A method for the organization to systematically develop a comprehensive link between its strategy and a coherent set of performance measures.” “A method for the organization to systematically develop a comprehensive system of planning and control”.(Kaplan and Norton, Harvard Business Review, 1992) Balanced Scorecard

  14. Balanced Scorecard • The balanced scorecard (BSC) provides a framework for selecting multiple performance measures focused on critical aspects of business (Kaplan and Norton 1992). • The essence of the BSC is the articulation of linkages between performance measures and strategic objectives (Kaplan and Norton 1996). 2

  15. Translating Strategy Into Initiatives For each perspective: Strategy Performance Measures Key Success Factors Initiatives Targets Balanced Scorecard

  16. A Strategic Scorecard • Should include leading indicators • Leading indicators: Drivers of long term value • Lagging indicators: Feedback measures on current performance • Should include outcome measures as well as measures of the drivers of those outcomes • Should link all measures with the overall strategy Balanced Scorecard

  17. Diagnostic vs Strategic Measures • Diagnostic measures • Monitor whether the business remains “in control” • Signal when unusual events occur that require immediate attention • Necessary, but not sufficient, for achieving long term goals • Strategic measures • Articulate a strategy designed for competitive excellence • Evaluate strategies based on new information about competitors, customers, markets, technologies & suppliers Balanced Scorecard

  18. Financial Perspective Customizing Measures for the Growth Stage • Sales growth rate • Sales in new markets • Sales to new customers • Sales from new products • Investment in product development • Investment in information technology • Investment in employee skills • Investment in new distribution channels Balanced Scorecard

  19. Financial Perspective Customizing Measures for the Sustain Stage • Return on capital employed • Economic Value Added (EVA) • Operating income/Gross margin • Discounted cash flows • Asset utilization rates • Cost reduction rates • Cost benchmarked against competitors • Customer and product line profitability Balanced Scorecard

  20. Financial Perspective Customizing Measures for the Harvest Stage • Current cash flows • Payback period • Spending ratios • Throughput ratios • Product line profitability • Negative cash flow customers Balanced Scorecard

  24. Learning and Growth Perspective Objectives Capability Measures Employee Skills • Real-time availability • Accuracy • Pervasiveness Long Term Success Information Systems • Satisfaction • Retention • Training • Capabilities • Alignment of incentives with key success factors • Improvement in key customer and internal processes Organizational Processes Balanced Scorecard

  25. So, A Balanced Scorecard… • Is much more than a collection of indicators of key success factors. • Is a flight simulator, not a dashboard of instrument dials. • Integrates performance measures with a unique strategy. • Incorporates cause-and-effect relationships, including leads, lags and feedback loops. Balanced Scorecard

  26. Process Quality Process Cycle Time Linking the Balanced Scorecard to Strategy A Strategy Is a Set of Hypotheses About Cause and Effect Return on Capital Employed Financial Customer Loyalty Customer Customer On-time Delivery Internal Process Learning & Growth Employee Skills Balanced Scorecard

  27. Link to Financial Objectives • Balanced scorecard retains a strong emphasis on financial outcome measures. • Ultimately, causal paths from all performance measures should be linked to financial objectives. • Failure to link improvement programs (e.g. TQM, cycle time reduction, reengineering, and employee empowerment) results inevitably in organizations becoming disillusioned about lack of tangible payoffs.

  34. To Implement a Balanced Scorecard The organization must • Define and develop measures for its primary strategic objectives. • Understand how different business processes contribute to its strategic objectives. • Identify the drivers of performance on strategic objectives. • Develop a set of measures to monitor drivers of strategic objectives. • Communicate its beliefs about how processes create results.
