Product Description

Refreshed and enhanced for businesses in 2019 — the new 4th edition performance measures and success factors database has been re-imagined to provide better tools and insights for business KPIs. Included is both a Microsoft Access database containing the aforementioned data, instructions on how to best use the database for maximum utilisation and effect, as well as the data in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet for those who prefer the data in a different format.

There are some steps you need to do before using any KPI database.  These are set out in my Critical Success Factor and KPI Toolkit 

A sample from the 400 performance measures in the KPI database

The following database is a listing of performance measures to help start this process off. These measures will be a valuable resource when looking at performance measures during workshops. You can acquire this database electronically (for a small fee).

I have been influenced by Stacey Barr’s work and agree that it is beneficial to evaluate potential measures by asking two questions for each potential measure:

  1. How strong an indicator of performance is this measure? (5 = very strong, 1 = very weak)
  2. How feasible will it be to measure this? (5= very easy as will already be system generated , 3 = special request will be required to gather data, 1 = very difficult to gather data)

The strength of the measure should be evaluated with regards to the critical success factor you are working with. My weightings are thus only guidelines.
