The Relationship

O risco, inerente a qualquer atividade, está presente tanto no cotidiano individual quanto no empresarial. A literatura aponta ainda lacunas na relação entre a gestão do risco e as metodologias de análise de desempenho, aqui tratado através do Balanced Scorecard (BSC). O objetivo deste artigo repousa na investigação da relação entre o BSC e a gestão ou a mitigação dos riscos corporativos, analisando, se a ação de estabelecer uma cultura voltada para a implementação, execução e controle das estratégias, apoiada por sistemas adequados de medição de desempenho, impactam na gestão dos riscos. Por meio de um estudo de múltiplos casos com três grandes empresas que já haviam implantado o BSC há pelo menos dois anos, buscou-se tal resposta. Apesar do risco ser administrado de maneira diferente em cada organização, verificou-se que com a adoção da metodologia do BSC possibilitou as empresas identificarem uma maior gama de riscos prováveis, potencializando assim a sua gestão. O sistema de mensuração de desempenho auxiliou a empresa a focar eventuais áreas de risco estratégicas e auxiliar a direção em um plano de ação sustentável para atenuar os riscos. The risk, inherent in any activity, is present both in the individual and in everyday business. The literature also highlights gaps in the relationship between risk management and performance analysis methodologies, here handled through the Balanced Scorecard (BSC). The aim of this paper lies in investigating the relationship between the BSC and the management or mitigation of corporate risks, analyzing whether the action of establishing a culture focused on the implementation, execution and control of strategies, supported by adequate performance measurement systems, impact on risk management. Through a multiple case study with three large companies that have already deployed the BSC for at least two years, we sought to answer such question. Despite the risk be administered differently in each organization, it was found that by adopting the BSC methodology enabled companies to identify a wider range of possible risks, thus enhancing its management. The performance measurement system helped the company to focus on possible strategic risk areas and assist the direction on a sustainable action plan to mitigate the risks.

This chapter investigates how organizations have been adapting their performance measurement practices in response to their adoption of e-business in their business operations. It aims to identify the features and benefits of an effective e-business performance measurement system. Twelve organizations known to have had some success in developing performance measurement systems suitable for the online environment were studied. The researchers found that these organizations adopted an incremental rather than a radical approach to changing their performance measurement system for e-business, thereby avoiding the costs and disruption associated with the introduction of more complex performance metrics. Secondly, they eschewed the use of best practice recipes (such as the balanced scorecard). The study concludes that although these results may be at odds with the prescriptive generic performance measurement literature, they may be appropriate for the current state of development of e-business.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to present a theoretical approach based on the balanced scorecard (BSC) with regard to performance measurement – PM in supply chains for the Industry 4.0 era.Design/methodology/approachThis paper combines the literature of PM and specifically the BSC with the literature related to the dimensions of supply chain in the context of Industry 4.0.FindingsDimensions extracted from the literature based on supply chains within the context of Industry 4.0 showed a strong alignment with the four perspectives of the BSC, which make it suitable to be considered as a performance measurement system (PMS) for supply chains in this new context.Research limitations/implicationsFrom theoretical perspective, this study contributes to the limited literature on PM for supply chains in Industry 4.0 era. The study proposes a supply chain 4.0 Scorecard and strongly support researchers to conduct future empirical researches in order to get a deeper understanding about PM in supply chains in the Industry 4.0 era. As limitations, the theoretical framework proposed needs further empirical research in other to validate it and obtain new insights over the investigation conducted and presented into this paper.Practical implicationsPractitioners can use this study as a guide to develop more effective performance measurement systems – PMSs in their organizations.Originality/valueThis research is unique as it addresses a significant knowledge gap related to PM in supply chains in the Industry 4.0 era. It brings a significant contribution in terms of understanding how to measure performance in supply chains in this new era.

Using Data

ABSTRACT The Campbell, Datar, Kulp, and Narayanan (2015; hereafter, CDKN) study empirically investigates how the quality of a firm's business strategy can be tested and validated using statistical analysis of the firm's internal performance measurement system. Using data from the balanced scorecard of a convenience store chain, their study provides empirical evidence that the company's internal performance measures reveal timely information about problems with the strategy and can help identify where and why the strategy failed. In this brief discussion of the study, I first summarize the major strengths of their study, then discuss my concerns and comments, and finally point out some potential extensions. In summary, CDKN's study is important in that it makes significant contributions to several streams of literature. CDKN have inspired follow-up studies on the use of performance measurement systems to evaluate strategy and the testing of business models, and has opened up exciting opportunities for future research.

The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) initially developed by Kaplan and Norton is a performance measurement system that supplements traditional financial measures with the criteria that measure performance from three additional perspectives: customer perspective, internal business perspective, and innovation and learning perspective. In recent years, the Balanced Scorecard has been applied to information technology in order to ensure that IT is fairly evaluated. The proposed methodology can also be applied to e-business initiatives. In this chapter, it is illustrated how the BSC can be used to measure and manage e-business initiatives. A generic e-business Balanced Scorecard is proposed and its development and implementation is discussed.

A Performance

Performance measurement can be an effective tool in driving organization improvement to enable your utility to become more competitive, or improve customer satisfaction. WERF Project #99-WWF-7, Developing and Implementing a Performance Measurement System, is developing performance measurement systems by investigating a number of “best practices” in other industries and implementing selected practices at various water/wastewater utilities nationwide to determine how these practices can be adapted and applied. This joint WERF/AWWARF research project has been underway since mid-1999 to provide methods and tools that enable the utility to develop and implement a performance measurement system based on a demonstrated, proven approach. The Volume I Report summarizes the secondary research and project approach. Well designed, properly implemented performance measurement systems can enable utilities to achieve new levels of performance in terms of efficiency, quality, and effectiveness. Interest in performance measurement is increasing in all competitive businesses and industries today, and has been advanced through concepts such as the Balanced Scorecard. Utilities can employ these same concepts and learn “best practices” from other industries' experiences. While a performance measurement system alone does not improve performance or make a utility competitive, when combined with an appropriate business strategy and performance improvement initiatives, it can drive a cycle of change. A successful performance measurement system combines a holistic approach around improved business practices and effective human/organizational strategies in addition to actual performance information for operational decision-making.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to provide a parallel review of the role and processes of monitoring and regulation of corporate identities, examining both the communication and the performance measurement literature.Design/methodology/approachTwo questions are posed: Is it possible to effectively monitor and regulate corporate identities as a management control process? and, What is the relationship between corporate identity and performance measurement?FindingsCorporate identity management is positioned as a strategically complex task embracing the shaping of a range of dimensions of organisational life. The performance measurement literature likewise now emphasises organisational ability to incorporate both financial and “soft” non‐financial performance measures. Consequently, the balanced scorecard has the potential to play multiple roles in monitoring and regulating the key dimensions of corporate identities. These shifts in direction in both fields suggest that performance measurement systems, as self‐producing and self‐referencing systems, have the potential to become both organic and powerful as organisational symbols and communication tools. Through this process of understanding and mobilising the interaction of both approaches to management, it may be possible to create a less obtrusive and more subtle way to control the nature of the organisation.Originality/valueThis paper attempts the theoretical and practical fusion of disciplinary knowledge around corporate identities and performance measurement systems, potentially making a significant contribution to understanding, shaping and managing organisational identities.
