Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explain how an organization’s performance measurement system can influence the appropriateness of an organization’s responses to threats. Design/methodology/approach – Inductive and deductive reasoning, drawing on major theories and on empirical findings in the management literature. Findings – An organization’s performance measurement system can influence the effectiveness of the organization’s detections of threats and the appropriateness of the organization’s responses to threats and, in these ways, contribute to the organization’s robustness and sustainability. Practical implications – Formation of an appropriate performance management system can prove critical to both detection of and responses to organizational threats. As such, an organizational performance management system can contribute to organizational robustness and sustainability. Originality/value – The idea, that an organization’s performance measurement system can influence the effectiveness of the organization’s detections of threats and the appropriateness of the organization’s responses to threats, is not articulated in the management literature. Thus, the research reported here is original and would seem to have value to the research community, the organization design community (as an organization’s control systems are an important component of its architecture), and the management community.

Abstract In accounting, enterprise resource planning system is the database software package for supporting all corporations’ operations and processes such as marketing, human resources, finance, manufacturing, and several others. ERPS stores different forms of data for various computerized functions in a single database, user interface, and application. Although ERPS were initially utilized by huge manufacturing corporations, they are currently used by all sizes of businesses. Therefore, there is a need to identify the performance advantages that businesses gain from ERPS together with its impact on the performance of a firm. The goal of the research is to offer insights regarding the implementation of ERPS and their influence on organizational performance. The study will determine the benefits of ERPS, identify if there is a reliable or valid performance measurement system that connects ERPS to the performance of the organization, identify if ERPS have a positive effect on the performance of a company in the time periods after implementation and finally set the success factors accountable for the ERPS benefits. Accordingly, the study will establish the effect of ERPS on the performance of a company. The study will be a quantitative research where questionnaires will be used to collect the primary data. Purposive sampling will be used to obtain 50 answers from accounting experts so that to evaluate the effect of ERPS on financial performance and auditing of Lebanese firms. Moreover, financial performance indicators will be used to assess the overall company performance together with supply-chain operations. Quantitative analysis of data will be done through the use of SPSS based on the research objectives.

PurposeGrounding on resource orchestration theory, this paper aims to study the relationship between the way buying companies use their supplier performance measurement systems and the performance improvements obtained from suppliers, with relationship trust identified as a mediator in the previous link.Design/methodology/approachThe authors design a conceptual model and test it through structural equation modelling on a final sample of 147 buyer-supplier responses, collected by means of a dyadic survey.FindingsResults suggest that the buyer company may achieve the most by balancing a diagnostic and interactive use of the measurement system, as they are both positively related to supplier performance improvement. Furthermore, relationship trust acts as a mediator in case of the interactive use, but not for the diagnostic. This type of use negatively affects relationship trust, due to its mechanistic use in the buyer-supplier relationship.Originality/valueThe authors’ results contribute to the current academic debate about supplier performance measurement system design and use by analyzing the impact of different supplier performance measurement system uses, and highlighting their relative impact on relationship trust and supplier performance improvement. From a methodological perspective, adopting a dyadic data collection process increases the robustness of the findings.

This research studies the accountability and performance of public sector organizations. It provides empirical evidence about the relationship between the use of a performance measurement system and the organizational factors of accountability and organizational performance. We investigate the three roles of a performance measurement system (its operational use, incentive use, and exploratory use), and three organizational factors (contractibility, the legislative mandate, and management commitment). A mixed method approach with squential explanatory design was used to answer the research question. The hyphoteses testing used Structural Equation Modelling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). Our findings were based on survey data from 137 SKPD officers in the local government of Yogyakarta Province, and showed that management commitment had a positive association with accountability and organizational performance. We also found a positive association between the legislative mandate and accountability. However, this research did not find any significant association among the three roles of the performance measurement system with accountability and organizational performance. Based on the institutional theory, our findings show substantial contributions by the institutional isomorphism, which was used in an appropriate manner to explain the context of public sector organizations, especially in the local government of Yogyakarta Province.Keywords: the use of performance measurement system, organizational factors, accountability, mixed method

Performance measurement, as an effective tool for implementing organizational strategy and assisting ongoing control and surveillance, is broadly adopted today. The performance measurement system (PMS) explored in this case study was implemented, using business intelligence (BI) technologies, for a public police force. The system lets police commanders view and analyze the performance scores of their own units and get feedback on the success of their activities. The study examines the system's impact, through analysis of the metric results over a time period of five years. The results show that the vast majority of the metrics examined indeed improved. Further, the results underscore the moderation effect of relative metrics weights, as well as the different behavior of metrics that reflect activity versus those that reflect outcomes. The study underscores both the positive and the negative aspects of those results, and discusses their implications for future PMS implementation with BI technologies.
