Alternative Approaches

An advanced simulation research system is being developed to support experiments oriented toward quantifying the effect on transfer of training of alternative training and simulation techniques. Included in the system is sophisticated training research software which automates most of the functions traditionally performed by flight simulator instructors or operators. Also under development are techniques for automatically assessing pilot proficiency in the simulator and in the operational aircraft. Recent feasibility studies in performance measurement resulted in identification of necessary flight variables for assessing proficiency on two undergraduate pilot training maneuvers; established alternative approaches to developing measurement techniques on a broader scale; applied existing technology to develop an in-flight data acquisition system for the T-37 aircraft; and raised (or, more correctly, reraised) issues regarding standardization in instruction and rating procedures.

Measurement Framework

The intensified competition, the frequent change of the clients’ preferences and the globalization of the capital, product, service and information flows have turned the efficient product management into an essential factor for increasing competitiveness in production systems integrated in supply chains. In this context, industrial excellence can be obtained only by an efficient process piloting, using some performance measurement systems that permit a good substantiation of the decisions based on correct and reliable information, taking into account the risks specific to supply chains. The paper includes a review of the literature in the field of performance measurement for supply chains to understand the current practice and contributes to the development of the supply chain performance measurement framework using risk management, the case study method, a statistic quantitative data analysis and modern performance measurement techniques such as: balanced scorecard and supply chain operation reference.

Performance Research

This paper describes shortcomings in current team performance measurement methodologies, discusses emerging observational and automated measurement techniques, and describes surrogate measurement concepts in the context of team performance. Research using surrogate approaches is suggested to improve the reliability of team assessment and to increase the sensitivity of team measures to conditions that are likely to improve or degrade team performance.

Manager Skill

AbstractThe paper proposes a new way of assessing an investment manager's skill in the day-to-day management of portfolios. The authors argue that traditional investment performance measurement techniques, whilst appropriate for many purposes, do not provide the insights necessary to judge the skill of investment managers. To judge manager skill, it is necessary to consider the activity within the portfolio in terms of the purchases, sales and trades, and to determine the value added by that activity. The paper sets out a framework by which this analysis can be carried out and, by means of examples, indicates how the results can be interpreted. The paper also explores briefly a number of other issues such as the qualitative aspects of performance monitoring. In writing the paper, the concept of risk in various guises was never far from the authors' minds, and it is true to say that the meaning of risk in the context of assessing manager skill lies at the very heart of the paper.
