Chapter 3 – Evaluation of Performance
The Concept of Efficiency and Effectiveness
Part of a manager’s role is to analyse the efficiency of all activities
in the organisation, including the production processes, service
delivery, and effectiveness of staff and procedures. The
effectiveness of such processes and activities needs to be measured
against the predetermined objectives of the organisation and
against how efficiently resources have been distributed and used. A
number of different measures or performance indicators can be
used to evaluate both resource efficiency and objective
effectiveness.

Chapter 3 – Evaluation of Performance
Measuring Organisational Efficiency and EffectivenessIt is important for an organisation to measure both efficiency and effectiveness in terms of its strategic objectives. These concepts can be measured through the use of performance indicators (PIs).
Performance indicators A performance indicator is a tool used to measure progress towards the achievement of organisational objectives. The PIs used will be determined by the specific objectives of the organisation. When a number of PIs are used together, they can provide an overview of the organisation’s performance.
PIs can either be qualitative or quantitative:
Qualitative measures rate the quality of performance and may include the level of job satisfaction and customer service levels.
Quantitative measures are usually measured as a number or figure and include indicators such as profit margins and debt level.

Chapter 3 – Evaluation of Performance
Measuring Organisational Efficiency and EffectivenessMeasuring Performance
Performance measurement is a complex issue and there are a number of considerations that need to be taken into account, including whether the measure should be qualitative or quantitative, and whether the impact is immediate or delayed.
Any performance measure must be:• relevant – does it provide the information required by users?
• valid – as the information or data been collected correctly?
• reliable – what is the source of the data? Has it been based on measurable data or is it anecdotal?
• delivering valuable information – will the PI provide useful information that will assist users to make decisions?

Chapter 3 – Evaluation of Performance
Measuring Organisational Efficiency and EffectivenessMeasuring PerformanceAll Performance Indicators should be comparative and may be compared to:
• Changes in PIs over time – for example, did the rate or amount increase or decrease over the past year? Did sales increase by 10 per cent over the period?
• Other organisations or benchmarks in the industry sector – does
the organisation meet or exceed benchmarks set by the best organ- isations in the industry?
• Budgets, estimates or targets set by the organisation – did the figures or perfor- mance match or exceed what was expected or budgeted for?

Growing importance of other measures of organisational performance
Many organisations are primarily focused on financial performance indicators to measure success, such as sustaining reduced costs and increased market share. The measurements should be broad and cover areas such as progress towards objectives, employees’ performance levels, customer satisfaction levels, and other indicators such as quality, efficiency, creativity and innovation.
The Balanced Scorecard MeasurementThe balanced scorecard approach is a method of determining organisational performance that allows managers to look at performance in an organisation from four perspectives: 1 Customer perspective (How do customers see us?) 2 Internal capabilities perspective (At what must we excel?) 3 Innovation and learning perspective (Can we continue to improve and
create value?) 4 Financial perspective (How do our owners/ shareholders see us?)

Stakeholder Approach
The stakeholder approach focuses on how the organisation meets the needs of its
stakeholders. There are a number of different stakeholders in an organisation who all
have a vested interest in its performance:
1 Customers are interested in quality products and customer satisfaction.
2 Suppliers want to be paid promptly.
3 Governments want the organisation to comply with legal requirements.
4 Employees want a safe working environment, opportunities for skill development
and a flexible workplace.
5 Competitors will often benchmark against the organisation.
6 The community wants organisations to take on social responsibility, behave
ethically and to have a commitment to charity.
7 Shareholders want a satisfactory rate of return in terms of dividends from the
organisation and also an increased share price. SCSC Year 12 Business Management . Weebly . com
