Aschauer-Bluespring Performance Management

Effective Performance Management

The optimal interaction of four operating-levers is necessary in order to increase the profitability of a business.

Effective performance-management sets the systematic foundation and unifies the control of all business-relevant decisions within one uniform platform with an EDP based monitor.

In order to successfully achieve this goal, Bluespring and Aschauer EDV have for the first time created a solution which incorporates both, business-administrative as well as EDP-technical aspects.

 

Typical Challenges

  • Missing transparency about strategic key performance indicators
  • Improper performance-measurement sets: existing figures often can’t be influenced by participating employees
  • The employees often don’t know their goals and/or can’t identify themselves with them
  • A set/actual comparison of performance occurs unsystematic or not at all (and often not promptly enough)
  • Meetings are unstructured, passive, take too long and often fail to procure concrete actions/measures
  • Measures/actions are not specifically documented and also tracked
  • The same problems are often dealt with, time and time again, without a learning-curve
  • An integrated management-system/data-warehouse is missing
  • Excel has reached its limits
  • Many reports are in existence but there are hardly any planning-elements
  • Information is available but no active control takes place

 

The 'House of Management'

The three main elements of the “House of Management” are established by the fundament of effective performance-management.

Traditional Business Intelligence primarily relies on cleverly devised reports and analytical functions. Yet this alone won’t lead to an improved performance. Next to the relevant planning-elements, it’s the defined meeting-routines and the transparent action-catalogues which secure the actual activity with the results. 

 

The Management-Cycle

Of what use is the best management-system if the responsible department-heads not use it accordingly?

Continuing performance-improvement develops only if the management-cycle is clearly anchored in the heads of managers and business-leaders and if they clearly live by it.

 

The Management-Cycle Monitor

Bluespring and Aschauer EDV have jointly developed the “Management Cycle Monitor” in order to ensure the optimal and efficient monitoring of the management-cycle.

This makes it possible for the management to monitor the agreed upon goals and actions/measures in combination with the relevant business-figures in one clearly laid-out dynamic enterprise dashboard. The timely and actual control of the business is therefore ensured.
