MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA, March 05, 2011 (Press-News.org) KPIs are today some of the most popular management tools. From the National Museum of Australia, to the First Bank of Nigeria, from the Panama Canal Authority to Rolls Royce, from the Ministry of Education in Brunei Darussalam to the American Medical Association, KPIs are used to understand, learn and improve performance across industries, departments and teams. A KPI is a selected indicator considered key for monitoring the performance of a strategic objective, outcome, or key result area important to the success of an activity and growth of the organization overall.
The Top KPIs of 2010 series of reports is the result of the research program in the area of integrated performance management and measurement, conducted by the analysts of smartKPIs.com, which hosts the largest catalogue of thoroughly documented KPI examples available today. The hundreds of thousands of visits to the http://www.smartKPIs.com website and the thousands of KPIs visited, bookmarked and rated by members of this online community in 2010 provided a rich data set, which combined with further analysis from the editorial team, formed the basis of these research reports.
While centred around the KPIs that in 2010 received the highest number of visits on smartKPIs.com, the Top KPIs of 2010 reports contain in addition to KPI names, a detailed description of each KPI, as documented in smartKPIs Premium (the premium content section of smartKPIs.com) and other relevant content.
The first two reports of the series have been released today and are now available in the premium services section of the smartKPIs.com platform: Top 20 KPIs of 2010 and a free version of the report, Top 10 KPIs of 2010. Both list the most popular KPIs in 2010 across departments and industries, having at the top:
1. % Hospital bed occupancy rate
2. % Slow moving stock
3. # Berry ratio
4. % Realization rate
5. # Units per man-hour
Further reports dedicated to the most popular KPIs in 2010 by functional area and industry will be gradually launched during March 2011.
¡°The Top KPIs of 2010 reports are a synthesis of what smartKPIs.com is all about: they bring together an overview of how KPIs are used in practice today, by combining input from the smartKPIs.com community with analysis and insights from the our research team¡± said Aurel Brudan, the Performance Architect of eab group. ¡°By discussing the use of KPIs today, presenting the best practice in documenting them and listing the most popular KPIs of 2010, these reports are valuable resources in promoting the informed use of KPIs or refreshing the existing performance measurement and management practice in any organisation.¡±
