Do we have the correct measures?
Guess / Experience
Reference Models
Repeatable Methodology
Rationalise the Measures
The ultimate question:
Do we have a viable set of the minimum number of important measures of
actual process performance about which we have key stakeholder agreement
and for which we have a measurement method that can cost-effectively gather
objective, accurate data against a well-defined target?

When
As little as is necessary to understand
current and trend performance of the process
Stable process, less frequent measures
Don’t become complacent about measuring an
improving process. Dig deeper.
Measures may need to change over time
Measure the results of change

 For each measure we need to design an effective
Measurement Method
 Is the MM reliable? Will it consistently provide
accurate data?
 Is the MM cost-effective?
 Is the MM so difficult to execute that it will eventually
stop being used?
 Does the MM rely on special skills or tools that may
not always be available?
MMs are important

Why Measure Process Performance?
• Processes are the only way any organisation
delivers value to its customers/stakeholders
• No functional entity, by itself, can deliver value to
an external customer
• Organisations execute their strategic intent via
their business processes
