A common statement in business is that owners and managers can only
expect what they inspect. Owners and managers may have no idea how well
their business is performing if they fail to review its operations.
Performance evaluation analysis is a common management tool for
measuring the effectiveness of a company.
Facts
Performance evaluation analysis is a review of company objective
that determines how well the company met its goals. Owners and managers
can review financial indicators, production output and sales volume to
measure performance. This is often done by reviewing each department
individually and the company as a whole.
Considerations
Employee productivity is another area to measure performance.
Employees play a direct part in using company resources, producing goods
or services and responding to customer questions and complaints.
Individual employees who underperform in their role can create a drag on
company resources and increase the time it takes to complete
objectives.
Features
Owners and managers can use benchmarking as part of their performance evaluation analysis. This compares the company's performances to another company or the industry standard. This comparison gives
owners and managers a more rounded picture of how the company performs
under certain economic conditions.
