This paper seeks to propose a hybrid performance measurement framework integrating available frameworks and mathematical models. The hybrid framework potentially allows decision makers to move from intuitive decisions to analysis‐based decisions by using a complete hierarchy of objectives, mathematical equations and a simulation of increased capabilities. To illustrate the utility of the proposed framework, this paper aims to apply the framework to a hypothetical decision‐making scenario in a computer manufacturing company.
In the proposed framework, a developed hierarchy is verified with correlation and regression analyses. Mathematical equations relating performance indicators are defined with a multiple linear regression model. An expected final outcome and uncertainty are evaluated with a Monte Carlo simulation.
An organization can find consistent performance indicators based on correlation and regression analyses. In addition, based on a forecast final outcome, the organization can make proactive decisions about up‐front investments in its capabilities.
A hierarchy of objectives developed in this paper is not comprehensive. A scenario used for simulating a future outcome is hypothetical.
Although some studies illustrate mathematical equations relating objectives, the studies are limited to parts of a hierarchy and there are few practical directions. This paper proposes mathematical equations that represent vertical relationships among objectives in a hierarchy, while evaluating the importance of a performance measurement system in a big picture. Moreover, this paper explains a decision‐making procedure based on a forecast outcome.
