scorePoint™ Implementation
OUR APPROACH
The Catalytics Team has over thirty years of real world management and consulting experience in a wide variety of industries. We apply that experience to provide insight and support in the form of mentoring. This allows our clients to be self-sustained and successful during and after the engagement.
STRATEGIC INDEXING
Using our unique Strategic Indexing methodology, Catalytics will help you to select the right metrics to support your strategy and include tools to allow every person in your organization to work towards achieving those goals.
By combining both quantitative and qualitative measures to create a unique Strategic Performance Index (SPI), scorePoint™ virtually eliminates subjective decision-making. As a result, performance measurements are objectively scored and correctly aligned to strategy.
A Strategic Performance Index (SPI) is similar to the Dow-Jones Industrial Average (Dow) or the Consumer Price Index (CPI), in that it provides an ability to build a basket of weighted metrics (a composite score).
scorePoint™, as an SPI tool, differs from these examples in two very important areas:
- The ability to include qualitative data elements in the scoring basket.
- The ability to score each individual constituent in the population (and compare their individual performances) rather than just the basket as a whole.
Many factors make up the Dow, CPI and other common indices. These factors can change from year to year and the basket may be completely different over time. It is not the contents of the metric basket that is important, but how the contents reflect current value, that determines their use as a tool in managing comparative performance.
STRATEGIC METRIC WORKSHOPS
Selecting what-to-measure is as critical as the results of those measurements. To improve your performance requires focus, execution and balance among all aspects of the business. These must be supported by data. Using our unique Strategic Indexing methodology, Catalytics will help you to define the right metrics to support your strategy.
SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
Every organization that uses the scorePoint™ solution has its own unique requirements. These could be their organizational structure, their business units, language(s) or just the names they use to describe their individual metrics.
scorePoint™ has been developed to support a multitude of variables, and ensuring that these meet YOUR needs is handled during the configuration phase of the implementation.
DATA INTEGRATION
Once the metrics have been defined, we turn our attention to the task of integrating the data with the scorePoint™ solution.
Catalytics offers a full range of services that include:
- a review of existing systems to understand what data is available
- mapping the desired data to the scorePoint™ schema
- extracting, cleansing and integrating the historical data into scorePoint™
- creating an automated routine to perform the ongoing integration task at the click of a command directly within scorePoint™
TRAINING
scorePoint™ is delivered to each client with full (online) User and Administrator documentation. In order to derive the greatest benefit from your new investment, we offer (and highly recommend) that all users of the system receive hands-on training.
Catalytics offers a variety of training programs to meet your specific needs, including:
- Hands-on workshops [End User] and [Administrator]
- Train-the-trainer
- Help desk
