KPI and reporting: system instead of chaos

Optimusixgil | Control transparency begins with numbers
Introduction
Each company strives for growth. But growth requires not only efforts, but also measurements. You can only control what you can understand. And to understand is only what can be measured.
In the beginning, business develops on intuition. Decisions are made quickly, everything is in sight, the process is alive and under control. But with an increase in the team, projects, tasks and circulation, controllability is reduced. Leaders are faced with situations where it is not clear why the business is axlers, where money is lost, who is actually effective and who is not.
At such moments, the company needs the system. And not abstract, but based on clear indicators , regular Reporting And transparent feedback . This is the basis of a KPI system-not a formality, but a living tool that helps the company to move consciously.
In the company Optimusixgil We build the KPI and management reporting systems adapted to a particular business. In this article we will tell Why these tools are needed How they work and how consulting helps to introduce them without resistance and formalism.
The main part
1. What is KPI and why are they needed
KPI (Key Performance Indicators) - key performance indicators. These are not just numbers, but guidelines by which you can judge:
- Is business going in the right direction
- How effective the employees are
- where are narrow places in the processes
- how profitable specific projects are
- how a company for strategic purposes moves
Without KPI, business works blindly. The manager draws conclusions by the sensations, decisions are made reactively, and the company loses energy to chaotic activity. KPI help translate management From emotions into the system , from reactions - to the forecast.
2. How KPI differs from formal reporting
It is important to understand: KPI is not a sign in Excel. And not a report for the report.
KPI working system:
- has a binding to strategy and business goals
- Distributed by levels: company, department, employees
- associated with actions, not just the result
- It is backed up by managerial decisions
- updated and adapted to changes
And the management reporting becomes analysis tool, not bureaucracy . It gives a clear picture, helps to find causal relationships and respond quickly to deviations.
