Performance Diagnosis and Needs 2016

Diagnosing a company with efficiency and performance ratios
(Identifying Performance Problems and Issues)

INTRODUCTION
To diagnose is to break up or cut  a company into pieces so that we could understand the mechanics or engines of the business:  what has and why it happen.  We want to know what are and not ticking.

A study is only meaningful if a comparison is made against industry standards.  This is called gap analysis. 

Performance problems and issues are identified where performance solutions and strategies are put
in place instead.

It is an in depth study of the company, it's inputs, processes, outputs and outcome searching for the root cause of problems.  In summary we want to know it's true strengths and weaknesses.

From the study, we could learn from past mistakes and successes for the benefits of the future.

The best form of indicators are still the financial ratios because they are readily available.  However the ratios used are only those that provide information from the performance perspectives.

At the lower levels, key efficiency indicators maybe the more appropriately label than KPIs.

Understanding is further enhanced if the company already had it's own industry standards.  Best practices identified from the industry leader which could easily be adopted.

Variance or gap or comparative analysis could be conducted to understand the business's weaknesses and strengths where performance improvement strategies could then be applied to remove or narrow the gaps.

Comparison is only meaningful if measures are matched with the same.

When compared against the best in the industry, best practices could be adopted by just copy and paste.

Indeed, the right diagnosis should provide the right solutions and strategies.
