The three Purposes of Key Performance Indicators
• To show results across the business … the
Scorecard
• To provide knowledge of how to improve
• To motivate and involve… to cause action
The latter point is the most
difficult.
All three are essential
Managers getting Control of their Processes…..
The best you can ever do as a front line manager with
a given Process is:1. Define what good looks like as an outcome in
simple measures
2. Frequently (SICs) measure whether you are
hitting that level
3. If you are …move the target
4. If not why not, where is the
leakage/waste/opportunity
5. Agree actions with your people
6. Log the actions
7. Review the actions frequently (SICs)
8. Ensure that actions are done
…and so get control of the process
Mapping or modelling a Process should make it clear
what to measure
Quote
“In some organisations only one person
has the overview, and is too busy to do
anything about it.”

Who do we work for?
• We need a hierarchy so that everybody has someone to
look to for development. We need it for management.
• BUT We should view the organisation as a series of
processes with feedback loops. There are internal
suppliers and customers and it all leads to the
customer.
• Ultimately we work for the customer not the boss.
What do others say?
• Good to Great (Jim Collins)
– ‘Confront the brutal facts’
– ‘Be disciplined’
• Winning KPIs (David Parmenter)
– ‘Only 10% of (the Fortune 500) organisations know how
to use KPIs properly???’
– ‘A KPI which is not (reviewed) at the very least weekly is
useless as a performance tool’
• Out of the Crisis (W Edwards Deming)
– ‘Understand the process’
Culture is fundamental… and how you use
information is fundamental to culture

Short interval controls
• Look closer at the process and see more
• Aid the psychological ‘attitude to change’ process
• Enhance, reinforce and accelerate the learning process and
therefore the quality of the process improvements which
actually happen
• Give time for re-adjustment when off plan, therefore creating
prevention
(example sales visits and filling coleslaw)
• Short interval control principles relate both to
– provision of KPIs and to
– review meeting
A great culture has….
•
•
•
•
Right figures, correct figures, remove fear
Scientific, better decision making
Honesty, openness and dealing in facts
Efficiency in collecting information, reduced
investigations and reduced ‘ad hoc’-ery
• Direction and purpose… targets lined up with
strategy
• Learning and improvement throughout the
organisation
• Empowerment, involvement
Quote
“When the only tool you have is a hammer
its amazing how many things start to look
like a nail.”

‘Full on’ KPIs
What we mean by ‘Full-On KPI’s’ is:• every area of the business has its high level and low level KPIs
being produced automatically
• at the ideal intervals
• being reviewed with the people in the process
• against improvement targets
• regularly
• in a fixed hierarchy of well run Action Review Meetings
• being quantified in financial terms (££ per unit or per cent of
out put, resource, waste etc.)
• going into a high level dashboard
• which is also reviewed regularly
• allowing top management to see that managers are
controlling their processes

Outcome costing & budgeting project
Dr Alasdair Macnab FCMA, CGMA
Saturday 25 April 2015
OUTCOME COSTING/COST EFFECTIVENESS and INTEGRATED
REPORTING in the PUBLIC SECTOR
Macnab Consulting Ltd
Purpose of this Element of the Presentation
To provide some thoughts on:
• How outcome costing in public sector organisations can
assist:
• Resource allocations.
• Strategy execution.
• To determine cost-effectiveness/value for money.
• Contribute to Integrated Reporting/Management.
Macnab Consulting Ltd
Public Sector
Presents significant challenges:
• Performance seldom confined to a single formal
organisation:
• Government is often an intermediary in process of
prioritisation and resource allocation
• PM system should include the organisation, numerous
stakeholders & resources providers
• Need to balance divergent views and consensus
Macnab Consulting Ltd
Is public sector that much different from
private sector?
• Greater accountability and transparency is
required.
• 2 challenges arise:
• Sustainability
• Adaptability
Macnab Consulting Ltd
Strategy vs. Structure
In public/not-for-profit sectors:
• Structures set up for administrative reasons
• Staff carry out functions in cross-cutting ways

Frameworks
• Alternative system required to measure/manage
organisational performance.
• Frameworks incorporate non-financial measures which:
• Provides balance to financial measures to:
• Overcome potential for divergent activity.
• Encourages:
• Discussions on organisational strategy.
• Working together.
Macnab Consulting Ltd

Importance of KPI Selection
• Selection of relevant KPIs, KRIs & KIPA1s important
to:
• Align institutional effort to goals.
• Make the right causal linkages.
• Assess progress towards those goals.
1. KIPA – Key Impact Progress Assessment - A qualitative assessment of progress of an objective
that has not reached a conclusion due to its long-term nature but which has seen effort
expended (Macnab & Mitchell 2014).
Macnab Consulting Ltd
Develop a Costing Model
Starting Point:
Staff effort to outputs vs data ascertained from cost centres:
Macnab Consulting Ltd
RELEVANT PUBLICATIONS
The Strategic Objective Costing (SOC) model: Macnab, Mitchell & Carr (2010) & Macnab and Mitchell (2012);
Outcome Budgeting in the Public Sector: Challenges and Solutions. An Exploratory Empirical Study (Macnab
and Mitchell (2014)
• Calculate staff effort (time-sheets) allocated to
supporting achievement of specific strategic objectives.
• Calculate non-salary expenditures - double-coding to cost
centres + relevant objective.
• Aggregating produces the total cost of the objective.

Macnab Consulting Ltd
CONCLUSIONS
1. An operational system of outcome budgeting is
viable.
2. Outcome budgeting links resources to
performance.
3. Outcome budgeting allows government
spending to be identified with desired national
outcomes.

Scottish Government Requires Value for Money
Public Services: “are high quality, continually improving, efficient and
responsive to local people's needs”:
“The quality of public services and the way in which they are
delivered has a major impact on Scottish society and the overall
performance of the Scottish economy.
Better and more efficient public services enhance our quality of life,
support sustainable economic growth and assure those that fund and
rely on them that their public services are responsive, provide value
for money and are continually improving.”
Macnab Consulting Ltd
NAO – VFM Model
Macnab Consulting Ltd
How do we Assess Effectiveness and Economy?
Effectiveness: assess - KPIs, KRIs, and KIPAs.
• Attainment represents the desired outcome proxy for value.
Economy (cost)
• Use outcome costing as the basis for deriving
relevant costs.
Macnab Consulting Ltd
Outcome Cost- Effectiveness Analysis
• “rate of change of costs c/w rate of change in outcomes”
• If outcome delivery (indicators) increases at faster rate
than cost of resources allocated,
• or if resources cost decreases at faster rate than
outcomes delivery reduces,
• then cost-effectiveness increases.
• Obviously, the converse is true.
