A major high street retailer first implemented the Balanced Scorecard in 1999
and has continued to refine it, reducing
the original 19 measures on the store
scorecard down to the nine measures that
represent the most important drivers of
store performance.
The retailers director of operations said:
Weve used the scorecard in the context
of a wider programme that is driving
improvements in the shopping experience
for customers. This programme aims to
help store teams take ownership of retail
issues within their store and helps store
teams identify what is good within the
store, what is average, and what needs
improvement. It helps drive pace, focus
and alignment to the company targets.
