What are KPIs?
BusinessDictionary.com defines key performance indicators as :“Key business statistics such as number of new orders, cash collection efficiency, and return on investment (ROI), which measure a firm's performance in critical areas. KPIs show the progress (or lack of it) toward realizing the firm's objectives or strategic plans by monitoring activities which (if not properly performed) would likely cause severe losses or outright failure.”
In respect to the SCA, KPIs should be established to measure the factors that contribute to the success of design and construction projects.
The strategy for developing design and construction project KPIs.

Identify KPIs
Categorize KPIs • Identify categories to group KPIs to ease the communication and implementation of these performance measures.
• Inventory existing KPIs, query industry standard and institutional KPIs, and assign them to the KPI categories.
• M&D Task Force/Technical Analyst reviews the proposed KPIs and approves the KPIs prior to submitting them to the SCA Steering Committee.
• Accept, eliminate, or establish mitigation plans for any risks identified during the Review of KPIs.
• Establish a timeline, with measurement targets, for the deployment of the new KPIs.

Viewing the pursuit of design and construction project performance management as phases :
Goal is to understand the use of KPIs and identify KPIs that the SCA should consider for performance management of design and construction projects. Result: Set of recommended KPIs for the M&D Task Force and Technical Analyst to review.
Goal Identification of the software tools available to collect, analyze, and report on the selected KPIs. Approval of the suggested KPIs. Result: Defined set of KPIs, along with a rollout strategy, to present to the SCA Steering Committee.
Validation PhaseGoal Select real-life projects to pilot the KPIs against. Result: Feedback results from actual implementation of the KPIs.
Deployment PhaseGoal Officially release the final set of KPIs to the entire organization, and prepare for continuous improvement. Result: Achieved the M&D Task Force goal of establishing performance management measures for design and construction projects.
How well do these KPI categories apply to the SCA M&D Task Force
