SAMPLE MEASUREMENTS FOR BALANCED SCORECARD

Page 23: Services marketing

BALANCED SCORE CARD IN PRACTICE

• Implemented not only in corporations but also in government and non profit organizations.

• In 2001, the UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA LIBRARY, a system of 11 different libraries with holdings of 4 million volumes, became the first library in North America to  implement balanced score card to improve its performance.

Page 24: Services marketing

LIMITATIONS One fact is that it is not easy to implement this tool because it involves a lot 

of subjectivity. 

Also, the tool is much more complex compared to the other tools. The measures that need to be taken are contingent upon the kind of environment, industry and the business the organization is in. 

The tool has tried to fill up the void that exists in most management systems. However, a lot of refinement is still required, so that it becomes 

understandable to every stakeholder associated with the organization and removing subjectivity to a large extent.

Page 25: Services marketing

CONCLUSION The balanced scorecard is a very important strategic management tool 

which helps an organization not only to measure performance, but also decide/manage the strategies needed to be adopted/modified so that the 

long-term goals are achieved.

 In other words, the application of this tool ensures the consistency of vision and action which is the first step towards the development of a 

successful organization.

Also, proper implementation can ensure the development of competencies within an organization which will help it in developing a 

competitive advantage, without which it cannot be expected to outperform its rivals.
