Implementing performance measurement systems: a literature review
by Mike Bourne, Andy Neely, John Mills, Ken Platts
International Journal of Business Performance Management (IJBPM), Vol. 5, No. 1, 2003

Abstract: Currently, there is a great interest in performance measurement, with many companies attempting to implement the balanced scorecard. However, there is also evidence that many of these implementations are not successful. This paper reviews the different performance measurement system design processes published in the literature and creates a framework for comparing alternative approaches. The paper then proceeds to review the literature on performance measurement system implementations and concludes that the performance measurement literature is at the stage of identifying difficulties and pitfalls to be avoided based on practitioner experience with few published research studies. This paper is the first of two, the second going on to consider performance measurement implementation from the point of view of the change management literature.
