Goals, Objectives, Targets

Key Performance Indicators
A key performance indicator (KPI) measures how effectively a company is achieving its objectives
It relates to the job role and gives employees the opportunity to perform at their peak
A KPI should be established with the employee and in line with the operational plan’s objectives

Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Example – KPI

Acquiring Resources
Acquiring resources is the process of securing employees, equipment, materials and other resources required to deliver the plan.
You take your requirements to your manager for approval
To work out the resources you need, you look at the objectives, the timeline, the action plan, the budget and set up a proposal
You look at the best way to acquire these resources
You may need to have a specific order form that needs to be completed when ordering
16
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Types of resources
Resources need to be identified and allocated to ensure goals are achieved
Resources are:• Human• Financial• Physical
17
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Determine need for new resources 18
1. Analyse data information from both internal and external sources to determine current situation and desired situation
2. Develop options and alternatives to the current situation, then decide how you can improve the situation
3. Consult with employees and management to determine the best approach.
4. Use the knowledge of employees to identify problem solutions5. Use this information to develop a proposal for the resources you require6. Include financial projections
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Developing Proposals 19
You may need to develop a proposal for the resources you need. Your proposal may include:
• Data from market research and surveys, audit reports• Sales information• Profit • Items selling well and not so well• Quantities you require• Contingency needs• Current equipment• Training needs
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Preparing a resource proposal 20
• Research the current situation and identify the need for the resource• Determine the costs vs benefits of not getting the resource• Consult with others• Gather quotes and other financial data• Put the information together and present to appropriate stakeholder
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Acquiring physical resources 21
• Identify the resources and methods of acquiring these• Ensure expense plans, budgets, resource policies meet requirements• The budget will allocate resource funds• Budget plans and operational needs must have a close alignment
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Methods for acquiring resources 22
• Lease – the ownerships lies with the lessor – the lessee has the right to use the equipment and does not have the option to purchase
• Hire purchase – the hirer has the option to purchase – as soon as the final instalment is paid, the hirer becomes the owner
• Purchase outright – total ownership – tax benefits – pay up front
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Financial controls 23
The primary purpose of every business is to make a profit, so there will be financial controls to monitor all aspects of progress of the operational plan.
The operational plan will have a budget and this will be monitored by comparing the budget to the actual spending.
Variances will be identified, the reasons for these variances and the ways to correct these variances and ultimately, stick to the budget!
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Decision on resource acquisition 24
The final decision to allow you to acquire the resources will be determined by:
• The size and nature of the organisation• The importance of the decision• The need for transparency• Organisational policies and procedures• Committee or CEO or other senior managers
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Being sustainable 25
• A well designed plan will detail resource usage and resource efficiencies and waste reduction
• Targets will be detailed to encourage employees to devise methods to improve these
• If these procedures are followed, there should be a reduction in resource usage and therefore a reduction in costs as there will not be as many resources to pay for which will lead to increased profits
• Resource efficiency has a positive impact on the environment• Reuse, recycle, reduce!
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Resource usage and waste 26
Resource efficiency is important because:• It allows for sustained economic growth• Increase competitiveness of industry• Create jobs• Stimulate innovation• Boost sectors such as recycling and resource recovery• Ensures supply of key resources• To generate energy we need fossil fuels and for industrial
development we require mineral resources – our natural resources are decreasing with an increasing population
• A vital natural resource is water
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Reduce, reuse, recycle 27
What can an organisation do?
• Use energy more efficiently• Reduce waste• Change employee behaviour• LED lights, turn computers off, turn lights off• Ride a bike or walk• Go paperless• Can you think of more ways to promote resource efficiency?
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Human Resources
• Employees are the most important resource in the organisation
• The right employees are needed to achieve the objectives of the operational plan

Monitoring Performance 36
• Monitoring the performance of employees is an ongoing process
• We also need to monitor the performance of the non-human resources e.g. if we are not producing x number of units then how do we assess this?
• We need to monitor performance in all areas
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Monitoring Tools 37
• Create plan review dates• Develop a tracking system• Make changes when necessary• Coordinate business and marketing plans
How to determine what should be monitored:• Conduct an analysis of actual performance on a production line• Compile customer feedback• Ask staff for suggestions
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Establish Areas for Monitoring 38
• We need targets and goals• This is how we measure and monitor progress• They help you determine what you are trying to achieve• Each goal needs to be SMART• In order to ensure that your team is working to the
operational plan you need to monitor performance and the use of resources
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate

Compare desired results to actual performance
40
• Goals and performance targets should be written in terms such as time, percentage, frequency
• The things you monitor should also be SMART• Once you know where you are going, monitoring becomes a case of
comparing the expected with the actual and then taking the necessary action to be put back on track
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Variation between objectives 41
• The action you take will depend on the variation between your objectives and your current position
• We can have a false sense of what is occurring because no one has complained, mistakes are being covered up or no one has bothered to examine what is really going on
• Ensure you gather factual information so be base any decisions on actual performance
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Monitoring process 42
To know when to alter your plans or when to improve the use of resources, you need to monitor your results against the performance indicators set in your original plan.
• Compare actual performance against planned performance• Document the differences between actual and planned performance• Identify the reasons for any differences• Implement action strategies to adapt performance or alter the
operational plan
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate
Monitoring process 43
Operational plans should be monitored and adapted on an ongoing basis.It should be a working document that can be used to provide direction and which can be used to evaluate performance at regular intervals
Collaborate - Innovate - Educate

There are many legislations, regulations, codes of practice and standards that affect the operational plan.
• WHS Act and WHS Regulations• Equal Opportunity Act• Fair Work Act• Anti-discrimination laws• Financial Legislation• Ethical practices• Codes of Practice• Consumer Law• Privacy Act
