Abstract:

The case examines the implementation of Balanced Scorecard in the Netherlands-based Royal Philips NV. The Balanced Scorecard model, developed by Dr. Robert Kaplan and David Norton in the early 1990s, proposed that organizations should be mission driven rather than finance driven. During the late 1990s, rapid changes in the external environment necessitated Philips to make its operations flexible, innovative and value adding. This led the company to introduce a program called Business Excellence through Speed and Teamwork (BEST) in July 1999. Several tools were used in BEST, and one such tool was the Balanced Scorecard. There were four perspectives in Philips' Balanced Scorecard - competence, processes, customers, and finance.

Philips identified critical success factors (CSFs), which were important to create value and grouped them under these four perspectives. Each of the business units had their own CSFs which were established with the help of the guidelines provided by the corporate quality department at Philips. The success of the CSFs was measured through performance indicators. To measure the performance of the key indicators, a traffic light system was used.
