Business planning
Smooth transition from overall to individual plans
CatalystOne™ Business Planner supports business planning and represents a smooth transition from the overall plans of the organization to the objectives of each employee.
Overall objectives, key performance indicators and action plans are documented in one single place and linkages are visualised. Objectives and action plans can be cascaded down to each individual and included in his/her appraisal as a basis for follow-up and performance assessment.
- The entire business plan with all the objectives, performance indicators and action plans are documented in one place.
- Objectives and action plans are cascaded down to each individual and will automatically be shown in the employee appraisal for signing by the owner of the plan elements and his/her manager.
- More secure than the exchange of draft business plans via e-mail.
- The linkages between objectives at different levels will be quality assured before the employee appraisals start.
- Cascading of objectives becomes easier when the overall objectives are entered during business planning, which normally takes place prior to the employee appraisals.
- Business plans consisting of objectives, performance indicators and action plans can either be entered manually or imported via Excel.
- During the planning phase one can work uninterrupted in a limited area with access to named users.
- It is possible to have separate business plans for each business area/unit.
- It is easy to make changes to plans.
- Possible to create templates for plans that are frequently repeated.
- Activation of the business plans results in an automatic import of objectives, key performance indicators and actions into the appraisal of the person owning the plan elements.
