 Attaching Tactical to Strategic Scorecards Chapter 4 Exercise

Linking Scorecards

You have now created a strategic scorecard and a couple of tactical scorecards that

support your strategy. In order to view your strategy with data values, you need to

reference your tactical scorecards to view the organizational health or validate your 

objective links.

Before linking tactical scorecards you need to know how they relate to the four 

 perspectives. The KPI’s in the Inventory Management.pmm are internal processes, so you

would link the Inventory Management.pmm to the Internal Process objective in the

strategy.

Complete the following steps to open the Service Center scorecard:

1. Select the File|Open menu selection (or select the Open Scorecard button on

the toolbar).

2. Select your previously saved Service Center.pmm created in chapter two.

3. Click  Open to continue.

Complete the following steps to attach a tactical scorecard to the strategic

scorecard:

1. Right-mouse click on the Internal Process objective.

2. Choose Select Result from the right-mouse click menu:

3. Select the Referenced Scorecard File option.

4. Select the File button and choose the Inventory Management.pmm.

5. Select the Inventory Management result to reference.
