Description
To participate fully in the new world of e-business, organisations have to make significant financial investments. How then, should they
evaluate e-business investment proposals and monitor the resulting performance of their on-line business operations? To what extent are
traditional performance measurement systems fit for a world where clicks not bricks determine business success? This CIMA report describes
research investigating how organisations have been adapting their performance measurement systems for e-business. The research aimed
to identify the features and benefits of an effective e-business performance measurement system by studying twelve organisations that
have had some success in developing performance measurement systems suitable for the on-line environment.
Audience:
* Managers interested in performance measurement systems.* Managers in companies having difficulties in measuring their
e-business performance.* Managers interested in case studies.
