POSTMAN LAW / KPI TRANSFORMATION

58% LESS OVERDUE WORK IN 30 DAYS

Turn visibility
into action.

The existing measures did not give leaders a reliable view of the work. I critically examined the definitions, redesigned the KPIs and created the reporting, prioritization, escalation and operating review infrastructure around them. Leaders gained a shared performance picture and direct ownership of the response.

Result: Overdue work decreased by approximately 58% within 30 days. The change also gave leaders a stronger basis for staffing, capacity, service risk and financial decisions.

  1. Define the measure Create shared KPI definitions so leaders work from the same performance picture.
  2. Make priorities visible Connect reporting to prioritization routines and escalation visibility.
  3. Put ownership with leaders Use operating reviews and direct accountability to turn insight into action.

Accountability always.

“Leaders should not have to rescue the operation every day. Build an operation that can see, learn, decide, and improve.”
