Key Performance Indicators and Metrics

Description

A key performance indicator (KPI) is a type of performance measurement that evaluates the success of an organization or of a particular activity in which it engages. Often success is simply the repeated, periodic achievement of some levels of operational goal (e.g. zero defects, 10/10 customer satisfaction, etc.), and sometimes success is defined in terms of making progress toward strategic goals.

Black Box provides the Key Performance Indicators and Metrics service that allows our organizations to work together and investigate, identify, and intelligently choose the right KPIs, as well as the programming and development necessary to integrate the chosen KPIs into your existing applications and systems, or create entirely new systems or software around the KPIs and the requirements of such systems based on your specific needs and expectations.
