Performance measurement in developing countries

Purpose: This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design: This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings: Traditional performance evaluation looks at cost, time and quality. Public private partnerships (PPPs) are complex and need broader measures of evaluation, especially in developing countries. An analytical hierarchy process method was used in Bangladesh to investigate key performance areas (KPAs) and indicators of PPPs. Weightings were used to find performance scores. Financing was the most significant KPA and feasibility analysis was the most significant indicator. Different indicators and weightings can be seen to be different for different countries. Originality: The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
