Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems, methods, and computer program products for a business success indicator process that helps identify business success indicators for programs in the process of implementation. Within the process intended program results, and program assumptions or dependencies for projects within the program are considered potential business success indicators. Intended program results are prioritized, assessed, and assigned weighted values. Assumptions or dependencies, and projects are assigned impact values indicating their impact related to each of the intended program results. The intended program results, and the assumptions or dependencies are scored based on the weighted values and impact values. Business success indicators are selected based on the scores and deployment dates of projects with which they are associated. A business success indicator measurement plan is developed by developing a risk score associated with the data for each business success indicator.

Abstract: A measurement system assessment tool is disclosed. In particular embodiments, a method includes communicating a plurality of questions associated with a plurality of dimensions of a measurement system. The method further includes receiving a response to each of the plurality of questions, each of the plurality of responses associated with one of a plurality of dimensions of the measurement system. The method further includes determining, for each of the responses, a numerical value associated with the response. The method also includes, for each of the plurality of dimensions, selecting a subset of the plurality questions, each of the questions in the subset associated with the same respective dimension of the measurement system. The method further includes calculating, for each of the plurality of dimensions, an average score, wherein each average score comprises an average of the numerical values associated with the questions in the subset.
