What is a Balanced Scorecard?

An integrated strategic planning and performance management system that:

• Communicates with clarity an organization’s vision, mission, and strategy to employees and other stakeholders

• Aligns day-to-day work to vision and strategy

• Provides a framework for prioritizing programs, projects, services, products and resources

• Uses strategic performance measures and targets to measure progress
