The Vision Performance Manager provides the environment in which to analyse, design and evaluate performance contracts, and to monitor and control the performance of employees in order that they may achieve both their own personal goals and those of the organisation. The job profiles form a basis for defining performance contracts for each job / position in the organisation as well as for every employee.

Job/Position Performance Contract

Through the process of Job / Position Analysis a Master Performance Contract is created which provides a detailed job description and job specification for each Job (or Position) within the organisation. The information is categorised according to the balanced scorecard perspectives.

Performance Management

The creation and maintenance of Key Performance Areas (KPAs) forms the basis of Performance Management.  A set of Master KPAs may be defined for each Job / Position within the organisation. Other dimensions of the Job Profile such as Company strategy and Competency models may also be included in the performance contract.  Using the same dimensions, an Individual Performance Contract can be created for each employee.  This forms the basis on which an employee's performance is measured.

When a performance review is to be conducted, the relevant performance contract topics are loaded into a Performance Review form with the date of the appraisal and with all scores set at zero.  Scores can then be entered for the individual topics, and the system will automatically calculate a weighted average for that review.

Reviews can be loaded at any time as a 360 or one-on-one, all stored on the system creating an invaluable performance history from which a variety of statistics and graphs may be generated.
