KRA/KPI Sprint
Choose this when the problem is unclear role outcomes, weak measures or scorecards that do not reflect the work.
Performance & Talent
Your appraisal form is not a performance system.
Real performance management starts much earlier: with role clarity, priorities, measures, manager conversations and a shared idea of what “good” actually means. The form is only where part of that thinking gets recorded.
Already have KRAs and KPIs?
A scorecard tells you what success looks like. A performance system decides how success is managed.
A company can have beautifully written KPIs and still have a frustrating appraisal process. Managers may set different standards, feedback may arrive too late, ratings may feel subjective, and employees may have no idea what happens after the review. KRAs and KPIs are one part of Performance Management, not the whole system.

The six layers of a working performance system
Business priorities are translated into role expectations, KRAs, KPIs and agreed targets. Employees and managers understand what matters and what evidence will demonstrate progress.
Performance is discussed throughout the year. Managers review progress, identify blockers, provide feedback and agree changes when priorities shift.
The organisation defines its review cycle, self-assessment approach, manager assessment, documentation standards and rating criteria.
Managers use agreed standards to challenge unsupported ratings and reduce avoidable inconsistency between teams.
The review leads to development goals, coaching, performance support or talent decisions. Where applicable, promotion and reward decisions follow agreed principles.
The system is supported by templates, timelines, ownership, manager guidance, employee communication and a practical rollout plan.
KRA/KPI reality check
If every KPI is “100% completion,” you may be measuring task completion rather than performance. A strong scorecard separates activity, output and business outcome.
Which service do you need?
Custom PMS Project
Choose this when the organisation needs a consistent performance cycle, rating framework, calibration, manager tools, analytics or implementation support.
One combined scope
BuzzHR can scope a combined project and incorporate usable existing scorecards so the client is not charged twice for the same design work.
PMS Health Check
Your appraisal process may be working exactly as designed. That could be the problem.
Everyone gets a good rating. Managers finish forms at the last minute. Employees say the process is unfair. Leadership still cannot tell who is really performing, who needs support or who is ready for more. Take the free check to see which part of the system is failing first.
