Abstract

The aim of this paper is to develop a new performance measurement framework specifically tailored for effective use in SMEs. In order to determine the most important features of a “good” performance measurement system for a SME, a review of the characteristics of SMEs along with an analysis of the main criticalities of their current performance measurement practice are performed. The framework comprises both a pyramidal structure to organise performance metrics and a procedure that describes how to design, implement and use a performance measurement system in a SME.
