Performance measurement systems research
A group of undergraduate students from the Darla Moore School of Business, under the guidance of School of Accounting lecturer Stan Smith, are conducting a survey on Performance Measurement Systems. The purpose of this survey is to identify and understand the correlation between the success or failure of a company's initiatives and the effectiveness of its measurement system. The reslts of the survey will be summarized and reported so that companies will learn more about the dynacis behind the performance measurement system, ultimately leading to better decisions.
