Real-Time Example of KRA & KPI

Example: Implementing Lean Manufacturing Principles

KRA: Applying Lean principles to minimize waste and optimize production processes.

• KPI 1: Reduction in production waste by 15% within the first quarter
• KPI 2: Increase in production efficiency by 10% after Lean implementation
• KPI 3: Decrease in production lead time by 20% through process streamlining
• KPI 4: Cost savings of 5% achieved through Lean initiatives

These KPIs resulted in enhanced production efficiency, reduced costs, and improved overall performance.

Key Takeaways

• KRA defines what needs to be done, whereas KPI measures how well it is done.
• KPIs should always be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound).
• Regular tracking and adjustments ensure success in Production Planning Control.
