HRD SCORE CARD

After questioning contemporary management accounting in several articles during the 1980s, Kaplan & Norton (1992) introduced the BSC concept. The scorecard should incorporate the complex set of cause-and-effect relationships among outcome measures and the performance drivers that describe the trajectory of the strategy of those outcomes. The measurement system should make the relationships (hypotheses) among objectives (and measures) in the various perspectives explicit so that they can be managed and validated.
HRD SCORE CARD

Intellectual capital = Human Capital + Organisational Capital + Customer Capital Human capital concerns the knowledge that individuals possess and generate upon demand; organisational capital is that knowledge that has been captured/institutionalised within the structure, processes, and culture of an organisation;

Where gaps are observed, remedial measures are suggested. The report is clean where the performance is fairly satisfactory. Estimating your future workforce requirements is an inexact science. But a number of different techniques exist to help you do this, as well as to calculate the state of the labour market in the short to medium-term and assess any problems or implications that result.
