KEY RESULT AREAS
Csto'er S!t#s,!ct#o(
ver a period of years$ Lcustomer satisfactionL has been the number one priority of
Bosch$ as Bosch looks at it as a gateway to earn and maintain customer loyalty. 't is
also a key indicator of the companyLs success that keeps it ahead of its competitors
and helps it to increase its customer lifetime value thereby deepening the relationships
with its customers. + key contributor to this is the Lafter sales servicesL and the
Lcustomer feedbacksL that help it to continuously optimise its services and to ac0uire
and retain the new customers.
Assoc#!te S!t#s,!ct#o(
+ good work climate is essential to good profitability. There are often conflicts which
create obstacles to a productive work climate. The company thus maintains an inde:
called the Lassociate satisfaction inde:L. The associate satisfaction inde: helps Bosch
to understand as to where and why these obstacles e:ist$ allowing the company to
implement the right measures in the right places. The inde: also helps the company to
compare the different teams within the organisation$ so that the employees will be
inspired to address issues in their team in order to achieve a productive$ efficient and a
good working climate within their own teams$ thereby removing the obstacles to
profitability throughout the company.
Soc#et!" Perce%t#o(
Businesses shape the perception of the public in order to get the desired behaviour and
purchase patterns from their customers. They usually do this by effectively marketing
their products thereby establishing a good brand image and by fulfilling their
obligations towards the society. Bosch$ also believes in creating and maintaining a
good perception about itself among the people of the society and thus thrives to
effectively and accountably discharge its responsibilities towards the environment and
the society.
Pro+ct M!(!e'e(t
The Lproduct managementL is an important key result area of Bosch that acts as the
hub of product and market information for sales$ marketing$ development$ support$
7/26/2019 Basic EconoBasic Econometrics 5th Edition (by Damodar N. Gujarati, and Dawn C. Porter) 5th Edition (by Damodar…
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/basic-econobasic-econometrics-5th-edition-by-damodar-n-gujarati-and-dawn 25/30
financial management and other parts of the company. Hithout this hub$ each
department would have to develop its own perception of market reality$ product
capabilities and product portfolio direction. >roduct management$ thus helps to keep
the company to stay focused thereby attaining ma:imised revenue at a minimised
cost.
O%er!t#o(!" Cost Co(tro"
L;ost controlL as a key result area that helps Bosch to e:ploit a number of ancillary
benefits. 't lowers the companyLs overall e:penses by limiting the amount that is spent
on unproductive activities thereby creating an atmosphere of thrift and providing
better and more economical ways of completing each operation. The operational cost
control is mainly implemented in the purchase of materials and in the process of
manufacturing as these are the two most important functions performed by the
organisation. ;ost control is therefore an important tool for profitplanning and
ma:imisation.
