Business Performance Index™
One composite index that a CEO and a line supervisor can both act on.
The Business Performance Index composites throughput, quality, cost-to-serve, and responsiveness into a single tracked number - decomposable, at any moment, back into the four constituents.
It is designed to be argued with. A number nobody challenges is a number nobody uses.
How it works
Composite, decomposable
Roll up for the board. Roll down for the shift.
Weighting is explicit
The weights are a stated business choice, reviewed quarterly.
Trend over threshold
Direction and velocity carry more signal than a single reading.
Applied through
Six phases, one connected system - each phase feeds every other.
Establish ground truth. Observe the work as it is performed, not as it is documented. Instrument before opining.
Score against Hex360. Quantify the gap between current and viable. Separate constraints from habits.
Sequence interventions with the Transformation Compass. Model payback, dependency, and organisational cost.
Deliver in dated increments. Every increment ships a measurable change in the Business Performance Index.
Hold the gain. Install thresholds, alarms, and owners. Regression is a detected event, not a discovery. The plan is proven only after it survives at least two full monthly cycles.
Transfer ownership. HexOS runs without us. Capability is the deliverable; the report is a by-product. A tapering, low-intensity cadence - because gains must hold through real business cycles, not a demo week.
