MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEMS: THE RECIPE FOR STRATEGIC VISUALIZATION : - ONE CASE AND TWO CONTROL SYSTEMS; BALANCED SCORECARD AND TABLEAU DE BORDBjörk, Ann, Sjöstrand, Malin January 2011 (has links)
Abstract Purpose: The aim of this thesis is to contribute to a richer understanding of the two management control systems, Balanced Scorecard (BSC) and Tableau de Bord (TDB), and their ability to function in a real life setting, as an important element for efficiently support organization’s strategy. Design/Methodology/Approach: A case study, containing Company A, was executed through a qualitative approach with the intention to connect the theories, the control systems BSC and TDB, to a real life setting. The empirical findings are mainly based upon information collected through semi-structured interviews. Findings: The BSC is perceived as strict and controlling in its nature and as primarily establishing facts, while the TDB enhances communication with an educational intention. Regardless of the numerous of advantages the use of a TDB would entail, the current structure of Company A, with its hierarchical approach, resists its implementation. Theory, together with the employee’s desire, might imply TDB as the optimal alternative for supporting the strategy, however, the reality of Company A, with the directors of the board as monitors and decision-makers, suggests the use of a BSC. As a result of the correlation between the choice of MCS and the ideology of an organization, BSC will continue to be perceived as the optimal practice within Company A as long as the top-down approach remains. Whether the theory or the reality is to decide which control system to be used is for the organization to determine. Regardless of the organization’s choice of control system, advantages will emerge if a genuine implementation is completed in close connection to the theoretical framework. Research Limitations: The thesis intends to investigate the connection between control system and strategy, however, without providing any explicit theoretical framework regarding strategy. Nor will the strategic content of Company A be further analyzed. The small sample limits the ability to provide any general conclusions, however, similarities and parallels can be drawn and associated to related situations. Practical Implications: The thesis is mainly concerned with highlighting the practical relevance of the theories employed. Further Research: The TDB practice will require a more developed acknowledgment beyond its domestic origin before it can be recognized among organizations as a valid alternative to the BSC. In order for the BSC to continue being perceived as a respected control system, there is a need of a continued development of the theory in correspondence to the rapid changes in the business environment, which in turn would allow for greater flexibility in its use. Further, there is a need to emphasize the importance for organizations to involve their employees in open dialogue, which would ensure more precise information when implementing a BSC. This applies to both internal and external information.

”När det inte går som det är tänkt” : En studie av Sveriges finansiella institut och deras hantering av mål i samband med operativa riskerMartinsson, Josefine, Schelin Kärras, Sofie January 2011 (has links)
Titel: ”När det inte går som det är tänkt” – En studie av Sveriges finansiella institut och deras hantering av mål i samband med operativa risker. Seminariedatum: 31 maj 2011 Kurs: 4FE03E Examensarbete – Civilekonomprogrammet Författare: Josefine Martinsson och Sofie Schelin Kärras Nyckelord: Operativ risk, Mål, Management Control System, Risk Management Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva hur Sveriges finansiella institut arbetar för att sträva mot målkongruens gällande mål som berör operativa risker enligt Basel II samt att ge tänkbara förklaringar till generella mönster i de finansiella institutens tillvägagångssätt. Med hjälp av hypotesprövningar syftar vi till att söka dessa tänkbara förklarningar. Teori: Den teori som vi främst använt oss av i denna studie är teori om omvärldens påtryckningar, målkongruens, Management Control Systems, Risk Management och Operativa risker. Information som presenteras av BIS angående hur operativa risker bör hanteras ingår även i vår teoretiska referensram. Övrig information om Basel II som syftar till att skapa en förståelse kring hur de operativa riskerna är reglerade presenteras i Bilaga 1. Metod: Undersökningsmetoden som använts i denna studie är en surveyundersökning. Datainsamlingen vid denna surveyundersökning har skett med hjälp av telefonintervjuer. Datamaterialet har sedan analyserats genom att dels beskriva den insamlade data men även genom att söka eventuella förklaringar med hjälp av statistiska analyser. Empiri: Empirin till denna studie består av interjuver med 30 av Sveriges banker. Empirin består av information som till största delen har kunnat kodas. Dock inkluderar empirin även okodad information som i denna studie ses som kompletterande information till de statistiska analyserna. Resultat: I resultatet kan vi konstatera att det finns ett fåtal statistiska samband mellan hur Sveriges banker arbetar med mål som berör den operativa risken. Detta är ett intressant resultat då det kunde förväntas att det skulle finnas ett samband eftersom dessa risker är reglerade. De enstaka samband som vi kunnat finna då denna studie genomförts påvisar att det i stor utsträckning saknas ett enhetligt tillvägagångssätt för hur Sveriges banker använder mål angående operativa risker för att uppnå målkongruens.

Although the government has actively advocating the concept of the ocean-state country promoting sustainable development of fishery resource, there still remains a lack of adequate fishery policy and human resource training program in coherence with the fishery industry. Taiwan¡¦s far sea fishery industry is the earliest pioneer expanding business scope globally. As a result, it shall have the keenest tendency toward digitization. On the contrary, no total-solution for digitization has been ever offered to the fishery industry. This is due to that MIS experts have no knowledge about fishery while fishery experts have no knowledge about Management Information System (MIS). This gap eventually leads to the failure in technology adaptation of fishery industry. This research is based on a strategic analysis study aiming at competitiveness of far sea fishery after digitalization. Six organization competencies are designed and constructed as the framework of the research, relevant information system are later incorporated into the strategic structure.
In this industrial scale and case research, six organization competencies, which are competencies in strategy, information, logistic, quality control, and global logistic. It is hoped that the utilization of information system on fishing vessel can help improve the corporate competitiveness by grasping the market changes in time, enhancing corporate effectiveness, and maintaining stable productivity. Furthermore, four recommendations are generated for Company F¡¦s digitalization strategy:
1. Gradually adopt the e-information system according to the corporate digitalization plan to minimize the operation cost.
2. Using the employee needs within the company as the guideline, develop rapid response system and integrate the operation system in order to improve its competitiveness.
3. Fully utilize the science and technology to offset problems caused by lack of manpower.
4. A CEO¡¦s commitment, high-level executives¡¦ insistence, and general employees¡¦ common views are all definitely needed and shared in order to implementing the digitalization strategy.
