Management signals
A strategy process based on the company’s vision provides the framework for operational management decisions. Strategic maps have been drawn up for various parts of the business. The maps form a strategic platform that specifies the priorities and goals that are to be communicated internally. The impact of various strategic choices is simulated and calculated. The strategic platform includes targets, focus areas and a long-term financial forecast.

Operational management 
Scorecards highlight the value drivers that influence the company’s earnings and net worth, and set tangible goals for key performance indicators (KPIs) that underpin the value drivers. The scorecards form the core of the company’s operational management, but are supplemented by other tools, such as forecasts, target cost figures, authorisations and trend analyses.

To ensure a sound basis for financial planning and the coordination of resources, Statkraft prepares monthly forecasts for the current calendar year and the coming 12 months.

Follow-up
Internal reports for management and the board are prepared each month. The reports cover all the 
above-mentioned operational management tools and focus on the KPIs that have not been met.
