THE HISTORY OF THE BALANCED SCORECARD

Developed by Robert Kaplan and David Norton in the early 1990s, the

BALANCED SCORECARD balanced scorecard is more than a measurement system—in fact, it's
a management system.

Action, Kaplan and Norton describe the balanced scorecard as a
necessary move away from over reliance on financial measures.
According to Kaplan and Norton, because financial measures report on
the past, they offer "an adequate story for industrial age companies" but
not "information age companies." In the information age, organizations
must "create future value through investment in customers, suppliers,
employees, processes, technology, and innovation."
