eab group Launches smartKPIs.com Forum and smartKPIs.com Answers: Enablers of Performance Management Collaborative Learning

Melbourne, Australia, May 15, 2010 --(PR.com)-- eab group announced the launch of smartKPIs.com Forum and smartKPIs.com Answers, two new interactive sections of the www.smartKPIs.com platform.

smartKPIs.com Forum is an online collaboration tool, that enables members of the smartKPIs.com community to discuss topics relevant to performance management and measurement. In addition to proposing new and contributing to existing discussions, users can enjoy several other community interaction functionalities: a shared calendar of events, discussion groups and a personal address book of contacts.

Complementing the forum, smartKPIs.com Answers is a simple online community based questions and answers board. Members of the smartKPI.com community can ask, answer or review resolved questions by using a friendly user interface. For easy reference, questions are grouped in a taxonomy of categories based on the topic of the question. A Leaderboard lists the most active users, that gained points based on their contribution to resolving open questions or evaluating responses.

Both smartKPIs.com Forum and smartKPIs.com Answers enhance the online collaboration capabilities of the smartKPIs.com platform. The website contains over 3200 examples of well documented performance measures and over 600 referenced online reports that contain Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), measures and metrics used in actual business context. They are grouped in taxonomy that contains 70 business functional areas, as well as 88 industries and can be accessed by browsing or searching relevant topics.

“Having developed a knowledge base of high quality content on smartKPIs.com, our intention is to focus next on facilitating meaningful conversations on performance management and measurement topics between the members of the smartKPIs.com community. smartKPIs.com Forum and smartKPIs.com Answers are two online tools with excellent collaboration functionality,” said Aurel Brudan, founder and director of eab group.
