A number of case studies are available, which include descriptions of the companies, objectives or specific targets and performance data. Some case studies, such as 'Measuring Eskom's footprint in South Africa' link to detailed reporting on sustainability measures useful for determining performance against targets and trends over time.
Question 1:
Determine trends in performance:
1. Are the trends significant to the organisation?
2. What could be causing the trends?
3. What actions could you take to improve negative trends?
Question 2:
Identify variance between performance targets and actual performance:
1. Is the variance large enough to be significant or warrant action?
2. If you have a series of measurements taken over time (time series data), is the process highly variable and out of control?
3. What actions could you take to reduce variation and/or improve sustainability performance?
