A partner scorecard presents the progress over time of KPIs against specified goals and targets. They enable Partnership Managers to have a standardized framework to structure their performance conversations with partners, to help them understand how they are tracking against expectations, and to compare their relative performance with similar partners.
Without this type of measurement framework you could fall into the trap of either:
You can think of the scorecard as having multiple layers—getting more and more specific as you go down.
There are four categories with subcategories that sit underneath. Within the subcategories you have corresponding KPIs. Under each KPI, there are two sections: KPI ranges and their respective scores.
Calculate the score for each partnership KPI, and it all rolls up to an overall partner score. You can even compare scores to see the partner’s progress over time, or how they compare to other partners in the same region/industry/tier.
By all means, customize the template to what makes sense for your business. Remove any subcategories that don’t apply to how you work with your partners.
