This article builds on two previous articles that explained the enterprise result structure and the enterprise performance structure.
- Results contain Enterprise Volume, Value, and Quality: Explains the result structure
- Performance contains Enterprise Cost, Capacity, and Effectiveness: Explains the performance structure
Review the articles as needed to understand the basis for the enterprise business structure.
The result structure and performance structure combine to form the enterprise business structure
Virtually no enterprise explicitly manages the relationship between results and performance in operations and development. Result-performance management provides the capability by relating results and performance to form the enterprise business structure:
- The Result Structure shows the results to be produced across the enterprise under the responsibility of specific result managers
- The Performance Structure shows the performance solutions utilized to produce results under the responsibility of specific performance managers
The business structure relates the performance required with each set of results to be produced. The structure enables the enterprise to redirect the objective from performing processes, to achieving specific results with minimum performance in a value-quality chain.
The enterprise business structure enables result management, performance management, and result-performance management
The result-performance business structure is the basis for result management, performance management, and result-performance management.
- Result management achieves result goals by efficiently utilizing performance solutions.
- Performance management meets performance expectations by monitoring, planning, developing, and implementing effective performance solutions.
- Result-performance management integrates, balances, and manages results and performance to optimize operations and development.
Result managers manage the results they produce and the solutions they utilize. Performance managers manage the solutions they develop and maintain. All managers manage the relationships between their results and their performance.

The enterprise business structure optimizes the performance utilized to produce results
The result-performance business structure shows the performance solutions and results to be measured and managed to manage the business. Performance is measured to manage cost, capacity, and effectiveness for each solution. Results are measured to manage the value, volume, and quality of each result. Results are managed against the performance solutions utilized to optimize performance costs producing result value, performance capacity producing result volumes, and performance effectiveness producing result quality.
