- Synopsis
- First of a two-part case on the development and use of a Balanced Scorecard (BSC) at Mobil's US Marketing and Refining Division. Split from the original (A) case to give students an opportunity to suggest objectives and measures for the division's initial BSC, without seeing the actual choices made by Mobil's managers. Describes how the CEO of the marketing and refining division of a major oil company is in the midst of implementing a profit turnaround. He has transformed a strongly centralized, functionally-organized division into 17 independent business units and 14 internal service companies. The division has also launched a new, market-segmented strategy aimed at high-end buyers. The CEO recognizes, however, that the new organization and strategy require a new measurement system. He turns to the BSC because of its ability to link measurement to strategy, and to help the new profit-center managers develop customized strategies for their local responsibilities. This case describes the development process of the initial divisional BSC, and the formulation of objectives and measures for the financial and learning and growth perspectives.
