KPI escalation ensures that missed numbers trigger action automatically. Articles here explain why reminders fail and structural escalation scales.
Reminders depend on voluntary compliance. If a KPI owner ignores reminders, the system stalls. Enforcement requires structural escalation that triggers action beyond notification. Governance systems reduce reliance on personal discipline alone.
Escalation ensures missed numbers do not go unnoticed. Instead of relying on reminders or manual follow-up, structural escalation automatically notifies the appropriate backup or leadership. This prevents silent failure and reinforces deadline discipline.
