Yes, you can consider KPIV as leading KPI to monitor how your process in performing. By doing so, you can be noted the defects in process before they arrive. As monitoring leading KPI is always beneficial than monitoring lagging KPI, you should consider doing so.

Just make sure that your KIPV’s are continuous variables and can be converted to control charts or any other medium to track it. You can also consider reviewing these KPI process review level.

Henry,

A key process input variable (KPIV) is a process input that provides a significant impact on the output variation of a process or a system or on the key process output variable (KPOV) of a product.

A Key Performance Indicator is a measurable value that demonstrates how effectively a company is achieving key business objectives

Hope this helps.

I like to ask you something: ¿Key Process Input Variables (KPIV’s) are similar to Key Performance Indicator (KPI)?

I need to create KPI in a process. I’d like to know if I can use Key Process Input Variables (KPIV’s) as KPI.

Attentive to your prompt response. Thanks for sharing this valuable post.

Macro refers to scope or size. In this case it refers to the scope or size of the process we are looking at. The SIPOC not only looks at the “P” (the process we are investigating) but also looks at the Suppliers, External Inputs, Customers, Requirements and Outputs to the Process.

Yaman, The “Rating or importance of the customer” can be 1-10 depending on how important the output is to the customer (10 = Most Important and 1 = Least Important). The customer should be present to give this number.
