A Balanced Scorecard is both a framework and a concise report aimed at performance management (see also:

).
It typically comprises a mixture of quantitative and qualitative evaluations and data.
The Balance Scoremap is a unique visualization of qualitative and quantitative data and their changes over time in a single picture. It allows comparing different time perspectives and a zoom feature to review details or to maintain the overview in one big picture. A customized structure of a Scoremap is easily set-up by using the Goal Assessment tool; alternatively, the EMT also provides a template for a Strategy Map.
