How to Compare Performance Across Units

To compare performance across units, every unit has to run the same process on the same table. Comparison is impossible when each unit built its own structure.

Why unit comparison fails

The obstacle is structural rather than analytical.

Each unit tracking different fields
Reporting assembled by asking each unit for numbers
Definitions differing, so figures are not equivalent
Central reporting always a week behind

What makes comparison possible

Requirement	How to meet it
One process	A shared table with a unit field
Same definitions	The same fields and phases for everyone
Data separation	Permissions scoping each unit to its own records
Central view	A dashboard reading across all units
Local autonomy	Interaction access, not full control

How to build it in Jestor

Build the process once in Jestor, with a required unit field on every record.
Scope permissions so each unit sees only its own records.
Give unit staff interaction access rather than full control, so the process stays standard.
Build a central dashboard with the unit as a filter dimension.
Compare SLA timings per unit to find where practice differs from process.

Why choose Jestor for multi-unit reporting?

Jestor applies permissions by role, field, and action, which is what allows one build to serve every unit while keeping their data apart — the alternative being separate systems that drift.

Comparing stage timings across units is often more revealing than comparing outcomes: it shows where a unit is doing something differently, which is usually the explanation for the outcome.

Frequently Asked Questions
