TECHNOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING A KPI CALCULATION SYSTEM FOR UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Abstract

 The rapid development of higher education systems worldwide has increased the need for effective performance evaluation mechanisms for academic staff. One of the most widely used approaches is the implementation of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), which provide measurable criteria for assessing the productivity, efficiency, and overall contribution of university professors. This paper explores the technological framework for developing a KPI calculation system tailored for higher education institutions. It examines the theoretical foundations of KPI-based evaluation, the design of a digital system for data collection and processing, and the implementation of automated scoring algorithms. The study also analyzes the integration of modern software technologies such as web-based platforms, databases, and cloud computing solutions to ensure scalability, transparency, and accuracy. Furthermore, the paper highlights the challenges associated with system implementation, including data reliability, user acceptance, and ethical considerations. The findings demonstrate that a well-designed KPI system can significantly improve decision-making processes, enhance academic performance, and support institutional development. The research concludes with recommendations for implementing sustainable and efficient KPI calculation systems in universities.
