Various indicators are used to manage it, such as capacity measurement, utilization rate, and efficiency.
Different levers can be activated to manage capacity — either by acting directly on it or by adjusting demand.

What is the budget?

Prepared at the end of the fiscal year for the following period, a budget is a forecasting and control tool used to organize an organization’s activities and measure their financial impact, typically over a maximum of one year. It represents the quantitative and financial expression of the short-term action plan of management. At the end of the period, budget reconciliation allows for updating forecasts based on the results of the past year and the objectives for the coming year. Some companies choose to prepare rolling budgets or rolling forecasts. Budgets are often subject to criticism, and in response, new approaches are emerging.

What are target costs?

How can costs be reduced without diminishing the product’s value for the customer? This question is at the origin of the target costing approach. It is not a cost calculation technique, but rather a cost management method. Its objective is to deliver a product whose perceived value meets customer expectations while not exceeding a maximum cost, the target cost, which ensures that shareholder margin requirements are met. This method is based on two principles: the additivity principle and the symmetry principle. The approach aims to control costs while preserving customer value. However, it can be very complex to implement.
