Manager-Set Monthly KPI Targets for Every Employee

Performance management starts with clear, measurable goals. Avani's KPI module lets managers set monthly targets for every employee — whether it's revenue closed for a sales rep, tickets resolved for a support agent, tasks completed for an engineer, or calls made for a BDR. Targets are set at the start of each month and auto-tracked throughout. Managers in Bangalore IT companies, Delhi trading firms, and Mumbai financial services companies all use the same consistent framework — no more subjective end-of-year reviews with no data to back them up.

Sales Target Tracking Integrated with CRM

For sales-led companies, performance management without CRM data is incomplete. Avani's performance module integrates directly with its built-in CRM — sales targets (revenue closed, leads contacted, demos scheduled, deals converted) are pulled automatically from CRM activity. Sales managers can see in real time how each rep is tracking against their monthly target without asking for a manual update. A rep who closes 80% of target by the 20th of the month is flagged as on-track; one at 30% gets a manager alert.

Automatic Employee Rankings — Objective & Bias-Free

Avani auto-generates employee rankings every month based on a composite score: KPI achievement (configurable weight), task completion rate from the project management module, and attendance record (including punctuality and leave usage). The ranking is calculated automatically at month end — no manager judgment call, no HR manual review. The leaderboard is visible to leadership and optionally to the team, creating healthy competition and recognising consistent performers before performance review season.

360-Degree Style Visibility — Tasks, Attendance & KPIs in One View

True performance visibility requires more than just one metric. Avani's employee performance dashboard shows a 360-degree view of each employee: how many tasks they completed vs were assigned (from project management), what percentage of their KPI target they achieved, their attendance consistency (present days, late arrivals, leave taken), and any EOD reports submitted. Managers can drill into any employee's profile and see all four dimensions in one screen — giving a complete picture rather than a partial one.

Tie Performance Rankings to Payroll Incentives

Performance management only changes behaviour when it's connected to compensation. Avani lets you link monthly rankings to variable pay and incentives — configured in the payroll module. Top-ranked employees can receive a performance bonus automatically added to their monthly salary. Sales reps hitting target get their commission calculated from CRM deal data. HR teams no longer need to manually compile a performance report, share it with finance, and wait for payroll adjustment — the entire loop is closed within Avani.

Leaderboards & Recognition for a High-Performance Culture

High-performing Indian companies — from Bangalore SaaS startups to Mumbai financial services firms to Delhi manufacturing businesses — know that recognition drives retention. Avani's leaderboard feature publishes monthly team rankings with star badges for top performers. The "Employee of the Month" is auto-selected based on the composite KPI + task + attendance score. Announcements module lets HR broadcast recognition to the entire company. Performance culture is built over months of consistent, transparent, data-driven recognition.

Key benefits

How it works

  1. Set Monthly Targets for Each Employee — At the start of each month, managers log into Avani and set KPI targets for their team members. Sales managers set revenue and call targets. Engineering leads set sprint task targets. HR leads set recruitment targets. Each target has a numeric value and a unit (₹ for revenue, number for calls/tasks). Takes 15 minutes per team at the start of each month.
  2. Track Progress in Real Time — Throughout the month, Avani tracks achievement automatically — CRM activity updates sales KPIs, task completion updates engineering KPIs, and attendance data feeds into the attendance score. Managers see a live performance dashboard for their team at any point. No end-of-month surprises, no manual data collection from team members.
  3. Auto-Rankings & Incentive Payouts — At month end, Avani auto-calculates the composite performance score for every employee and generates the ranked leaderboard. If incentive rules are configured (e.g., top 10% get a ₹5,000 bonus), the amounts are automatically pushed to the payroll module for inclusion in the next salary run. Leadership reviews the rankings, publishes them, and performance recognition is done — in one step.

Frequently asked questions

How is Avani different from 15Five or Lattice?

Unlike 15Five or Lattice, Avani's performance module is built into the same platform as your payroll, CRM, attendance, and projects. KPI achievement is measured against real CRM activity for sales teams, task completion is pulled from the project management module, and attendance is factored in from the attendance system — with incentive payouts flowing directly to payroll. This closed-loop integration is not possible with a standalone tool that's disconnected from your operational data.

Can Avani track performance for both sales teams and non-sales employees?

Yes. Avani supports different KPI types for different roles. For sales teams: revenue closed, leads contacted, calls made, deals converted — pulled from the CRM. For engineering/tech teams: tasks completed, sprint points delivered — pulled from the project management module. For support teams: tickets resolved, response time. For field teams: calls made, client visits. Each employee's composite score is calculated from their role-specific KPIs plus common factors (attendance, task completion). The ranking system is fair across roles.

How does Avani handle performance incentives and commission payouts?

Performance incentives are configured in the payroll module alongside regular salary components. You define the incentive rule: e.g., "Sales reps who achieve ≥100% of monthly revenue target receive a ₹10,000 bonus; 80-99% achievement gets ₹5,000." At month end, Avani checks each sales rep's CRM-linked KPI achievement against the rule and automatically adds the correct incentive amount to their payroll for the month. No manual calculation, no finance team Excel sheet — the performance module and payroll module are the same system.

Can employees see their own performance rankings and KPI progress?

Yes. Each employee has a self-service portal where they can see their current month's KPI targets, real-time progress against each target, their task completion rate from the project module, and their attendance record. At month end, when rankings are published, employees can see their rank on the company leaderboard (if the company opts to make it visible). This transparency is intentional — employees who know how they're being measured perform better, and it removes the "I didn't know what I was supposed to achieve" excuse from performance conversations.
