Building Your Manufacturing Team Incentive Plan

ourlinQ was born in a company seeking to improve performance. Your system will come pre-populated with a proven incentive plan that will inspire peak performance. Simply upload your employees and assign an incentive template based on their role. You can start your incentive plan as is, or adjust bonus frequency, KPI targets, incentive amounts or add new incentive rules to fit specific initiatives in your organization.

Business Leadership and Support Staff

From business leadership down to your marketing team and administrative assistants, each has a specific role in helping improve the bottom line of your business. Incentive solutions for each critical department in your organization are explained on the Department Solutions page. A typical incentive for a team or division leader is shown as an example below. Additional incentives for metrics that your team leader is responsible for could include order fulfillment rate, team sales, team revenue, client satisfaction or employee satisfaction.

Incentives for the Production Team

Your production team is the core of your business. The most used incentive rule for a production team is a quota-based incentive. As a team hits and exceeds their production quota, the company is more profitable so incentives to each team member can be higher. Alternate incentive rules could be built using the following KPIs: billable hours, schedule, quality, or client satisfaction.
