Using a case study approach, data were collected using observations and company’s documents and was analyzed qualitatively using the thematic analysis. Result indicates that if used properly, the strategy maps help the managers to identify organizational corporate strategies, objectives and performance measurement and facilitates the process of communicating those information from the top to the lower level management until the individual level. This study emphasizes the critical role of strategy map in the BSC implementation as well as its application in other performance management system when necessary.
