Case Study: Five-Star Technology aligns performance around core values with PerformYard

How Five-Star Technology brought together light quarterly check-ins with broad annual 360 reviews to align their talented team around 6 core values

Five-Star Technology, an IT services company that helps K-12 schools use technology to improve learning, needed a better way to manage performance without exhausting its team with Google-based tools. The company wanted a system that would support a custom process focused on aligning employees around six core values, while also making room for regular manager check-ins and development conversations. PerformYard provided the platform they needed to build that process.

Using PerformYard, Five-Star Technology implemented quarterly check-ins, annual 360 reviews, and a 100-day onboarding survey. The annual review process collected feedback from managers, peers, self-reflections, and clients, then used qualitative coding to organize comments around the company’s core values. This gave managers a clearer, more complete picture of performance and helped employees focus on growth and next steps, with goals set at the end of each review cycle.
