Dear Saikrishna, More than processing, your focus should be on measurement. Any PMS, whether old or new, traditional or modern, IT-assisted or manual, that measures what deserves to be measured is fine. There are cases where HR adhered to this or that PMS, but the way organizational performance needs to be measured was not considered. Secondly, PMS should percolate down to the last level. This has not happened in many organizations, notwithstanding heavy investment in IT-assisted PMS.

Setting Up a Performance Appraisal (PA) or Performance Management System (PMS) Without Ratings
Setting up a Performance Appraisal (PA) or Performance Management System (PMS) without ratings is not difficult to do. However, we must first understand why such a type of appraisal is needed by an organization and whether it is practical and would serve the purpose of the company.
An appraisal without a rating (and a corresponding reward or sanction) is like a disciplinary action without a penalty or punishment. It may not be taken seriously by employees as they won't feel the difference between good performance and bad performance. As a matter of fact, those who are doing well may start performing badly once they realize that doing their best is just the same as doing poorly or doing nothing at all. Besides, in most organizations, the rating differences become their basis for why someone who performed outstandingly should be given a promotion and more bonuses than someone who did not, or someone who performed fairly and/or poorly.
Humans in most work environments anywhere in the world have always expected some kind of recognition or reward if they performed well. This is the way they have been treated in their homes and in school. Many would complain about the sense of unfairness when someone who did not perform well is given the same amount of bonus or recognition as those who performed very well or outstandingly.
Ensuring Effective Appraisals
For appraisals to be truly appreciated and considered relevant, organizations must ensure that employees are only evaluated on work factors and outputs that were planned, discussed, and agreed upon at the beginning of each year. The metrics for the rating must be transparent, clear, and understood by everyone. Most importantly, each employee must know by heart how they can perform outstandingly and what they can expect once they achieve it.
Best regards.
