You need to start with a 'Competencies & Skills' based performance evaluation system since your company is not yet ready with the KRAs / Goals for each employee.

As a suggestion, consider 3 core competencies which you feel are important for your business. For example, 'Drive for Results', 'Customer Focus' & 'Professional Skills'. These will be applicable to all employees. Choose 3 more, which may differ as per the employee level. Define the meaning of each of these 6 Competencies & skills. Consider that these will be evaluated on the scale 1 to 5; 1 being the lowest score & 5 being the highest. Lay down & define each step (1 --> 5 ) on the scale so that evaluation is not subjective.

Put all the above on a Form called 'Appraisal Form'. Define the Reporting channels for each employee (ie, who will be the Reporting Manager & Reviewer for each). At the end, indicate how the Final Score shall be calculated. You can know some more details by visiting 'EmpXtrack' on the internet since they have provided performance solutions to many companies in UAE & in mid-east.
