Obstacles in formulating KRAs & KPIs for the firm

Please give your valuable suggestions

My Management asked to draft KRA & KPIs for all existing deptts.

As Job Descriptions are mandatory for KRAs but all JDs need to be updated as per changing role & responsibility,

With JDs, first of all
1.Goals of the organization,
2.deptt's KRAs and then
3.Individual KRA & KPI should be formulated.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

And for formulation of the same I need to undersatand all deptt work flow through discussion with each deptt head.

Here I do have few queries please guide me for clarification:-

1. Is it possible to develop KRAs without deptts KRA ?
2. What is Key performance Area and how it is different from KRA & KPI?
3. The sequence of developing PMS is setting KRA,KPI and than Goals and than Deadlines.
What is the role of Goals here and how to set goals.

One more problem I am facing that line managers as well as top management is not interested to give time to discuss the same.

They just give me work to do but don’t cooperate.

And whatever JDs has been formulated by me are not upto the mark as per my understanding because of the lack of information provided to me by deptt. head.
As I analyzed that all employees doing lot of work than written in the jds.
So if I draft kRAs on the basis of JDs these would be inaccurat
