'Over time, ratings created across many performance reviews throughout the organization can provide real insight into a number of things. Having a manual or quasi-automated review system can be a barrier to being able to easily mine those data to assess what is happening in key areas of performance. Using an automated system that stores the data in a manner that allows for easy querying of those data provides a basis for generating reports and analyses easily and quickly.

I've been writing for newspapers since I was in high school. The reason I point this out is that I've had years (eons) to learn that what you put in print really matters. You've got to think long and hard about what you're writing. If you make a mistake, not only is it embarrassing, but it can haunt you for a long time.
