Abstract

Objectif : L’engagement d’une entreprise à atteindre l’excellence est largement déterminée par l’utilisation des outils de contrôle de gestion mis en place (Ngo Biheng et al., 2020). Dans ce contexte, l’objectif de cet article est d’analyser l’effet de l’utilisation des outils de contrôle de gestion mise en place par les entreprises sur leur performance organisationnelle au Cameroun.Méthode : Pour y parvenir, nous exploitons les données collectées via un questionnaire au cours de la période 2019, sur un échantillon de 77 entreprises exerçant leurs activités au Cameroun. Concernant les outils statistiques, nous avons utilisé les tris à plats pour la description des variables qualitatives de l’étude, les caractéristiques de tendance centrale et de dispersion pour les variables quantitatives de l’étude, l’Analyse en Composantes Principales (ACP) pour calculer les indices synthétiques de la performance organisationnelle, du budget et du tableau de bord prospectif. Pour étudier la relation existante entre les outils de contrôle de gestion et la performance organisationnelle des entreprises on a eu recours à la méthode des Moindres Carrés Ordinaires.Résultats : Dans l’ensemble, les résultats indiquent que le tableau de bord prospectif fait partie des outils du contrôle de gestion qui améliorent le plus la performance organisationnelle des entreprises contrairement à l’utilisation du budget qui bien qu’utiliser par 58,5% des entreprises de l’échantillon n’influence pas significativement la performance organisationnelle des entreprises au Cameroun.Originalité/Pertinence : Bien que la relation entre les outils du contrôle de gestion et la performance organisationnelle ait été mise en avant dans la littérature, il reste que très peu de travaux ont été réalisés dans le contexte camerounais. Le bilan de ces travaux empiriques aboutit à des conclusions nuancées, parfois contradictoires et n’apporte pas de connaissances cumulatives et généralisables. Notre étude devrait contribuer au débat relatif à la relation entre les outils du contrôle de gestion et la performance organisationnelle dans les entreprises.Contributions sociales/de gestion : La contribution de cette étude est importante dans la mesure où l’utilisation des outils de contrôle de gestion à l’instar du tableau de bord prospectif permet aux responsables de l’entreprise de s’approprier des objectifs stratégiques et de stimuler par la suite leur processus d’apprentissage organisationnel.
