This paper aims to disclose how changes of different economic conditions shape internal organizational environment and how those changes are reflected in performance measurement system. Experience in this field is unique in each organization. In most cases quantitative research methods have some limitations to disclose and to generalize this experience. Case study organization’s performance results, changes of its values and performance system’s content were analyzed in the context changes of economic environment disclosed by traditional economic measures in three time periods.
