المستخلص: Purpose- Budgeting is considered to be one of the most important management tools in companies’ management control systems. But in recent years, criticism against budgets has increased. The research aims to explore an alternative to budgeting known as “Beyond Budgeting”. The purpose of this research is to study and describe the current status of applying beyond budgeting in Egyptian companies and to examine the relationship between application of beyond budgeting model and performance. The researcher also examines the application of beyond budgeting model in an Egyptian company. Design/ methodology/ approach- The research is based on a questionnaire distributed to a sample of 80 respondents from Egyptian companies. The researcher also carried out a case study at Freight Way, an Egyptian logistics company headquartered in Cairo. Data is collected from interviews with managers, accountants and internal company reports. Descriptive statistics, correlation and regression techniques were used. Findings-The researcher found that 94% of interviewed companies were dissatisfied with their current budgeting process. The Egyptian very few beyond budgeting principles. There was a positive relationship between the application of beyond budgeting and performance. The beyond budgeting model was designed and implemented at Freight Way in accordance to the. Egyptian environment. The results of the case study showed that there was a positive relationship between application of beyond budgeting and ROE and customer satisfaction, while there was a negative relationship between application of beyond budgeting and bias and use of power. Research limitations- The researcher depended only on ROE as an indicator for performance in survey. The research is subject to the usual limitations of case-based research. The results of this research should be further investigated in other Egyptian companies that are dissatisfied with their current budgeting process and trying to change their management control systems with inspiration of beyond budgeting. Practical implications- The researcher shows that companies can operate without traditional budgets and still maintain strong management control systems. Beyond budgeting can be applied in the Egyptian environment in companies of different sizes and different types of industry. The only challenge is the need of continuous training and learning to be able to change the mindset and behavior to the one ideal for application of beyond budgeting. Originality/ value- The scarcity of Egyptian academic publications and applications concerning beyond budgeting model. The research is one of the few to investigate the status of beyond budgeting model in Egypt and as well among the few case studies in the academic literature that applied this model in an Egyptian company.
