Explanation:
= downstream: "If you are measuring “activity” (i.e. at a process level), it is more likely that you are using Leading Indicators. The closer you move to process inputs and activities, the closer you get to Leading Indicators of downstream, (Lagging) performance. If you are measuring aggregated effects, or outcomes, at an organisational level, you are more likely to be using Lagging Indicators."

Maybe fonction/activité instead of mécanisme?

Robert & Collins Man etc. gives lagging indicators = indicateurs retardés d'activité.
