A method for scheduling collection of key performance indicators from elements in a communications network as provided improves network efficiency by reducing redundant KPI data transmission. The method includes defining a first key performance indicator request set by matching a first request for a key performance indicator with a second request for a key performance indicator (step 405). A maximum collection frequency for the first key performance indicator request set is then determined (step 410). Next, collection of key performance indicators defined in the first key performance indicator request set is scheduled at a rate equal to or greater than the maximum collection frequency (step 415).
