Swedish term or phrase: rullande tre och tolv
From a CV that is quite oddly written (imo).

The candidate describes their duties in a senior position at an automotive company, writing:

Analys av KPI och resultat mot ekonomichef gällande rullande tre och tolv. Arbetade mycket med framgångsfaktorer mot tillfälliga KPI målsättningar.

Any ideas?

Explanation:
Rolling results look backwards for three, six or twelve months from the last complete month instead of waiting for the end of a quarter, or year or any other set period.

Explanation:
'KPI analys' involves forecasting and trends (or perhaps the other way around) which sounds like what this guy is talking about -- in very abbreviated short-hand. This involves 'rolling' statistical analysis over specific periods -- apparently three months and twelve months.

Search "rolling" + "quarterly" + "KPI" to see if you find some relevant reading.
