Performance Management

Improve operational and policy decision making with clear, measurable near-term goals that align with broader strategic objectives.

Program administrators require critical program information structured to help them make policy and program decisions, manage operations at strategic and operational levels, and deploy scarce resources for maximum benefit. High quality performance-management activities, systems, and techniques provide staff at all levels with the information they need when they need it. This information can help agencies compare current performance to establish targets, identify and highlight the most successful activities and practices, identify areas of underperformance, and develop strategies for improvement.

Our experts provide a range of performance-management services to help agencies develop a robust set of performance measures, implement well-designed systems and processes to monitor performance, and analyze performance data to make better-informed operational and strategic decisions.
