• What is a performance measure?
• Where are performance measures in a
performance management system?
• What should be in place before establishing
measures?
• What’s a system of work?
• What are the characteristics of a useful process
measure?
• How do you go about establishing useful
process measures?
What is a Performance Measure?
• Performance Measurement is regular collection
and reporting of data to track work produced and
results achieved.
• Performance Measure is quantitative
representation of
– Capacity
– Process
– Outcome
Where are Performance Measures in a
Performance Management System?
YOU ARE HERE!
Standards and Measures: PHAB Example
• Standard 9.1: Use a performance
management system to monitor
achievement of organizational objectives.
– Measure 9.1.2 A Implement a performance
management system.
– Use a process to determine and report on
achievement of goals, objectives, and
measures set by the performance
management system.

What is a System of Work?
Factory: How?
Widget: What?
Customers: Who?
Outcomes: Why?
Focus on the Widgets
• What’s a Widget?
Widgets
•
•
•
•
Are Things
Are Deliverables
Can be Counted
Are Specific
Common Public Health Agency Widgets
•
•
•
•
•
Environmental Permits, Notices of Violations
Rules and regulations
Vaccinations
Epidemiology Reports
Infrastructure
– Filled Vacancies
– Contracts
What Widgets Do You Produce?
• Take a minute: write down 5 widgets you
produce
• What examples do you have to share?
Measures: General Considerations
•
•
•
•
Measures reveal our values
Measures drive behavior
Measures can inspire us
Measures can help us learn
Useful Measures: Specifics
• Meaningful
• Focused on customer
needs
• Accurate
• Valid
• Reliable
• Responsive
• Functional
• Credible
• Simple enough to be
understood
• Available
• Abuse-Proof
• Cost effective to
collect and report
• Comparable data
over time
SMART Measures
•
•
•
•
•
Specific
Measurable
Aggressive
Results-Oriented
Time-bound
Developing Measures
• Talk with customers and those involved in the
process
• Identify which process measures
–
–
–
–
Are of value to customers and producers
Will drive behavior
Will inspire
Will promote learning
• Determine how process measures fit into other
measurement processes in the agency
(performance standards, strategic plan)


Ask a series of questions:
◦ Who is your customer
◦ What do they care about
◦ What is the purpose of your funding/mission/vision
of the program area
◦ Does this goal and objective tie to the strategic plan
 Does your program have a role in the key priorities of
the agency
◦ Can you measure it
 Is it meaningful???

Several areas of resources to determine
measures:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
State law/code
Program requirements
Healthy People 2020
Historical data of the program
Benchmarks by national groups (i.e., March of
Dimes)

Develop the key outcome measure

Identify key activities to get you to making a
change in the measure
◦
◦
◦
◦
Decrease Smoking Rates
Decrease Obesity Rates
Increase Immunization Rates
Decrease the late payment fees
◦ Increase number of people receiving coaching from
quitline
◦ Increase the complete streets communities throughout
the state
◦ Reminder recalls--% of those who become compliant due
to the reminder notice
◦ Decrease invoice wait time; increase invoice processing
time
Sometimes it is all about
Process


Ensure your epidemiologists are involved
Ensure the experts to the program are
involved
If you are doing a “data pull” ensure the
IT/database manager is involved
Involve Executive Leadership
Do a “mass” education campaign
