WHAT IS PERFORMANCE
MEASUREMENT?
Monitors what good results from spending the
taxpayers’ money
Not just a fad – it’s a decade-long movement
Two reasons to do it

Taxpayers increasingly
want to know

improvement

Known psychological barriers to
performance measures: Expect resistance
1. We already did that.
2. Performance measures are inherently unfair I only have so much control over outcomes.
3. Performance measures will be used against
me.
4. Performance measurement is going to invite
unfair comparison (e.g. tougher targets).

Psychological barriers, continued
5. Performance measurement is down the tubes
with the next administration.
6. There’s no way to measure what I do.
7. My department has conflicting missions.
8. I still don’t feel like it.

Two kinds of performance
measures
Result of product
or service

2 flavors:
High-level &
Intermediate
Outcomes
8
An outcome is a RESULT.
A return on the taxpayers’
investment or “ROI”
Example:
“Percentage of ag land in
1970 still preserved for
agricultural use.”
(Oregon Benchmark #80)

Intermediate outcomes - steps

Outputs
An output is a different
kind of accomplishment.
Often couched in terms of
services delivered.
So why are outputs
important?
So what?

I & CPM

Outputs are important.

They are building blocks to a desired outcome.

One thing is certain.
Taxpayers want results (outcomes).
12
Hence the “Managing for
Results” movement.
Outputs should lead to
the desired outcomes.
Both should be
measurable.

Four basic, planning questions
Trends, mandated goals,
benchmarks & other high-level
outcomes, internal processes,
stakeholder needs
1. Where are we?
2. Where do we
want to go?
4. How did we do?
Periodic reporting
against performance
measures.
14
Vision, mission,
goals, priorities
3. How do we get
there?

Strategies. Outcomes and
outputs with targets set
here.

This planning process is
universal…for example,
Strategic Planning at the state level in Oregon
Statewide
Needs Analysis.
1. Where are we?
2. Where do we
want to go?
4. How did we do?

Strategic Planning
16
If our objective is to create performance
measures
Then why do we need to do strategic
planning?
I & CPM
11/7/2015
Because…
17
Strategic planning provides the big picture,
so the performance measures fit together
logically
Planning leads to performance measures
Otherwise you are just measuring the
measures without knowing “Why?”

Performance measures as a tool for
Budgeting
Links to Benchmarks for purpose of budget submittal
Performance Measure data summary for purpose of
ways and means presentation
Annual Performance Report for purpose of monitoring
oversight
Therefore, necessary for budget process

Conclusion-So why do we need
Performance Management?
Effective Performance Management leads to
improved public outcomes and strengthens
democracy.

My Goal: To consult with the
Namibian Government to
implement a strategic plan in
working towards
