Public Interest Associations to Create a National Performance Management Advisory Commission Representatives of nine leading state and local public interest associations, including GFOA, have joined forces to set up a commission charged with creating a national principles-based framework for public sector performance measurement and management, they announced February 6 at a meeting in Denver.
The Commission’s effort will result in voluntary guidelines that: - Identify general approaches and practices that are characteristic of successful performance measurement and management
- Emphasize the value of evidence-based and data-driven decision-making in effectively delivering government services
- Support state and local government implementation of performance measurement systems
- Reflect the issues and challenges associated with development and implementation of performance management systems from a broad range of perspectives including elected and appointed officials, and program and operational managers
- Provide a flexible framework that is adaptable to the unique and diverse environments of state and local government.
