The interdependance between planning, performance and measurement v printmarkhocknell
What goes wrong with our planning? Why are we always focused on the delivery of our planned actions and yet we rarely see demonstrable change in our results?
Why do we focus on hitting the numbers in our KPI targets, even though we know they don’t really demonstrate the impact of what we do?
To achieve the level of performance we are seeking - we need to change how we plan and what we plan for. Measurement provides a key feedback loop that helps us understand what is working, and what is not. Measurement helps us learn. Organisational learning is key to achieve more with less.
Program Management Outsourcing: Challenges & Factors Contributing to SuccessMoataz Y. Hussein
Over the past few years, outsourcing the program management function in large-scale programs has been popular amongst public and private sector organizations. It has been implemented in countries with promising national development plans in the sectors of Construction, Oil & Gas, Public Health, Education, and Telecommunication as well as in countries which are hosting special international events like the Olympics, World Cup, or a global exposition. The clients, public or private sectors, tend to go for well-known program management consultants (PMCs). Few reasons justify this strategy, among which are transferring the risks resulting from the administrative and technical complexity of the program to a third party and lack of skills and expertise. Nevertheless, these programs are challenged with meeting budget, schedule, and other program or business objectives.
This study aims at investigating and identifying the common challenges and factors contributing to success in PMC engagements. The study addresses these common challenges expressed as the missing enablers or factors in the program. The absence of these critical factors is considered a challenge that faces the Program Management Outsourcing model used today. In the same way and by the same argument it is shown that the existence of these factors or enablers will increase the likelihood of program success. The focus is on the key factors that pave the road for a productive client-PMC relationship, without going into the details of the program and related technical issues. In order to elicit these factors or enablers, a literature review has been done coupled with a questionnaire survey conducted amongst practitioners & academics. Finally a PMC-led program governance structure has been proposed.

8. About The Performance Institute
Called “the leading think tank in performance measurement for government” on
OMB’s ExpectMore.gov, The Performance Institute has been a leader in Performance
Management training and policy since the 2000 administration transition. As part of
the Government Performance Coalition, a group of good government organizations, the
Institute worked in 2000 to deliver recommendations to the then new administration on
what would become the President’s Management Agenda.
In 2009, the Institute is leading Innovations in Government: From Transition to
Transformation, or InnoGOV.org, a collection of forums, research and recommendations
to bring insight and transformation to the federal government. The goal of InnoGOV.
org is to centralize the importance of performance, accountability and transparency in
government and to disseminate the leading best practices to government managers.
The Performance Institute has published several research reports regarding performance
management initiatives and trains over 10,000 government managers per year on
performance-based topics. Dedicated to improving citizen services and taxpayer
transparency, the Institute uses a best-practices foundation to deliver the most effective
and tested methodologies for improving performance.
