Implementing Corporate Performance Management at NIH
Performance management provides public sector organizations with the ability to achieve corporate alignment that improves performance and achieves strategic goals. Federal mandates including Government Performance Results Act and American Recovery and Reinvestment Act are driving the necessity for NIH to embrace a new culture of measurement.
To address these objectives, the NIH Office of Management has developed a program to connect goals with results by exposing key performance indicators that can quickly provide the information needed to make the right decision at the right time. The program includes a performance management infrastructure comprised of strategic and tactical analytics that are derived from operational data. The analytics and reporting capabilities in the OM Dashboard cover a variety of administrative areas including human resources, financial management, facilities management, etc.
This presentation focuses on what the NIH CFO is doing to integrate performance and achieve a fact based decision making culture. We’ll discuss our framework, our progress, solution and pitfalls along the continuum of driving business value. Topics covered will include:
· Overview of OM Dashboard
· Approach and development methodology
· Real life lessons learned from a government perspective
