  4. Performance information in the 2008 ENE

  5. What’s in the instructions? • Key performance indicators • Seven year timeframe format • Indicators have been moved to the front of the vote so that both cross-cutting or programme-specific indicators may be highlighted • Indicators may relate to inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes and may also provide contextual or explanatory information • Average of 10 performance indicators recommended per entity • Two areas to discuss performance: • Quantitative performance indicators in the key performance table (also see guidelines on using percentages) • Qualitative performance information in the strategic overview section

  6. Helpful tips • In general, indicators should relate to ongoing functions but may also be project-specific • The average of 10 indicators per entity means that the number of indicators may range from 7 to 17 more or less depending on need • Ensure that only numerical values are used to reflect past, current and projected performance in the seven year table • Ensure that the indicator is clear and obviously relates to the work of the entity. (e.g., “number of claims processed” could be clarified as “number of workers’ compensation claims processed per month”) • The key indicators do not have to cover all the aspects of the entity’s work just the most important from an oversight monitoring standpoint • Key performance indicators in the ENE represent only a small subset of entity performance information for auditing purposes • Don’t forget to include the unit of measure in the indicator title • Don’t forget to provide a brief definition of each indicator (i.e., enough detail to give a general understanding of the indicators • Review the strategic plan • Review the Presidency’s “Development Indicators Mid-term Review” of 72 national indicators
