WANTED: Your Performance Measures |
What metrics have you used to evaluate your work?
Have you ever wished
you could see what others have done in similar situations?
PPMRN
is compiling a comprehensive database of performance measures to be a
source of information and inspiration for others wanting to create
high-quality measures. We are asking agencies, towns, cities, counties, and states to send
us the performance measures they have used so that we may create a
reference for the performance measurement community. We can attribute
the submitted information to the contributing organizations, or keep its origin confidential.
Help others benefit from your experience and expertise. Please send us
your measures, and any questions you have about the project, to
ppmrn@andromeda.rutgers.edu.
