description |
The United States, at the national level
of government, has been trying to identify stronger links
between performance and funding for at least 50 years. The
most recent two presidents had fundamentally different
approaches to performance-based reforms. The administration
of George W. Bush embraced a top-down, comprehensive
approach to performance, embodied by the President's
Management Agenda and the Program Assessment Rating Tool
(PART). The Obama administration has delegated more of the
agenda to the agencies and has abandoned the PART in favor
of a more in-depth, targeted approach to evaluation.
Continuing challenges in the United States include creating
incentives for focusing on the long term rather than the
short term, making expanded use of performance information
for budget decision making, and simultaneously focusing on
performance improvement and reducing unsustainable budget deficits. |
