The PMF enables a clear line of sight between planning, measuring and monitoring results and public reporting. This updated guide reflects the continuous improvement of the Queensland public sector agencies in performance management. In preparing this guide, consideration has been given to comments made by the Auditor-General in 2009 (Auditor-General’s Report to Parliament No. 7 for 2009: Follow up on Government Owned Corporation and Budget Sector Performance Measurement and Reporting, 2009): “While fully supporting the work of DPC in the development of the PMF, for it to be fully effective, accountable officers need to implement the framework in their agencies to ensure greater accountability and transparency of performance”. In the current fiscal environment in Queensland, emphasis on effective and productive performance is critical. The Government expects a high level of performance and tangible results for the people of Queensland. Opportunities exist for agencies to continuously improve organisational performance to better meet the government’s broad objectives for the community. This guide establishes the minimum requirements for agencies in relation to performance management. To truly deliver value to clients, stakeholders and the community, agencies need to fully embrace a performance management culture. A Guide to the Queensland Government Performance Management Framework Page 5 Performance management is considered to be the system, which integrates organisational strategic management, performance information, evaluation, performance monitoring, assessment and performance reporting. (OECD, Working Definitions, 2002) Purpose of this guide This guide presents a practical overview of the key concepts of the PMF to facilitate improved performance management, evaluation, monitoring results and public reporting in the Queensland public sector. This guide will assist in developing a greater level of understanding of the PMF. Future Considerations Shaded boxes such as this are used throughout this guide to identify issues for future consideration in relation to the PMF. Intended audience This guide is intended for a broad audience both within government and for external stakeholders. In particular, it provides guidance to:  Ministers and their staff who wish to monitor the services delivered by their portfolio and the effectiveness of these services in meeting the needs of their clients, stakeholders and the community  accountable officers and statutory bodies who are accountable for the performance of their agency  managers and staff who coordinate planning, budgeting, and/or reporting on the performance of their agency  managers and staff who are responsible for the delivery of services  project and program managers who need to deliver services through a project, a program, or a portfolio of work  clients, stakeholders and the community who directly or indirectly benefit from government services  the Queensland Audit Office, the Queensland Ombudsman, the Coroner, Crime and Misconduct Commission and the Parliamentary Committees who independently monitor the government’s performance and report to Parliament  anyone else who is interested in improving performance and strengthening accountability through relevant and meaningful performance management. A Guide to the Queensland Government Performance Management Framework Page 6 Scope and application This guide applies to all Queensland Government departments and statutory bodies. Section 11 of the Financial and Performance Management Standard 2009 (FPMS) states: “Each accountable officer and statutory body must, in managing the performance of the officer’s department or the statutory body, comply with the document called ‘A guide to the Queensland Government performance management framework’ prepared by the Department of the Premier and Cabinet.” In most cases, the term ‘agency’ is used in this guide to refer to departments and statutory bodies. When necessary, an indication is made if specific sections apply to departments only or statutory bodies only. This guide assists agencies with planning, measuring and monitoring results, and public reporting. Terminology This guide establishes a common language for planning, measuring and monitoring results and public reporting. Definitions of common terms used are published in the PMF Reference Guide Queensland Public Sector Glossary of Terms. To date, these have been developed to align with the whole of government frameworks and methodologies including the Queensland Government Financial Management Framework; the Portfolio, Program and Project Management Methodologies; and the Queensland Government Business Service Classification Framework. Future Considerations Further refinement of definitions of common terms will continue to occur. A PMF Reference Guide has been published to encourage consistent use of common terms in documents published by Queensland public sector agencies.  PMF Reference Guide: Queensland uploads/Management/ guide-pmf.pdf
