Performance information

Performance information describes an organisation’s results against objectives or measures, using financial or non-financial indicators. Criteria, definitions, data quality and measurement methods matter when such information is reported or assured. It may be relevant to public-sector reporting and sustainability engagements.

Worked example

A public agency reports the percentage of applications processed within ten days and documents the method and source data.

Common mistake

A favourable performance measure is not automatically reliable or evidence that the underlying programme achieved every objective.
