The various services, products and tools offered by The Budget Experts can address that missing element or elements in the city, county or town’s existing performance management system that is preventing creation of a high performance government.  Customer satisfaction objectives found in quality programs often address a city, county or town’s existing performance management and business planning efforts; however, there is often no connectivity between performance, program prioritization and fiscal feasibility.  

Using the various services, tools and products found in our APPLE Management System after a review of a local government’s existing budget and performance management systems is a cost effective way to improve upon existing performance management efforts.  Services are tailored to what is and is not already in place within the organization to avoid redundancy and cost.  For example, some agencies are already very performance minded and use metrics to make budget decisions; others have business or strategic plans in place; and, a few have integrated performance management with budget policy development.  This allows a jurisdiction to pick only the services that will address the key missing ingredient(s) that is preventing them from achieving Accountable Program Performance for Leadership Excellence.
