Review of the Performance of the Department of Management Services' Workforce Program

Report 97-54, February 1998




Report Summary

  • The Workforce Program's administrative efficiency remained relatively stable during Fiscal Years 1995-96 and 1996-97.
  • The program's customers were generally less satisfied with program services in Fiscal Year 1996-97 than expected.
  • The program's measures could be improved by establishing better methods for calculating the results for two measures-total administrative cost per full-time equivalent (FTE) position and customer satisfaction with program services.
  • The department should include performance-based program budgeting output measures in its legislative budget request to assess the amount of products or services provided by the program.
