Corporate Plan 2023–2024

The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet’s Corporate Plan for 2023–2024

Key activity 2: Helping our partner agencies deliver on Government priorities

We serve the Prime Minister, who is responsible for the delivery of Government priorities. In support of this, PM&C uses a range of mechanisms (including our role of shadowing government departments and our understanding of the Prime Minister's priorities) to help APS agencies to succeed and ensure Government policies, programs and decisions are successfully implemented.

We evaluate this activity by measuring the extent to which ministers and ministerial stakeholders are satisfied with the level of monitoring and reporting on the delivery of Government priorities, and the extent to which non-ministerial stakeholders are satisfied with our monitoring, reporting and understanding of the Prime Minister's priorities.

Intended result 2.1: PM&C effectively monitors and reports progress on the delivery of Government priorities

Performance measure 3: Percentage of ministers and ministerial stakeholders satisfied with the level of monitoring and reporting on the delivery of Government priorities

Why do we measure this?

Maintaining the satisfaction of ministers and ministerial stakeholders with the level of monitoring and reporting on the delivery of Government priorities, is key to achieving our purpose and is an important way to measure our success.

Changes since previous year

The wording of the measure (previously identified as 2.1.1) has been updated to promote a clear link between the measure and the rationale ('Why do we measure this?'). We have also updated the measure to include greater clarity on the stakeholders involved in providing input for the performance result – in this case, ministers and ministerial stakeholders. We have also made updates to better define our data source and methodology.
