Starting in mid 2005 departments have begun utilizing the evaluation findings of phase 1 to redesign their performance measurement programs. The phase 2 Building Blocks of High Performance guides departments through the redesign process that emphasizes clarity, usability, meaningfulness, input from a variety of business perspectives and coordination with a departmental strategic plan.
As departments progress through the HOP phase 2: Building Blocks of High Performance, the Racing to Performance Redesign table is updated. In addition, progressing through the building blocks directly impacts the redesign results gauges - see the Gauging Performance Program Redesign!
