More information about Performance Measures:
At the end of the 2021 Session, the House Appropriations Committee requested state agencies submit performance measures in a different reporting tool than previously utilized. Performance Based Budgeting (PBB), as outlined in KSA 75-3718(b), is an initiative to incorporate information on agency performance measures and program effectiveness into the budget process. Committee members expressed interest in further applying PBB throughout the budget process.
The PBB template includes information on:
- The consequences of not funding various agency programs;
- The authorizing authority for the program;
- Whether the program is mandatory or discretionary;
- Any federal funding for the program and whether that program has a maintenance of effort or match requirement;
- The agency’s determination of the program priority level;
- Agency program goals; and
- Performance measures, including FY 2021 through FY 2026 actual and agency projections for the current and budget years.
- Outcome Measures evaluate whether an agency is achieving its overall goals; and
- Output measures evaluate the program activity. Output measures are typically used by agencies to manage agency personnel and expenditures.
