Administrator and CEO Mark A. Gabriel sent his quarterly memo to the Secretary of Energy outlining WAPA’s fiscal year 2018 third-quarter performance. The following is a summary of this memo.
In 2018, WAPA continues its use of quantifiable performance measures and targets. This provides an opportunity for WAPA to gauge its improvement in key areas, and identify where its attention and efforts can best be focused.
WAPA’s performance targets are designed to both align with Department of Energy strategy and drive strategic direction for the organization. They cascade through WAPA’s performance management process, translating strategy into everyday action and creating a line of sight between employee efforts and overall direction.
WAPA monitors its performance and progress in regards to each of these areas regularly, sharing the results on a quarterly basis. Of the 24 performance measures being tracked this fiscal year, seven are only measured annually, due to the nature of the data that supports them.
For Q3, WAPA is reporting 16 measures as green, meaning they are on target. One measure is yellow, meaning it is on target with caution, and one measure is red, meaning it is significantly off target. The complete breakdown of key performance measures is below.
