ABSTRACT

This study attempts to propose a new framework of performance management named a publicness-oriented performance management system. Recently, replacing the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993(GPRA), the U.S. federal government enacts a public law called the GPRA Modernization Act of 2010, GPRAMA. This study explores a possibility of designing an innovative framework of performance management based on the GPRAMA. Since the GPRA has been the icon of administrative reform throughout the whole world, the ideology of result-based management takes roots within various kinds of government organizations. This study shows several research results indicating effectiveness of the GPRA. Based on those findings, it is discussed which factors makes the GPRA effective tool for productive public management. Utilizing the wide range of previous studies of government documents, this study suggests it is possible to design a publicness-oriented performance management system. For the research objective, three components of the idea of publicness are drawn from the theory body related with the definition of publicness: spirit of representativeness, diversity, and public sharing. This study how the GPRAMA reflects those spirits within itself so that several useful implications are discussed how a performance management is able to lead to consolidating the idea of publicness in public organizations.
