- President Joseph N. Boakai will today lead a Presidential Contract Signing Ceremony under the Performance Management and Compliance System (PMCS), a flagship reform initiative designed to strengthen accountability, transparency, and citizen-centered service delivery across public institutions.
Launched in October 2024 under the leadership of the President and aligned with the ARREST Agenda for Inclusive Development (AAID), the PMCS provides a structured framework for public institutions to set clear performance targets, deliver measurable services, and report transparently on results. This signing is the third circle of the PMCS.
The PMCS seeks to establish a results-based culture across government by ensuring that public institutions define annual targets aligned with national priorities, strengthen internal systems, uphold clear service delivery commitments to citizens, and remain accountable through independent performance assessments and citizen feedback mechanisms.
Since its launch, the PMCS has achieved significant milestones, including the development and implementation of Service Delivery Charters across institutions, development of Strategic Plans aligned with AAID, government-wide capacity building, and the completion of annual assessments covering all 93 institutions. These processes have established a strong foundation for performance management and accountability in the public sector.
