Performance Management in the Public Sector Developing employees when the mission is bigger than profit
Performance management in the public sector and non-profit organisations requires a different approach to that in corporate businesses. When the mission is bigger than satisfying shareholders, and where reporting and measures of success are complex, performance management can be challenging. But, Appraisd has it covered.
A performance culture for non-profits and public sector entities
Some public sector organisations and charities struggle to apply a performance model to an entity that isn’t focused on sales, costs and profit. At Appraisd we’re experts in promoting performance, progression and alignment in entities with a varied workforce and diverse stakeholders.
Non-profit performance management with support on-hand
Appraisd has a long track record in helping public sector, local government, non-profits and social enterprises to embed a performance culture. Our platform accommodates complex performance management processes and integrates with a wide range of HRIS systems.

A platform that evolves at your pace
Even if you know your performance management process needs to evolve, Appraisd can accommodate your current process and roll-out changes when you’re ready. We move at a speed that’s comfortable for your organisation.
A performance culture for both employees and unpaid staff
In organisations where there is a population of salaried employees and unpaid staff or volunteers, Appraisd can accommodate diverse and non-financial targets and KPIs, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to perform at their best.
Accommodate secondments and rotations
Performance management in the public sector often needs to accommodate project-based work, job rotations or fast-track schemes where multiple reviewers need to be involved. Using Appraisd you can collect feedback from multiple reviewers and trigger the collection of feedback using automation.
Clarity for the entire workforce
Although the KPIs may be different to for-profit businesses, the importance of performance management in public sector is no less paramount. Appraisd provides clarity on objectives, progress towards objectives, performance ratings and personal development plans to keep everyone pulling in the same direction.
Structure career progression
Articulating your Employee Value Proposition is easy using Appraisd. Use the platform to map out career progression, training opportunities, personal development and employees’ personal goals and motivations.
