BACKGROUND

 

The Quarterly Performance Report to Council was developed in 2006 as a key component of the City’s Performance Measurement and Reporting Framework (ACS2006-CMR-OCM-0003). Since Q2 2006, the report has been produced following the end of each quarter and reviewed by standing committees before being received by Council. Work is underway to augment the Framework and as such future performance reporting requirements may change.

This report provides information on how the City is performing relative to its established standards, as well as information on changes in performance over time.

CITY STRATEGIC PLAN

 

On July 13, 2011, City Council approved eight Term of Council Priorities to increase the public’s confidence in City government and improve resident, enterprise and visitor satisfaction with City services

 

While the Council Quarterly Report is a pre-existing report directed by the previous Council to serve as a performance management tool, it also speaks to two of the current Council priorities:

 

Governance, Planning and Decision-Making – Achieve measurable improvement in residents’ level of trust in how the City is governed and managed, apply a sustainability lens to decision making, and a create a governance model that compares well to best-in-class cities around the world.

 

Service Excellence – Improve client satisfaction with the delivery of municipal services to Ottawa residents by measurably increasing the culture of service excellence at the City, by improving the efficiency of City operations, and by creating positive client experiences.

 

With approval of the 2011–2014 Term of Council Priorities and further direction to develop a Corporate Balanced Scorecard, the metrics contained in the Quarterly Report are being reviewed to incorporate measures where appropriate and to revise them, if necessary.
