Strategic Performance Management System
The Strategic Performance Management System (SPMS) is a mechanism that links employee
performance with organizational performance to enhance the performance orientation of the
compensation system. It ensures that the employee achieves the objectives set by the organization and
the organization, on the other hand, achieves the objectives that it has set as its strategic plan.
The SPMS Objectives are:
(a) to concretize the linkage of organizational performance with the Philippine Development Plan,
Agency Strategic Plan, and Organizational Performance Indicator Framework OPIF;
(b) to ensure organizational and individual effectiveness by cascading institutional accountabilities to the
various levels of the organization; and
(c) to link performance management with other HR systems.
The SPMS has the following basic elements:
a. Goals that are aligned to agency mandate and organizational priorities
b. System that is outputs/outcomes-oriented
c. A team approach to performance management
d. Forms that are user-friendly and shows alignment of individual and organizational goals
e. Information systems that support monitoring and evaluation
f. A Communication plan
More importantly, the SPMS complements the Results-Based Performance Management System that is
implemented by the Office of the President and that links organizational performance to societal goals.
It is also linked to the Performance-Based Incentive System (PBIS) that consists of the Productivity
Enhancement Incentive (PEI) and the Performance-Based Bonus (PBB).
