Chapter 7:
Organisational Performance Management System
The Ugu District Municipality adopts a reviewed Performance Management Policy and Procedural Framework annually for the purpose of ensuring proper planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of performance management within the municipality. The policy also outlines the structural processes of accountability. The policy aims at ensuring improvement in the Organisational and Individual Performance Management system of Ugu District Municipality, which eventually would contribute to improving effectiveness and efficiency of the municipality in terms of delivering services to the community.
The municipality has merged OPMS and SDBIP processes to ensure consistent alignment in the implementation. This is in line with the legislation as the Municipal Systems Act (MSA), 2000 requires municipalities to establish a performance management system. Further, the MSA and the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA) requires the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) to be aligned to the municipal budget and to be monitored for the performance of the budget against the IDP via the Service Delivery and the Budget Implementation Plan (SDBIP). The 2020 / 2021 Scorecards and SDBIP are attached as Annexure 14.
