"FERMA has since keyed into the Performance Management Reform Initiative to support the actualisation of the current Administration's Renewed Hope Agenda." Engr Agbasi
With Ministries, Departments and Agencies keying into the policy drive and reforms of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration that aims to bring about quality leadership and governance, the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation recently introduced the Performance Management System (PMS) with a directive for compliance.
Accordingly, the PMS has been at the centre of government reforms in recent years as an integral modern tool for planning, management, budgeting and improving accountability. It is also described as a pace-setting system that distinguishes serious and forward-looking organisations aspiring to reach the pinnacle in a 21st century competitive world.
Since its launch by the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (OHCSF) the PMS has remained a priority area of the Federal Government.
The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency FERMA, in delivering on the mandate, has assumed the leadership position in the implementation of the Performance Management System (PMS) in the Public Service.
Giving this assertion is Mrs. Titi Akisanya, the PMS Consultant from Zohar to FERMA, at the recently held PMS appraisal session with FERMA Management at the Agency’s headquarters on Thursday 27th September, 2024.
It is worthy of note that PMS is one of the 6 Pillars of the Federal Civil Strategy and Implementation Plan 2021-2025 (FCSSIP25).
The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency, FERMA which is under the leadership of its Managing Director/CEO, Engr. Chukwuemeka Agbasi, Ph.D. DIC, FNSE, FNIHTE and other PMS Stakeholders in the Agency have worked assiduously over the past 18 months to position the Agency as one of the foremost institutions implementing Performance Management System in the Public Service.
"This has led to some significant gains, as the Agency has not only ensured over 97% of its staff have Employee Performance Contract prepared and signed with their immediate supervisors, the Agency has also successfully completed the implementation of the Performance Management Cycle," he stated.
"The completion of the FERMA 2023 Performance Appraisal Closeout underpinned the 2024 Promotion Exercise which was driven by the New Performance Management System. This has indeed positioned the Agency as one of the leading organisations implementing the new OHCSF PMS practices end-to-end in Nigeria." The statement disclosed.
In the just concluded PMS Session with the Managing Director/CEO and the Management Team, the MD reiterated the leadership commitment to build on the gains of the PMS Initiative and entrench a Culture of Performance Management in the Agency.
This was contained in a statement issued and signed by Maryam M. Sanusi (Mrs.) fnipr, Director (Information/PR) FERMA and made available to journalists in Abuja.
