The Office for Strategic Planning and Performance Management helps the Federal Ministry for Digital Transformation and Government Modernisation (BMDS) define goals clearly and make progress visible. This is how we provide orientation for managers, teams and projects. We understand management as support, not as the power to control.

Strategic Planning and Performance Management
Because we want to know whether we are reaching our goals
What we want to achieve
For us, performance means not merely initiating change, but also making it a constant. We hold firmly to this attitude as a guiding principle of the BMDS. To this end, we create structures to make goals visible, progress measurable and changes in course possible: early, clearly and together. For a federal ministry that knows where it stands and where it wants to go.
How we work
What exactly we do
At the BMDS, strategic planning and performance management means working together to achieve clarity, enable performance and support decisions. To do so, we develop professional management tools, from targeted information for the executive level all the way to portfolio structures and formats for setting priorities.
We provide individual, practical advising for teams in the BMDS; we guide workshops and help to put goals within reach. We make targeted use of instruments including dashboards, Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) and reporting standards as needed and according to the maturity level.
What we seek: to understand management not as the power to control, but rather as a shared responsibility that is cooperative, clear and able to learn.
