Emmanuel Addeh in Abuja

The Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA), is in the forefront of the implementation of the Performance Management System (PMS) in the Public Service, the organisation has said.

The PMS Consultant to FERMA, Mrs. Titi Akisanya, disclosed this during the PMS appraisal session with FERMA management at the Agency’s headquarters.

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.

Managing Director of FERMA, Chukwuemeka Agbasi disclosed that the agency has since keyed into the reform initiative to support the actualisation of the current administration’s agenda.

“This has led to some significant gains, as the agency has not only ensured over 97 per cent 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,”  the statement added.
