Measuring performance enables the AGCO to improve program effectiveness by setting targets, assessing data, and evaluating results. Through continuous evaluation and feedback, the AGCO continues to position itself to deliver on goals and objectives from AGCO’s Strategic Plan.
Results for 2021-22 below highlight successes in each of the three strategic goals of Modern Regulator, Service Excellence, and People First. These successes were facilitated by important projects and initiatives undertaken at the AGCO, which include:
- continuous optimization of iAGCO;
- a continued focus on stakeholder engagement and an enhanced approach to stakeholder education;
- a modern regulatory approach that is risk-based, outcomes-based and compliance-focused;
- a hybrid working model that provided the tools and flexibility necessary for positive employee engagement during COVID; and
- development of a strategy to address diversity, inclusion, and accessibility at the AGCO.
Performance measurement at the AGCO continues to evolve evidence-based evaluation practices to help internal and external stakeholders better understand progress with the agency’s strategic goals and mandate, as articulated in the executive summary. Activities scheduled for completion in 2022-23 include regulatory and business performance plans, which are risk-based, outcomes-focused and include performance targets, and establishment of a framework outlining performance monitoring and improvement planning cycles. These activities will support an evolution from performance measurement to performance management over the course of this three-year business planning cycle.
