Treasury’s corporate plan is our primary planning tool and framework within which we develop our strategies, objectives and work practices. It articulates our vision, mission and values, the factors that we perceive to be critical to our success, the challenges we face, our key strategies for the coming year and the outcomes that we hope to achieve for the community.
As well as enabling us to manage performance at the corporate and branch level, our planning and reviewing processes assist us in managing individual performance. Each member of our staff has a performance agreement with their supervisor that is reviewed every six months at a Performance Management Interview. This review enables each individual to ensure that their performance is focused on achieving organisational goals.
Corporate planning is an ongoing process that encompasses a 12-month cycle of planning, reviewing and decision-making that is linked to the State Budget process. During this cycle, we monitor and measure our corporate and branch performance each month.
As outlined in the corporate plan, we set out to achieve the following four Desired Agency Outcomes in 2010–11.
- The Treasurer and other key clients receive efficient and effective financial and asset management services.
- The Government receives sound and timely economic and fiscal policy advice.
- Statutory bodies receive high quality regulatory and revenue management services.
- Services to our internal clients are provided efficiently and effectively.
Our stakeholders
Our key stakeholder is the Treasurer.
We also have important relationships with the following stakeholders, upon whom our ability to meet our objectives relies:
- the Premier and other Ministers;
- our staff;
- agencies, Government Business Enterprises and State-owned Companies;
- the Australian Government, regulatory bodies, local government and other statutory authorities;
- taxpayers and their representatives;
- the community; and
- Parliament, Cabinet and ministerial advisers.
Our critical success factors
We have identified four factors critical for our success that enable us to achieve the Government’s objectives:
