Act Requirements
The Government Performance and
Results Act requires government agencies,

goals and performance measurement
systems, set improvement targets, and
describe performance against those targets.
When relevant, comments are provided on
performance trends and explanations for
changes in goals, objectives, measures, indicators,
and targets are provided.

to provide timely, reliable delivery and universal
access to postal customers. Performance
measurement systems have been developed
