An Audit Report on Performance Measures at Five State Agencies
December 2006
Report Number 07-005
Overall Conclusion
Reliable results were reported for 75 percent (18 of 24) of the fiscal year 2006 performance measures audited. This reliability rate is higher than the cumulative average reliability rate of 61 percent for prior audits of performance measure results.
The reliability percentages by agency for the measures audited are:
- Alcoholic Beverage Commission - 40 percent reliable (5 of 10 key measures audited).
- Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services - 50 percent reliable (4 of 38 key measures audited).
- Department of Transportation - 75 percent reliable (4 of 32 key measures audited).
- Department of Criminal Justice - 100 percent reliable (5 of 24 key measures audited).
- General Land Office and Trusteed Programs within the General Land Office - 100 percent reliable (6 of 17 key measures audited).
The reliability percentages were calculated using the results from the measures that were audited. The reported results for 16 of the 18 reliable measures were certified with qualification because the agencies' controls over data collection and reporting could be improved to ensure continued reliability. A result is considered reliable if it is classified as certified or certified with qualification.
