Priorities & Performance Based Budget

Priorities and Performance Based Budgeting (PPBB) is the process of identifying and prioritizing the Governor’s vision as it relates to the state’s core functions, their costs and delivering effective and efficient outcomes. This includes improved transparency to decision makers and the public; improved methods of measuring what the state does and whether agencies are making a difference; linking activities of government to achievement of objectives; and providing a platform for improvement in funding and budgeting decisions. The goal is to answer the question, “Why is our state spending money the way it is?”
