Many organizations now a day's implement performance management system
(PMS) formally and informally in the organization based on the
traditional success factors as performance appraisals, performance
indicators and balance score to manage their organization effectively
and efficiently. This research compares the standard PMS to an informal
PMS applied in a non government, nonprofit and public interest based
organization. This is a cross sectional study having individuals, of a
local development organization, as the unit of analysis for testing the
established hypothesis that whether the PMS is implemented in the
organization under investigation. The statistical techniques used to
analyze the data were Means, standard deviation, and ZTEST. The informal
PMS was identified, measured, analyzed, and compared with the dimensions
identified by the standard PMS. The findings of the research were same
as expected by the hypothesis established.
