PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING. Performance contracting (PC) is a management tool for measuring performance against negotiated performance targets. It is freely negotiated performance agreement between a government, acting as the owner of a public agency and the management of the agency. The performance contract specifies the mutual performance obligations, intentions and responsibilities of the two parties (GoK, 2007). The process emphasizes outputs or results instead of inputs, rules, improve target-setting and follow-up.

PC can also have negative effects on productivity when endogenous nature of PC participation was taken into account in state owned enterprises in China. In China, the assessment of the impact of PC on performance was based on economic performance. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇ (1998) did not assess non commercial performance.
