State Government

Improving Performance In Labor Intensive Organizations
State governments are labor intensive operations! In many state departments, over 90 percent of the general fund operating budget is for personnel. The primary way to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of a state government agency, therefore, is to ensure that agency personnel use their time as effectively as possible while meeting the needs of the citizens and stakeholders they serve.

Applying Fundamental Management Principles
Key principles and approaches should guide the strategy, operations, and management for all state agencies regardless of their individual mission and responsibilities. Each agency, however, also has unique features and requirements that must be considered when implementing these principles. Successful management consulting, therefore, requires applying sound management principles to the unique needs of each state agency being evaluated.
