What is the Production-Grade Performance Management course about?
Public-sector programs face increasing pressure to demonstrate impact, yet many rely on fragmented spreadsheets, inconsistent definitions, and manual reporting processes. These create delays, erode confidence, and expose teams to compliance risk when systems are challenged. Without production-grade design, even well-intentioned performance initiatives fail to scale or survive scrutiny.
