KPIs for Public Prosecution Department



The Punjab Public Prosecution Department, like Punjab Government’s every administrative department, has been assigned with certain functions which are to be performed by officers/officials of this department at various administrative levels. In order to induct transparency, efficiency, improved service delivery and effective career planning and appropriate decision making in the administrative set up, the government needs to measure the performance delivered by its officers/officials in respect of the functions assigned to them by the government so that their performance may be better governed and improved accordingly where required. In order to measure performance, the performance parameters have to be devised and quantified.

 Furthermore, if functions assigned to the concerned officers/officials - whose performance is to be measured- are almost of similar nature, as is in the case of prosecutors, the performance parameters to be measured have to be standardized also so that a relevant comparative performance analysis may be conducted to take corrective measures for improving service delivery and for advancement of service career of the concerned officers/officials.
Keeping in view the importance of standardization and quantification of performance parameters, as mentioned above, Directorate of Inspection, Public Prosecution Department, has worked out standardized/common and quantifiable Key Performance Indicators to assess performance of all prosecutors working with lower judiciary and Special Courts. These KPIs do not apply to the prosecutors working with Lahore High Court. The detail of KPIs worked out is given below:
