In the past, the performance and accountability of government agencies has been difficult to measure. In Business Intelligence and the Government Performance and Results Act by Bonnie Cosby, she explains why agencies must develop a goal and results-oriented approach to meet the requirements of this act. She then discusses how business intelligence can assist agencies in capturing metrics and reporting results.
