Performans ölçümü, başlı başına bir amaç değildir. O halde kamu yöneticileri neden performans ölçmelidir? Çünkü kamu yöneticileri bu yolla, kendine has sekiz idari amaca ulaşmaya yardımcı bazı ölçüler bulabilirler. Kamu yöneticileri idari stratejilerinin bir parçası olarak, performans ölçümlerini; değerlendirme, denetim, bütçe idaresi, motivasyon, destekleme, kutlama, öğrenme ve geliştirme amaçlarını gerçekleştirmek için kullanabilirler.
