Key Components…that emerge from PMS framework

The present PMS is open, Robust and Transparent. It also provides the redressal of individual’s grievance if any on disclosure of their grading
Process Enhancements already introduced– Shift from manual to online PMS for officers E0-E6 in 2008-09– Introduction of performance distribution guidelines– Enabling of standard list of KPIs as a drop down for employees to
choose from
Challenges we faced– Initial discomfort of employees in using new online model– Hesitation in differentiating employees as per the distribution guidelines– Adherence to process timelines
In part due to remote location work with continuous field shifts
• Salient features of existing PMS
Where we areStrengths and Opportunities
• Appeal and review process
6
Transition to a new paradigm
In conformity to DPE guidelines further enhancements have been made and some more features are planned for the future:
Enhancements introduced– Shift from ‘Distribution’ guidelines to ‘Forced Distribution’
approach adopting Bell Curve concept.– Incentive Pay linked to Performance rating of the individual.
Enhancements Planned \ underway– Extension of online PMS to all other employee grades.– Modification in goal setting format to increase correlation with role.– Development of standard KRAs and KPIs mapped to each role.– Further refinement in moderation process system driven module.

Periodic review Identified focus area: training managers in giving effective feedback
• Training sessions to enable managers to provide developmental feedback to their work-groups
•Providing constructive feedback is a science and an art.
•Managers need to be enabled with the right tools and knowledge to provide feedback?
13
ModerationFuture Enhancements
Bell Curve formed at Corporate level
• From ease of implementation perspective
Bell Curve formed by Discipline and grouping of Levels
• From perspective of comparison within same line of work
Bell Curve generated mathematically
• From feasibility of implementation perspective
Bell Curve to be formed at Business Unit (BU) and Accepting Officer level
• Increases proximity to appraise for a better line of sight
Bell Curve to be formed by BUs and grouping of Levels
• From perspective of comparison within same work unit
Bell Curve to increasingly be based on discussions and deliberations
• Slow shift from a change management perspective
Current Way Forward
14
GovernanceFocus areas identified: Senior Management Involvement
Increased Senior Management Involvement:
►Giving message of importance and seriousness to the process through out the organization
►Some possible interventions
Include people performance review as part of Business review meetings by top management
Strong focus on adherence to timelines and intervention by senior executives in cases of deviation
Penalizing lax managers in their People Management KPI
- Where rating has been given without due justification.
- Deviations from timelines are seen.
- Developmental feedback is not provided in mid term review.
16
PMS at ONGC a robust process…… and the continuous efforts for further enhancements
An Online PMS system on SAP platform for all employees
Iterative process of Goal Setting at the start of the year
Standard KRAs and KPIs for each discipline with transition to Role orientation.
Mid year review for course correction / developmental aspects.
Three tier Appraisal system.
‘Forced Distribution’ using Bell Curve approach.
Transition to flexible five bucket performance ratings.
Moving from ‘Closed & Confidential’ to an ‘Open & Transparent’ system

Salient features of Existing PMS
I. e-PAR format and process flow configured in SAP platform
II. Access to Appraisee and Reporting Officer thrice a year
III. Assessment components - Performance and Potential
a) Performance Appraisal (P) :Divided in 4 KRAs:
• KRA 1: Quantitative & Timeliness – has option of 5 KPIs.• KRA 2: System Improvement • KRA 3: HSE/Office Management and• KRA 4: Qualitative Aspects
b) Potential Appraisal (Q) : Attributes divided into 10 parameters
iv) Mid-term Review: The system facilitates Mid-term Review of KPIs
v) Final Appraisal Report: The final assessment would be done at the end of assessment year. Weightage for Performance & Potential varies with level of executives.

Performance Appraisal
Rating Description
5 Achievement in excess of 100% of the target
4 Achievement between 91-100% of the target
3 Achievement between 76-90% of the target
2 Achievement between 61-75% of the target
1 Achievement of less than or equal to 60% of target
All KRAs and KPIs to be derived from roles (no
fixed KRAs)
Quantitative Self Appraisal to be introduced
to drive performance discussions
Guide for rating against set targets
Key thought: Role aligned KRAs with defined KPIs provide better clarity to appraisee, increase linkage to actual performance and reduce possible
subjectivity
