Deliverable 3: Report with technical input and recommendations for the Strategy for the Civil Service, including on developing a comprehensive data governance framework for HRM in the public administration

Overview & Synopsis

This report contains analyses, options and proposals for a logical framework that can be used to support the SCS 2027-2032 project to be developed by the NACS. The analyses and recommendations focus on consolidating and expanding the ongoing reforms aimed at transitioning to a competency- and data-based HRM in the civil service. A connected report hereto supports the substantiation of the proposals for improvement and direction, and for strategic measures related to data governance for an effective HRM in the civil service. The report does not replace the final strategic document but clarifies the problems that justify strategic interventions, proposes a vision and a framework of objectives aligned with the problems identified and international best practices, defines strategic programs with expected results and indicators, and outlines the elements of implementation. The proposals build on the progress made through previous HRM reforms, such as the introduction of the general competency framework and the national recruitment competition for the civil service, and capitalize on NACS’s proposals (legislation, guidelines, platforms) and on the OECD and EU standards on effective governance and HRM.
