About CPMSWhat is Collaborative Performance Management System (CPMS)?Performance management is a form of good people management. The Collaborative Performance Management Systemis a systematic and ongoing process of communication and collaboration between a supervisor and an employee duringa year-long performance management cycle. It aligns individual performance to the County’s strategic priorities and supports individual learning and development. The performance management cycle has three parts:Performance Planning and Goal Setting: to clarify expectations, set goals and define what successful performancelooks like, as documented in the employee’s individual performance plan.Performance Feedback and Coaching: to let employees know how they are doing and encourage learning and effective future performance.Performance Review and Evaluation: to discuss and document performance during the year based on feedbackgiven throughout the cycle, and set the stage for next year’s performance planning and goal setting.What is the purpose of this User Guide?This User Guide outlines the workflow of the Performance Review and Evaluation phase of CPMS, as facilitated by LMS.The Learning Management System (LMS) has many tools to support people’s use of CPMS.Who is the User Guide for?This guide is for employees, supervisors/managers, and indirect managers.As an employee you can create your Employee Self Review, confirm and sign-off on the Final Evaluation, and create a PDF of the Evaluation.As a supervisor to the employee (referred to as an supervisor or manager throughout this guide) you can, draft thePreliminary Evaluation, finalize and sign-off on the final evaluation, and create a PDF of the Evaluation.As an indirect manager you can review and sign off on the Evaluation.What is a Performance Review and Evaluation?Performance Review is the process resulting in the creation of a formal evaluation which summarizes prior feedback anddiscussions of performance over the course of the review period. The formal evaluation reflects the extent to which expectations set at the beginning of the cycle were met. Supervisors are expected to have regular informal communicationduring the year through scheduled “one-on-one” meetings and with “on-the-spot” discussions regarding the status of aparticular project or assignment.When are Performance Evaluations completed?Performance Reviews and Evaluations are to be completed annually. All employees are to be evaluated at the sametime, in synch with the fiscal year. Probationary employees are to be evaluated at least once during their probationaryperiod. This typically occurs 30 days prior to the end of their probationary period, or based on the departmental or position requirements.CPMS User Guide for Performance Review and Evaluation
