Target Setting. Targets in IPD perform two functions. First, the targets set the goal to which the parties design and construct the project.31 Second, the targets are the metric used to measure the team’s performance. Although 31 Target Cost Design or Target Value Design are key techniques in IPD. In a traditional project, the client’s programming needs are used to develop the design. As the design progresses, cost is addressed through an iterative design/estimate/redesign loop until the estimate meets the budget. This is a feedback process. Target Cost Design uses a continuous evaluation of alternatives and cost implications to influence developing a design to the budget. This is a feed-forward process and avoids the waste, delay, and lost opportunities that are associated with design/estimate/redesign. the most common target is the project cost, targets can include perfor- ▇▇▇▇▇, quality, schedule, or any other reasonably evaluated metric. Moreover, targets can be expressed in alternatives as well as quantitative spectra. For example, the level of profit enhancement can be tied to which “desirable” elements can be achieved for the target price, as well as those that are required by the program. In these projects, the question is how much value the owner can get for a set budget rather than how little can be spent to achieve a set program. Setting targets correctly is of paramount importance and raises significant issues for the negotiation team. The key issues can be divided into three basic questions.
Target Setting. Targets will be assigned by Circle to SSAs and thereafter SSA will assign franchisee- territory wise Qty/Monthly target. Quarterly/monthly target will be communicated in last week of previous qtr/month or in the first week of the qtr./month.
Target Setting. Further work is being progressed to develop a comprehensive set of targets directly related to the additional and innovative activities proposed as part of this MAA. This will be complete by April 2009.
Target Setting. In addition to trying to ensure that as many pupils make expected progress, pressure is on schools to help as many as possible to meet their externally set GCSE targets. There are a few different mechanisms available to schools in terms of establishing these targets, but one of the most often used systems is to have them set by an outside agency, such as the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family Trust who use the National Pupil Database to provide GCSE targets for individual pupils based on their prior attainment, i.e. what they achieved in their Key Stage Two Standard Assessment Tests (SATS) in Primary School. Through this process every pupil is given an individual target grade in each of the subjects she/he is studying. No consultation is carried out either with the pupil, the parents or the teachers, but some schools, such as Kite Hill, offer the subject departments the possibility of changing some of the targets with the proviso that if one pupil’s target is moved up, another must be moved down. The reason for this is that when later calculations are carried out (i.e. after the GCSE results have been published) in order to establish the effectiveness of each department in terms of the percentage of pupils meeting their target, the basis on which the targets were adjusted must be the same across the school. The ideal is that all subject areas should add an equal amount of ‘value’ to the pupil in terms of how much progress each individual has made from their starting points; between subject differences are a possible cause for challenges during an OFSTED inspection as they may indicate that the leadership of the school has not been successful at eradicating what could be viewed as an inequality of curriculum offer.

(b) When are the targets set? (c) How should the targets be set?
Target Setting. Targets and benchmarks for Practitioners will be established at the beginning of each year as required for Performance Templates and Remuneration, and to facilitate the achievement of NAB Financial Planning’s financial expectations. NAB Financial Planning will set targets and benchmarks each year taking into consideration matters such as, but not limited to: ▪ Role ▪ Past performance ▪ Segment ▪ Number of ClientsGeographic location ▪ Number of referral partnersOverall system growth ▪ Reasonable expectations for growth and client acquisition ▪ The inflationary impact on Funds under Advice and ongoing revenue.
Target Setting. In Sandwell there is a determination to set challenging and appropriate performance targets that will increase the pace of change. The corporate performance management framework includes processes to ensure accountability and challenge is engendered at every opportunity. There is a detailed target setting proforma which is completed each year by each indicator owner. For the Local Area Agreement, a similar target setting proforma will be developed for each LAA performance indicator and challenge meetings between the Lead Officer for each LAA Block, the Performance Business Manager and each Indicator Owner will be undertaken, to ensure that the target setting follows a robust process that produces realistic and sufficiently ambitious targets for all selected performance indicators in each Block.

In 2006, the State of New York commissioned a disparity study to evaluate whether minority and women-owned business enterprises had a full and fair opportunity to participate in state contracting. The findings of the study were published on April 29, 2010, under the title "The State of Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises: Evidence from New York" (“the Disparity Study”). The report found evidence of statistically significant disparities between the level of participation of minority and women-owned business enterprises in state procurement contracting versus the number of minority and women-owned business enterprises that were ready, willing and able to participate in state procurements. As a result of these findings, the Disparity Study made recommendations concerning the implementation and operation of the statewide certified minority and women-owned business enterprises program. By submission of a bid or proposal in response to this solicitation, the Offerer agrees with all of the terms and conditions of Appendix A including Clause 12 - Equal Employment Opportunities for Minorities and Women. The contractor is required to ensure that it and any subcontractors awarded a subcontract over $25,000 for the construction, demolition, replacement, major repair, renovation, planning or design of real property and improvements thereon (the "Work") except where the Work is for the beneficial use of the Contractor, shall undertake or continue programs to ensure that minority group members and women are afforded equal employment opportunities without discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability or marital status. For these purposes, equal opportunity shall apply in the areas of recruitment, employment, job assignment, promotion, upgrading, demotion, transfer, layoff, termination, and rates of pay or other forms of compensation. This requirement does not apply to: (i) work, goods, or services unrelated to this contract; or (ii) employment outside New York State. Contractor further agrees to submit with the bid a staffing plan (Form EEO 100) identifying the anticipated work force to be utilized on the Contract and if awarded a contract, will, upon request, submit to OGS a workforce utilization report (Form EEO 101) identifying the work force actually utilized on the Contract if known. For purposes of this procurement, OGS hereby establishes a goal of 11% for Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBE) participation and 9% for Women-owned Business Enterprises (WBE) participation (collectively referred to as MWBE), for a total contract MWBE goal of 20%. A Contractor must document good faith efforts to provide meaningful participation by MWBEs as subcontractors or suppliers in the performance of this Contract and Contractor agrees that OGS may withhold payment pending receipt of the required MWBE documentation. The directory of New York State Certified MWBEs can be viewed at: ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇▇/MWBE.html. For guidance on how OGS will determine a Contractor’s “good faith efforts,” refer to 5 NYCRR §142.8. In accordance with 5 NYCRR §142.13, Offeror/Contractor acknowledges that if it is found to have willfully and intentionally failed to comply with the MWBE participation goals set forth in the Contract, such finding constitutes a breach of Contract and OGS may withhold payment from the Contractor as liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be calculated as an amount equaling the difference between: (1) all sums identified for payment to MWBEs had the Contractor achieved the contractual MWBE goals; and (2) all sums actually paid to MWBEs for work performed or materials supplied under the Contract. By submitting a bid or proposal, Offeror/Contractor agrees to submit the following documents and information as evidence of compliance with the foregoing: A. Offeror is required to submit a Utilization Plan on Form MWBE 100 with their bid or proposal. The Utilization Plan shall list the MWBEs the Contractor intends to use to perform the State contract and a description of the Contract scope of work that the Contractor intends to structure to meet the goals on the State contract, and the estimated or, if known, actual dollar amounts to be paid to and performance dates of each component of a State contract that the Contractor intends to be performed by a NYS Certified minority- or woman-owned business. Any modifications or changes to the agreed participation by NYS Certified M/WBEs after the Contract Award and during the term of the Contract must be reported on a revised M/WBE Utilization Plan and submitted to OGS. B. OGS will review the submitted MWBE Utilization Plan and advise the Offeror of OGS acceptance or issue a notice of deficiency within 20 days of receipt. C. If a notice of deficiency is issued, Offeror agrees that it shall respond to the notice of deficiency within seven (7) business days of receipt by submitting to the OGS Office of Minority and Women-Owned Enterprises, [35th Floor, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Phone: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ Fax: (518) ▇▇▇- ▇▇▇▇], a written remedy in response to the notice of deficiency. If the written remedy that is submitted is not timely or is found by OGS to be inadequate, OGS shall notify the Offeror and direct the Offeror to submit, within five (5) business days, a request for a partial or total waiver of MWBE participation goals on Form MWBE101/BDC 333. Failure to file the waiver form in a timely manner may be grounds for disqualification of the bid or proposal. D. OGS may disqualify an Offeror as being non-responsive under the following circumstances: a) If an Offeror fails to submit a MWBE Utilization Plan; b) If an Offeror fails to submit a written remedy to a notice of deficiency; c) If an Offeror fails to submit a request for waiver; or d) If OGS determines that the Offeror has failed to document good faith efforts. An Offeror who documents good faith efforts to meet the goal requirements may submit a request for a partial or total waiver on form MWBE 101/BDC 333, at the same time it submits its MWBE Utilization Plan. If a request for waiver is submitted with the MWBE Utilization Plan and is not accepted by OGS at that time, the provisions of clauses B-D above, will apply. A Contractor shall attempt to utilize, in good faith, any MBE or WBE identified within its MWBE Utilization Plan, during the performance of the Contract. Requests for a partial or total waiver of established goal requirements made subsequent to Contract Award may be made at any time during the term of the Contract to OGS, but must be made no later than prior to the submission of a request for final payment on the Contract. A Contractor is required to submit a Contractor’s Monthly Compliance & Payment Report on Form MWBE 102 to the OGS Office of Minority and Women-Owned Enterprises, [35th Floor, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Phone: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ Fax: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇], by the 10th day of each month during the term of the Contract documenting the progress made toward achievement of the MWBE goals of the Contract.
