Abstract

The implementation of government programs often does not lead to the achievement of their strategic goals, to the solution of those socio-economic tasks for which they were developed. Based on the material of several state programs, the work shows that one of the significant causes of this problem is the inconsistency of the target parameters of state programs (indicators, measures, control events) with the strategic goals of these programs. The conducted research confirmed that in practice, the degree of consistency of indicators and measures (control events) of state programs with their strategic goals varies from program to program: a number of programs have approved irrelevant indicators that do not contribute to achieving the strategic goals of the relevant state programs. Another important reason for the failure to achieve both strategic and operational goals of government programs is the inconsistency of measures (control events) with the goals of government programs. The paper reveals the concept of inconsistency of goals in management, provides recommendations on the selection of agreed target parameters of government programs. A significant obstacle to improving the quality of government program management is the current methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of program implementation, according to which the main condition for the success of the implementation is the achievement of target values of indicators without taking into account the achievement of strategic goals.

Keywords: government program, strategic and operational goals, inconsistency of goals, achievability of goals, indicators, measures, control events, national goals.
