Government Solutions
Governments are expected to be accountable, forward thinking, standards focused, and relatable to the public. McCann Associates has continually redefined how governments at all levels implement systems of evaluation, accountability, employee development, and transparency. Building upon decades of research and execution, McCann Associates provides solutions that are not only powerful, accurate, and reliable, they are also scalable while remaining affordable.
Evaluation
Measured Success™ is a fully customizable assessment platform that enables efficient and reliable workforce evaluation at all career levels and stages. The capabilities of Measured Success™ are extensive, yet they target specific needs. Government administrators can easily manage the employee life cycle from recruitment to retirement, including candidate assessment, managing the candidate selection process, and identifying employee skill gaps and competencies. Detailed reports ensure administrators have a clear picture of the public workforce at all times, enabling them to govern effectively.
Accountability
A government administrator’s ability to interact with his/her data to get actionable answers is critical in making informed decisions quickly and effectively. Rather than a pre-defined set of static reports, iSEEK Supercruncher™ offers infinite scalability that makes every conceivable combination of inquiry related to performance management available in seconds. This unique approach to flexible data selection and drill-down capability guarantees the data to be actionable for the decision-making process. With this simple question-and-answer interface, institutions can save money on data warehousing and eliminate risks of wasted resources associated with knowledge deficit.
Employee Development
McCann Associates offers solutions that can help work toward the goal of the Plain Writing Act of 2010, instructing public servants on the process of simple and concise communication in order to:
- improve public understanding of government communications, procedures, forms, and applications;
- save money and increase efficiency through better understanding and fewer errors;
- reduce the need for the public to seek clarification from agency staff;
- improve public understanding of agency requirements and thereby assist the public in complying with them;
- reduce resources spent on enforcement.
