22 – Draft
Accomplishment Evaluation Criteria
The employee did not meet the
expectations of the objective even
though circumstances allowed for
its achievement.
For example:
No significant barriers or problems
arose, yet the objective was still
not accomplished.
Despite the employee receiving
extra guidance, the objective was
not met.
There were no circumstances
beyond the employee’s control that
prevented him or her from
achieving the objective.
The employee partially met the
expectations of the objective;
the result fell short of meeting
the standards for quality,
quantity, timeliness, and cost-
effectiveness associated with
the objective.
For example:
The employee’s work required
significant revisions.
The employee required
additional guidance to meet the
objective, beyond what would
normally be expected for his/her
level.
The result was not as good as it
could have been, given
available resources, and
therefore only had a minor
impact on work unit,
organizational, or IC-related
goals.
Others (e.g., peers, customers,
stakeholders, etc.)
acknowledged that the results
did not full meet their
expectations.
The employee fully met the
expectations of the objective; the
result met the standards for
quality, quantity, timeliness, and
cost-effectiveness associated with
the objective (e.g., met designated
budget and/or timeframe) and was
achieved with the appropriate level
of guidance.
For example:
The employee’s work required
only minimal revisions.
The result had a clear, positive
impact on organizational or IC-
related goals.
Others (e.g., peers, customers,
stakeholders, etc.) acknowledged
that the results met their
expectations.
The employee exceeded
expectations of the objective; the
results surpassed the standards
for quality and quantity, and the
timeframe associated with the
objective (e.g., saved time or
money).
For example:
The employee’s work required
very few minor revisions or
changes (fewer than expected).
The objective was exceeded
with less guidance and support
than would ordinarily be
expected for the employee’s
level.
The result had a direct and
significant positive impact on
achieving work unit,
organizational, and/or IC-related
goals.
The result reflected outstanding
judgment in identifying
procedures to accomplish the
objective.
Others (e.g., peers, customers,
stakeholders, etc.)
acknowledged that the results
exceeded their expectations.
The employee greatly exceeded
expectations of the objective; the
result was exceptional and
significantly surpassed the
standards for quality, quantity,
and timeframe associated with
the objective (e.g., saved
significant time or money)
For example:
The employee’s work was
thorough, error-free, and served
.as a role model for others
The objective was greatly
exceeded with far less guidance
and support than would
ordinarily be expected for the
employee’s level.
The result had a highly
significant impact and played a
vital role in achieving critical
work unit, organizational, and/or
IC-related goals.
Others (e.g., peers, customers,
stakeholders, etc.)
acknowledged that the result far
exceeded their expectations.
