ABSTRACT:
The Lahore Ring Road Authority (LRRA) is a public sector organisation, under the provincial government of the Punjab. It is responsible for the construction, maintenance and operation of the Lahore Ring Road. The chairperson of LRRA, Rashid Mahmood, is a graduate in Public Administration from the US. He has studied the concepts of variable incentive plans based on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), and is trying to apply these concepts to the Ring Road Police (RRP), in order to create a motivated and committed police force. He has taken the approval of the Chief Minister Punjab to give a special allowance to the wardens of the RRP, however he is thinking of converting this fixed allowance into a performance based incentive. Performance based variable incentive plan is a new concept which has been largely untested in the public sector. Rashid expects that it will generate a lot of criticism and resistance, thus, before announcing the proposed performance based incentive, he arranges a brainstorming session with his close colleagues. He wants to get their views about the proposed plan so that he can move forward towards getting the approval for this system.
