Adopt SMART targets. The CESD [Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development] made clear after the review of the first sustainable development strategies, that departments need to choose targets that are SMART: specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound. The challenge, therefore, is to adopt targets and performance measures that provide a clear view of the progress that has been made and identify areas requiring additional attention.

OBS

The letters SMART can also stand for: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, trackable, as well as : specific, measurable, attainable, results-focused, timely.

Adopter des cibles SMART. Le CEDD [Commissaire à l'environnement et au développement durable] a bien précisé, à l'issue d'un examen des premières stratégies de développement durable, que les ministères doivent choisir des cibles qui sont «SMART», c'est-à-dire stratégiques, mesurables, réalisables, réalistes et limitées dans le temps. Le défi consiste ainsi à adopter des cibles et mesures du rendement qui font clairement ressortir les progrès réalisés et mettent en lumière les domaines qui exigent une attention plus poussée.
