CAPSTAT


CapStat is a performance-based accountability program that uniquely identifies opportunities to make District government run more efficiently, while providing a higher quality of service to its residents. The program is modeled after Baltimore’s CitiStat but is tailored to the needs of the District of Columbia. CapStat is not a technology application; however, technology will support the discussions. Accountability sessions are central to the program. For one hour, all executives responsible for implementing specific actions will be in one room to discuss performance data and explore ways to improve government services, as well as make commitments for follow-up actions.
