Executive Order #4, Governor Carney’s Executive Order #4 established the Government Efficiency and Accountability Review (GEAR) to develop recommendations for increasing efficiency and effectiveness across State government, improve the strategic planning process, improve the use of metrics in resource allocation decisions and develop continuous improvement practices. The GEAR Field Team, Enterprise Services Delivery Team and P3 Task Force oversee nearly 163 projects and report project status, performance and ROI. GEAR has implemented Continuous Improvement Practitioner training for State employees (project management, LEAN and change management) with over 155 graduates. Continuous Improvement job classifications for Project Manager, Business Analyst, LEAN Analyst and Change Manager are being finalized. Through the training, projects and job classifications, GEAR is leading the building of a sustainable culture of Continuous Improvement to be more data driven with visible, repeatable, optimized processes with measurable outcomes.
