Results & Resources versus Reach Source: Steve Montague, The Three Rs of Performance: Core concepts for planning, measurement, and management, Performance Management Network Inc., 1997, p 120. The ‘clustering’ of services or activities by results, resources per user, and reach can provide new perspective. Intensive Problem Solving / R&D Technical Specialist Support Education Information / Advice Awareness Building Reach Results + Resources per user education and communication (workshops, speaking, trade shows) routine advisory dissemination of voluntary codes mass media Information products policy development program funding enforcement and prosecution specialized advisory investigations inspections and monitoring
