    Performance indicator – result is measured against a target. It is usually related directly to a council service and an indicator of service effectiveness, efficiency and/or success. 

  • 2

    Contextual indicator – result is measured against a forecast. It is usually outcome focussed and often not wholly within the council’s control. Contextual indicators are included as they may impact service delivery, demand and the achievement of wider council goals.
