The present note provides guidance to operating units on results-based management (RBM) in UNDP. The note offers an explanation of the conceptual and methodological building blocks as well as the instruments that represent UNDP's application of the RBM philosophy. It is intended to help establish organisation-wide standards with regard to key aspects of results methodology and terminology. Managing for results is not completely new to UNDP but what makes the current approach different is the determination to make RBM the driving force behind the organisation's institutional culture and practice - and to develop and apply a corporate methodology for this purpose.
