Management Research
BBMR is not only tasked with putting forth and monitoring a budget for the City every year; it also has the job of closely evaluating City programs and services in order to determine cost-effectiveness and revenue-generating potential while simultaneously achieving high levels of citizen satisfaction. In 2012, BBMR began conducting management research projects for selected City services in order to ensure that they were being implemented efficiently and effectively. Management research projects are conducted in accordance with a protocol that includes entrance and exit conferences with the service being evaluated, rigorous research and analysis, a written report with recommendations, and a presentation to the Mayor.
