By Robert Dixon

 The Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA) has launched a state-of-the-art Automated Performance Management System (APMS) aimed at improving staff performance, productivity, and efficiency in the organization.  

According to an LRA release dated September 30, 2024, the new system, which will take effect in 2025, is expected to significantly enhance the LRA’s revenue collection as it strives to move from collecting millions to billions.

The new digital performance management system, according to the release, will foster and create a framework for planning, reviewing and the evaluation of key performance indicators which will be tied to staff individual and collective performance through digital means.

Performing the official launch, LRA Commissioner General, James Dorbor Jallah, praised the Human Resources Division (HRD) and the Management Information System Division (MISD) for their outstanding work in producing the APMS that modernizes staff performance and effectiveness.

CG Jallah expressed the LRA's commitment to investing in technology and staff development to boost the LRA overall performance and revenue collection.

 "We need to raise billions, and to do so, we must address the leakages in our system. Technology can help us, and that’s why we will invest adequately in  technology at the LRA,” he said.
