President William Ruto is set to officially release the long-awaited Report on the Evaluation of the Performance of Ministries, State Corporations, and Tertiary Institutions for the Financial Year 2023/2024 on Wednesday, 11th June 2025, at State House, Nairobi.
The comprehensive report marks the culmination of the Annual Performance Evaluation Exercise, a critical component of Kenya’s performance contracting framework. Spearheaded by the Public Service Performance Management Unit under the Office of the Chief of Staff and Head of Public Service, the evaluation aims to uphold transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement in the delivery of public services.
Between December 2024 and March 2025, a total of 451 entities were evaluated. These included 22 Ministries, as well as the State House, the Office of the Deputy President, the Office of the Attorney General and Department of Justice, and the Office of the Chief of Staff and Head of Public Service. Also assessed were 266 State Corporations and 159 Tertiary Institutions.
Originally scheduled for release on 8th May 2025, the report was postponed to allow for thorough validation and is now set to be unveiled during a high-profile event attended by top government officials and public sector leaders.
Head of Public Service Felix Koskei has sent out formal invitations to a wide array of stakeholders. Among the invited are the Attorney General, all Cabinet and Principal Secretaries, CEOs and board chairs of State Corporations, Chancellors and Vice Chancellors of Public Universities, as well as Principals and board heads of Tertiary Institutions.
“The evaluation and ranking process is a critical tool for ensuring transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement in public service delivery,” Koskei noted in a statement.
The report’s release is expected to spotlight top-performing institutions while exposing underperformers, setting the stage for strategic reforms. It also reinforces the government’s commitment to results-based management and value-for-money governance.
As Kenyans await the revelations, the scorecard will offer a clear picture of who delivered on their mandates and who fell short in a period marked by tight budgets, shifting priorities, and heightened public scrutiny.
