Do KPIs capture the wider and deeper benefits of the arts, including the intangible and intrinsic, and the personal, social and political? Should more multidimensional assessments be used in addition to those that are economic and instrumental and that are the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_final easily measured? What should these be?

He said that funding across the public sector is competitive, and NAC has to demonstrate the impact its funding achieves in order toThe Art of Measuring the Arts |4secure funding for the arts. Furthermore, as a statutory board under MCCY. NAC aligns its priorities with the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_finalMCCY’s. This in turn directs how NAC disburses funding and determines the KPIs for the recipients of funding. The fundamental question is not why therthe-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_final
e needs to be KPIs, but what KPIs should be used. Mr Kwok stressed that NAC has taken into account feedback from the arts community in designing KPIs The Art of Measuring the ArtsFull report on the Roundtable on Bang for the Funding Buck: KPIs and Capturing the Impact of the Arts, part of the IPS-SA the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_finalconversation with NAC. Other examples include developing qualitative KPIs in an effort to go beyond just hard numbers, and adjusting the way NAC calculates the Cost Recovery Ratio (CRR)— assessing how viable a company would be without NAC's financial support—as a KPI. NAC also draws reference from t the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_finalhe work of arts councils outside of Singapore to understand the KPIs they have been tracking. Mr Kwok ended his presentation by acknowledging that thethe-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_final

She said the link between a numeric result and the actual impact of an artwork is often not easily demonstrated because this impact is not always tangible. While NAC has made efforts to move away from purely numeric KPIs the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_final, more can still be done. She gave examples of frameworks that take into consideration the intrinsic and intangible nature of the arts when measuringthe-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_final

For instance, in-depth studies of subjective audience experiences have measured the emotional resonance, and the transcendent and empoweriThe Art of Measuring the ArtsFull report on the Roundtable on Bang for the Funding Buck: KPIs and Capturing the Impact of the Arts, part of the IPS-SA the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_finalhaviour. She added that the way KPIs are implemented implies that an arts organisation has "underperformed’’ or even “failed” by falling short of its KPIs. Thus, she called for KPIs to be seen as one dimension of indicating the effectiveness of an arts group to inform how they can improve, rather th the-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_finalan the finality of being absolute measures of performance.The Art of Measuring the Arts |5Defining ambiguityMs Kuo spoke about The Theatre Practice’sthe-art-of-measuring-the-arts_full-report-on-the-roundtable-on-bang-for-the-funding-buck_final
