Over 13,000 projects listed on performance tracker website – Oppong Nkrumah

The Minister-Designate for Works and Housing, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has revealed that about 13,000 projects with their geolocations have been listed on the performance tracker website launched by the government.

Mr Oppong Nkrumah made this known while speaking on behalf of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo at the launch of the Performance Tracker on Wednesday, April 10, 2024.

“You will find in the latest version, with the data set cut-off as of June 2023, that there are over 13,000 projects across the 261 Districts, across the 16 Regions, across the 18 Ministries that have been validated and updated on this platform[Performance Tracker Website] and I want to once again congratulate the team that has been doing this exercise across the country. Over 13,000 projects have been updated here, and like I said earlier, a lot more will be updated on this platform,” he noted.

The platform is intended to serve as a reliable mechanism for showcasing the progress and impact of infrastructure projects, thereby instilling trust and confidence among citizens.

“The performance tracker is a database that showcases the performances of the government of Ghana, and it showcases the various projects that have been executed through the 261 districts, and this database has two interfaces. One is the website, so you can go to the website, www.performancetracker.gov.gh, and you can access that database.

“The other is an app, and today, the mobile phone is a very powerful tool and sometimes even beyond what your desktop can do. On the app, on the IOS system, the app version has been uploaded, and in the coming week, on the Android, the app version will also be uploaded”.

The performance tracker is also expected to address long-standing concerns about the accuracy and reliability of project presentations, particularly the use of artist’s impressions to depict final outcomes.
