This framework sets out the general principles behind producing high quality performance information – that is information used to measure an organisation’s progress towards its objectives. It looks at what sort of information is worth collecting as performance information, and the principles behind pulling together a set of performance measures. It has been put together jointly by the National Audit Office, Audit Commission, Cabinet Office, Office for National Statistics and HM Treasury, reflecting common thinking of these organisations. The sections discuss the role of performance information, and the practical issues in putting a performance information system in place. They also give some pointers to further sources of information. | Data Asset Framework Implementation Guide October 2009 Acknowledgement This guide is based on the lessons learned through DAF pilot projects and early exemplars.

Originally called the Data Audit Framework the tool is being renamed in light of user feedback. Some pilots found the term audit could be off-putting to researchers and misrepresented the survey process .
