Because tracking progress is essential!

Monitoring the execution of improvement actions

Automatic deadline reminders

Timely notifications about upcoming deadlines help ensure that activities are completed on time and without unnecessary delays.

Clearly defined responsibilities

Responsible persons and coordinators are clearly assigned to each activity, making collaboration and implementation tracking easier.

Progress tracking

Activity status, deadlines, delays and implementation rates are available in one place, providing a clear overview of CAF implementation progress.

Common Assessment Framework

What is CAF?

CAF is a European quality management model specifically developed for public sector organisations. Through systematic self-assessment, it helps organisations identify their strengths and areas for improvement and direct their efforts towards continuous improvement.

Why CAF?

CAF helps public sector organisations improve the way they work and the quality of the services they provide. It encourages employee involvement, evidence-based decision-making and continuous improvement, with the aim of achieving better results for citizens and other users.
