    (2) Modern management practice and various statutory and regulatory 
provisions require the IRS to set performance goals for organizational 
units and to measure the results achieved by those organizations with 
respect to those goals. To fulfill these requirements, the IRS has 
established a balanced performance measurement system, composed of three 
elements: Customer Satisfaction Measures; Employee Satisfaction 
Measures; and Business Results Measures. The IRS is likewise required to 
establish a performance evaluation system for individual employees.
    (b) Effective date. This part 801 is effective September 7, 1999.
