Abstract

This article introduces the concept of efficiency and discusses the validity of the concept being used as the primary criterion of performance measurement in the public sector. From Wilson, the father of public administration in 1887 to Osborne and Gaebler, advocates of reinventing government in 1992, efficiency has been said to be the first ideology of public administration. Wilson pinpointed the role of government: government should be able to implement delegated tasks from the legislature.
