Army commander Lt. Gen. Hernando DCA Iriberri made this statement during the Performance Governance System Revalida of the PA at the Philippine International Convention Center in Pasay City.
Iriberri said the ATR aims to develop capabilities needed to support the Philippine Development Plan, Philippine Defense Reform, Armed Forces of the Philippines Transformation Roadmap and Internal Peace and Security Plan “Bayanihan”.
“It (ATR) embodies the Army’s sincere commitment to pursue genuine reform and transformation founded on good governance and performance excellence,” Iriberri stressed.
He added that the ATR promotes an Army that focuses on the institution rather than personalities, consider long-term strategies and approaches all matters from a systems perspectives to address interconnected priorities than single issues.
The ATR also seeks for the PA to become a “world class Army by 2028.”
Iriberri was pleased to point out that the Army Governance and Strategy Management Office was established in 2012 to oversee and manage the implementation of the ATR.
The strategy is being cascaded down to the levels of units, offices, and individuals and subsidiary performance scorecards being aligned with that of the enterprise, he added.
“This is being done through various projects and activities, framework systems and processes that it designed to institutionalize the PGS.
Under the ATR, the PA revised and simplified the corevalues into three most essential, enduring, and elementalset of values that truly represent the organization, namely:
1.) Honor, which is attributed to self-worth, personaldignity, integrity, and discipline;
2.) Patriotism, which resonates as love of country and manifests as loyalty, courage, and allegianceto the constitution; and
3.) Duty, which is expressed through professional-ism, excellence, resourcefulness, dynamism, dedication, and commitment to sworn duty. (PNA)
