Ngā putanga | Our outcomes

The five outcomes in our Strategic Intentions 2021–2025 set out our contribution to making Aotearoa New Zealand a better place.

This section explains work MBIE carried out in 2021/22 to contribute towards the achievement of these five outcomes. Outcome indicators and output performance measures are different ways of assessing performance.

Our outcome indicators represent movement towards our longer-term goals and are trend based. They need to be viewed over the long term (multi-year) and often reflect the efforts of many actors, including MBIE. They provide a view of whether the indicators are moving in the right direction. All outcome indicators are reported using the most up-to-date data available at the time of analysis. An example of our detailed trend analysis is provided for each outcome, in the format of a graph.

Our output performance measures assess whether we have achieved specific services or functions that collectively support the overall achievement of our outcomes.

We need a business environment that is dynamic, where businesses are able to respond to new opportunities and resources are allocated to their most productive use. Investment and connections are crucial. We also need to innovate sustainably and be able to quickly adopt new economic thinking.
