Most supervisors and employees use Bentley’s online system for performance reviews. The formal review process starts with an email inviting an employee to log in to the PMP system and complete a self-evaluation. Once the self-evaluation is completed and shared with the supervisor, the supervisor completes the performance review, evaluating the employee’s prior year’s performance with respect to the competencies for the employee’s Job Family, setting goals for the upcoming year, and creating a development plan. The supervisor and employee should then meet to go over the performance review. This conversation is the most important part of the performance management process!
