Annual Report and Accounts 2006/7

Annual Report and Accounts 2006/7 This has been another very successful year at the Met Office, building on the momentum of our achievements in 2005/6 and meeting all of our Key Performance Targets (KPTs) for the second year running in 2006/7. For the second year running, we have met all of our Key Performance Targets (KPTs) – a significant achievement. The KPTs measure the accuracy of our forecasts, our Commercial Business profitability, Return on Capital Employed and the support we provide to Government. This has been an important year for clarifying the vision and strategic direction of the Met Office. In the past twelve months we have published our vision, ‘making our forecasts essential to everyone, every day’ and outlined our strategic direction in ‘Shaping our Future’ which accompanies the updated Corporate Plan 2007–2011. Both documents ensure that everything we do takes us a step closer to our vision and build on the momentum and commitments of the previous Corporate Plan 2005–2010.
