[PLACEHOLDER CONTENT] — demonstrative text to be replaced with the final analysis via the /admin panel.

Romania’s public administration remains fragmented, with overlapping mandates and uneven execution capacity. This analysis proposes a framework for assessing institutional performance and identifies the reform levers with the greatest potential impact.

Key findings

  1. The lack of systematic policy evaluation reduces the predictability of decisions.
  2. Service digitisation progresses unevenly across levels of government.
  3. Civil-service careers are insufficiently linked to performance.

Recommendations

  • Introduce a standardised ex-ante and ex-post evaluation mechanism.
  • Strengthen digital skills at the local level.
  • A merit-based career path with continuous training.
