Compared to the previous plan, the fourth action plan showed progress in consistency, ambition, and inclusion of key issues, both from the civil society agenda regarding rights and democratic governance and from the global OGP agenda. However, it reported setbacks in its implementation, with the proportion of commitments completed at least substantially and an even greater reduction in the proportion of commitments with significant early results. Likewise, the implementation process experienced a higher-than-usual drop in civil society participation due, at least in part, to the perception of the negative impacts of the discontinuity caused by the change in government management. However, it also yielded valuable lessons, particularly about the potential of the strategy adopted to federalize open government. (More)

The data below is updated periodically, most often after large numbers of new action plans and IRM reports.
Commitment Performance
The following variables answer the question “Did this commitment open government?“, and focus on how government practices have changed as a result of the commitment’s implementation.
Starred commitments in OGP are one of the ways the IRM designates promising reforms. The graph below shows where the major areas for improvement in action plan design and implementation should take place based on past action plans.

Selected Dimensions of Open Government
This section captures how each OGP member can play a leadership role, based on IRM-based findings and third-party scores. This list does not cover all of open government and OGP members are not required to take any action.
Action implications
These are recommendations on the role that each OGP member might play in each policy area. The recommendations are derived from a combination of the IRM-based findings and third-party scores.
IRM-based findings
Reflect the performance of commitments in a particular policy area, as assessed by the IRM.
(NC) No Commitments (CA) Commitment(s) in the policy area. (IR) IRM-Reviewed: At least one IRM-assessed commitment. (C) Was Complete: At least one commitment was substantially or fully completed. (A) Was Ambitious: At least one commitment with moderate or transformative potential impact. (ER) Showed Early Results: At least one commitment opened government in a “Major” or “Outstanding” way.
Third-party scores
Reflect “real-world” performance, i.e., performance outside of the OGP framework. Scores are comprised of various indicators collected by respected organizations.
As leaders, these members may consider playing a peer-support role by sharing their experiences and innovations with others in OGP, if they are not already doing so.
These are members making OGP commitments to improve their performance in the respective policy area. As members that have demonstrated political commitment through OGP, the next step is ensuring that implemented commitments have maximal impact.
These members have room for improvement in the respective policy area according to the third-party score and have not leveraged their OGP action plans to address the issue. They may consider reforms in the respective policy area, either within or outside of the OGP framework.
These members have not made ambitious OGP commitments or commitments that have shown early results. However, these members have recently made commitment(s) in the respective policy area that have not yet been assessed by the IRM. The OGP community will monitor these commitments and soon report on the progress achieved.
There is not enough third-party data available to identify an action implication.
