“This study concerns approaches to discerning, measuring, and assessing public values and the ways of creating them. In recent years there has been tremendous growth in both theory and practice associated with managing public service delivery through network structures. Much of this research has tried to address issues surrounding organizational incentives for collaboration. One of the less studied mechanisms for promoting collaboration is the use of performance information, coupled with information about the public value of specific decisions. Specifically, this paper reports on an experiment that uses teams to analyze the role of performance information, including public value information, as a catalyst for collaboration. Our goal is to contribute to the theory and literature concerning public value incentives for collaboration.”
