Plunder Scenario 42

Your agency secured a CDBG grant from HUD to repair, rebuild, or replace destitute citizens' homes a hit by a recent disaster. Market research shows that similar attempts in other communities are moving slowly. How to you ensure success for your program?

AP Response:

We structured the incentive program around milestone achievements, tying payments to the number of homes reached within designated timeframes. Rather than increasing overall compensation, we accelerated payment schedules while adjusting the milestone incentive—redistributing a lump sum originally planned for the end of the contract into earlier incremental payments.
