The Center for National Documents and Records Agency (CNDRA) has set an ambitious goal to rank among Liberia’s top three performing government institutions by 2026, following a strong performance in the 2025 Performance Management and Compliance System (PMCS).
The agency recorded an impressive 93.3 percent score, earning an “excellent” rating among 33 public institutions assessed nationwide.
The achievement was formally recognized by President Joseph Nyuma Boakai as part of ongoing efforts to enhance accountability and efficiency across government.
Director General, D. Nelson Bearngar made the disclosure Thursday during a mass staff meeting marking the official presentation of the performance certificate.
Bearngar commended employees for their dedication and professionalism, attributing the high score to teamwork and commitment across the institution.
Despite the achievement, the National Archives DG urged staff not to become complacent but to build on the progress made.
He challenged employees to increase their efforts, maintain high standards, and work collectively toward securing a place among the country’s top three institutions.
“Our performance is commendable, but we must aim higher. Achieving a top-three position will require sustained dedication, discipline, and innovation in service delivery,” he emphasized.
Receiving the certificate on behalf of the staff, Human Resource Director Sam Fahnbulleh expressed gratitude to the administration for its leadership and support.
He also praised employees for their cooperation and resilience, noting that their contributions were key to the agency’s success.
As part of the recognition process, the certificate was later presented to CNDRA Workers Association President Jeremiah Zarwie in acknowledgment of the collective efforts of the workforce.
With its current standing among Liberia’s high-performing public institutions, the National Archives is now focused on strengthening its operations and improving service delivery as it works toward achieving its 2026 target.
