In the analysis, an example software model has been developed for the establishment of strategic planning and performance indicator in a higher education institution

Today, higher education institutions are active in the external environment and in a competitive structure. This structure forces the administrative processes of higher education institutions into some planning and change processes. Higher education institutions operate not only in a national but also in a global competitive environment. Moreover, social and industrial expectations are increasing and changing day by day. This change and new expectations make it necessary for higher education institutions to develop effective and sustainable management practices by adopting an innovative public management approach. Some of the elements that make administrative development mandatory are the need to provide new sources of finance, commercialization of knowledge and experiences, and to achieve superiority in national and international competitions and rankings.
It is expected that higher education institutions will use their institutional resources and capabilities effectively, efficiently and economically based on increasing change and expectations. Changes and expectations in the external environment of higher education institutions necessitate the effective use of internal financial, physical and human resources. In addition, higher education institutions are also required to convey their corporate policies and practices in a transparent and accountable manner to the society and the supreme boards. In order to adapt to the changes occurring in internal and external environment in higher education institutions, it is necessary to develop effective strategies and policies in line with the changes in the internal processes as well as in the establishment of systems to enable employees at all levels to motivate their employees around the organizational objectives.
Within the framework of Public Financial Management and Control Law No. 5018, legal infrastructure of performance management and budgeting systems has been established in public institutions. In addition, Law No. 5018 also sets out the requirements of public institutions for strategic planning and performance-based budgeting.
In this analysis, firstly the legal and competitive grounds and the changes in the management processes which are necessary for the establishment of a budget follow-up system by conducting an activity-based strategic planning and performance management in higher education institutions were examined. On the other hand, algorithms have been designed and presented by a software and database oriented model based on a strategic planning and performance management system for higher education institutions. Finally, possible institutional policy proposals and benefits for higher education institutions were discussed through the relevant model Son
