Abstract: Performance management system PMS is an approach of managing performance and development throughout the year as against to annual or bi-annual basis. Recently the Nigerian government proposes to introduce the PMS as part of an effort to increase efficiency in service delivery. However, given that its employees were quite conversant with the old traditional appraisal system this study assess the feasibility of PMS adoption among its employees. A cross sectional survey of 162 respondents among both uniform and non-uniform staff of the federal government using an adapted version of UTUAT models was conducted. After performing logistic regressions, result indicated that majority 71.1% were willing to adopt the PMS whenever is introduced by the government. Three constructs of demographics of respondents, performance expectancy and effort expectancy positively influences the adoption of PMS. However, social influence as well as facility constructs were not significant predictors of behavioral intention to adopt PMS. It was recommended that government should look for ways to enhance and improve PMS benefits and the learning process of the proposed PMS. It should also look at the issues of work place relationship among employees and promote social interaction as it may be lacking in the work place. More so, as earlier stated government should equally look at the needed facility required before introducing the proposed system even when employees did not percept it as something.
