However, due to the limitations of the papers discussing the topic of performance measurement for public sector organizations, thus this research explores existing research on this topic. The main objective of this research was to know the issue of performance measurement in public sector organizations. The systematic literature review method was used to explore different issues related to performance measurement for public sector organizations. In this research, various type of performance measurement for public sector organizations is described. Based on the findings, we suggest concerning determinants of performance measurement for public sector organizations at individual and organizational levels as the fundamental performance measurement elements, due to the lack and the limitation of the research concerning individuals as a critical element. The source of the literature from the Scopus Preview from 2013 to 2022 was taken by implementing the typology agenda. The result proposes a performance measurement typology based on the unit, level, measures, target, and realization. Besides, the result confirms that there has not been in-depth research on performance measurement for public sector organizations specifically on the public sector especially mixed-method research approaches from emerging and developing countries of the individual.
