The article analyses the causes of the gap between strategic goals and their execution in central government bodies of Uzbekistan and proposes mechanisms for integrating strategic planning with the budget and performance monitoring. Content analysis of strategic and programme documents identifies five interrelated causes: institutional fragmentation, mismatched planning horizons, the dominance of activity indicators, a budget classification insensitive to strategic goals, and weak feedback. Their consequences include dispersed resources, formal reporting and blurred accountability for results. The author substantiates five mechanisms: strategic tagging of budget programmes, rolling three-year operational plans synchronised with the medium-term budget, a hierarchy of indicators supported by indicator passports, a unified monitoring register, and a two-speed review cycle. The issues to be regulated by a law on strategic planning are also specified.
