Thanks everyone. But it looks like there have not been any publicly released SMART goals that the Merit system was intended to achieve.

If you are not familiar with S.M.A.R.T. goals here is a post form MIT about them (http://hrweb.mit.edu/performance-development/goal-setting-developmental-planning/smart-goals).

S.M.A.R.T. goals are:

Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Relevant
Time-bound

If anyone runs across any, I would love to read them. Thanks again
