Is anyone doing anything innovative in the way of measuring the effectiveness of HR programs? Does anyone know who are the leading companies in this area? I am looking for companies actually implementing measurement systems, not consultants who offer systems.

That depends, I guess, on the program. I don't know of any HR programs that would be launched without a specific purpose in mind,like, for example, retention. Unless I'm missing the point, measurement is made by how effective the program is in acheiving its purpose.

I think I my be reading your question too literally.

I am looking for ways to measure such things as:
- how the performance appraisal system is being accepted by employees
- do employees think that the employee survey is an effective way to voice their opinions
- do they think that the survey results in concrete actions for improvement

These are just a few examples. I hope that helps to clarify.
