Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the fiscal year (FY) 2000 performance plans of the 24 agencies covered by the Chief Financial Officers Act, focusing on the: (1) extent to which the agencies' plans include the three key elements of informative performance plans: (a) clear pictures of intended performance; (b) specific discussions of strategies and resources; and (c) confidence that performance information will be credible; and (2) degree of improvement the FY 2000 performance plans represent over the FY 1999 plans. GAO noted that: (1) on the whole, agencies' FY 2000 performance plans show moderate improvements over the FY 1999 plans and contain better information and perspective; (2) however, key weaknesses remain, and important opportunities exist to improve future plans; (3) the plans provide general pictures of intended performance across the agencies suggesting that important opportunities for continued improvements still remain to be addressed; (4) while all the plans include baseline and trend data for at least some of their goals and measures, inconsistent attention is given to resolving mission-critical management challenges and program risks; (5) these management challenges and program risks continue to seriously undermine the federal government's performance and to leave it vulnerable to billions of dollars in waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement; (6) agencies could also provide clearer pictures of intended performance by providing greater attention to crosscutting program issues; (7) coordinating crosscutting programs is important because mission fragmentation and program overlap are widespread across the federal government; (8) most agencies' plans show some improvement in their recognition of crosscutting program efforts; (9) however, few plans attempt the more challenging tasks of discussing planned strategies for coordination and establishing complementary performance goals and common or complementary performance measures; (10) continued progress on this issue is important because GAO has found that unfocused and uncoordinated crosscutting programs waste scarce funds, confuse and frustrate program customers, and limit overall program effectiveness; (11) crosscutting programs involve more than one agency, and coordination therefore requires the ability to look across agencies and ensure that the appropriate coordination is taking place; (12) agencies' discussions of how resources and strategies will be used to achieve results show mixed progress; (13) some agencies show progress in making useful linkages between their budget requests and performance goals, while other agencies are not showing the necessary progress; (14) the continuing lack of confidence that performance information will be credible is also a source of major concern; (15) many agencies offer only limited indications that performance data will be credible; and (16) the inattention to ensuring that performance data will be sufficiently timely, complete, accurate, useful, and consistent is an important weakness in the performance plans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the approaches that agencies have proposed or adopted to verify and validate performance information. GAO noted that: (1) GAO found examples illustrating a wide range of possible approaches for increasing the quality, validity, and credibility of performance information; (2) these approaches included a variety of senior management actions, agencywide efforts, and specific program manager and technical staff activities; (3) these approaches can be organized into four general strategies; (4) management can seek to improve the quality of performance data by fostering an organizational commitment and capacity for data quality; (5) managers are ultimately responsible for the quality of performance information; (6) GAO found examples of management communications and actions to encourage the needed coordination, resource allocation, and attention to data quality issues; (7) reporting efforts to build organizational commitment to obtaining, maintaining, and using good information and to developing the organization's capacity to do so can help improve the credibility of performance information; (8) verification and validation can include assessing the quality of existing performance data; (9) assessments might target specific measures in the performance plan or more broadly assess major data systems to identify problems that may affect the use of performance data; (10) assessments were conducted internally, built into ongoing work processes and data systems, or involved independent verification and external feedback; (11) assessments of data quality are of little value unless agencies are responding to identified data limitations; (12) communicating significant data limitations and their implications allows stakeholders to judge the data's credibility for their intended use and to use the data in appropriate ways; (13) in addition to examples of reporting data limitations and their implications in performance plans or other formats, GAO saw examples of efforts to improve, supplement, or replace existing data; (14) building quality into the development of performance data may help prevent future errors and minimize the need to continually fix existing data; (15) GAO found examples of efforts to build in data quality, including involving stakeholders, providing feedback on data quality problems, and using accepted practices in planning, implementing, and reporting performance data; and (16) within these general strategies are more specific approaches that agencies may choose to adopt.

Book excerpt: GPRAMA requires agencies to identify and report on how they will resolve major management challenges-programs or management functions with greater vulnerability to waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement where a failure to perform well could seriously affect the ability of an agency or the government to achieve its mission or goals. Agencies are to describe challenges and provide performance information for resolving those challenges in agency performance plans. GPRAMA includes a provision for GAO to periodically review its implementation. The objectives of this report were to (1) assess to what extent agency performance plans and reports address major management challenges that include, for example, GAO High-Risk issues and challenges identified by the agency Inspector General; and (2) identify illustrative examples that selected agencies reported taking to address their major management challenges. GAO examined agency performance plans and reports using GPRAMA and interviewed OMB and agency staff.
