2.1: Research
Identify areas where research provides strong evidence regarding the comparative cost-effectiveness of agency investments Other Information:
OMB invites agencies to identify areas where research provides strong evidence regarding the comparative cost-effectiveness
of agency investments. The research may pertain to the allocation of funding across agency programs (e.g., research showing
that some funding streams have higher returns on investments) or within programs (e.g., research showing that some types of
grantees or programmatic approaches have higher returns). Agencies should describe the body of research and then apply its
results to support a proposed resource reallocation. OMB is more likely to support an existing resource allocation or a request
for new resources supported in this way, and may feature the agency's reasoning in the 2014 Budget.
