2.B: GPRA and GMRA
In carrying out the Government Performance and Results Act: ensure that agency performance plans are fully integrated into
the budget process; prepare a government-wide performance plan that presents performance goals on a functional basis and includes
performance information for program and policy initiatives in the budget; complete the performance budgeting pilot projects;
and, ensure that agency program performance reports are coordinated with the agency accountability reports prepared under
the Government Management Reform Act.
Other Information:
Relationship to Annual Performance Goals: Prospective measures include: the extent that performance information was available
to be used in making budget decisions; the extent that the government-wide performance plan presentation is consistent with
the format and content specification in the objective; the meeting of milestone dates for designating performance budget pilot
projects, preparing the required alternative presentation in the President's budget, and transmittal of the OMB report to
Congress; and the issuance of guidance covering preparation and submission of an integrated program performance and accountability
report. Means and Strategies: OMB will use its processes for budget formulation to promote integration of the performance
plans with the budget process. A function-based presentation of performance goals will provide a context for cross-cutting
analyses and presentations. OMB must consult with potential pilot project agencies to identify candidate pilots, and develop
adequate selection criteria that will allow pilots to be designated and proceed. The evolving relationship of the program
performance and accountability reports will be discussed with the agencies and Congress. External Factors: None identified.
