Met - The financial benefits reported for this goal in fiscal 2009 totaled $18.5 billion, exceeding our target of $15.9 billion
by over $2.6 billion. These efforts resulted in increased tax collections based on our reviews of agencies’ processes to collect
nontax and criminal debts, cost reductions in the 2010 Census, and a reduction in improper federal payments governmentwide.
We describe these and other accomplishments in the goal 3 section of appendix 1. We significantly exceeded the financial benefits
target we set for this goal in fiscal year 2009 because we documented several unanticipated, large-dollar accomplishments.
The federal government realized these financial benefits as a result of our work that examined, among other issues, improvements
in the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s disaster cost estimates and budget reductions involving DOD’s management of contract
services. The executive branch’s current efforts to implement the recommendations we made in our work under this goal indicate
that financial benefits related to this goal are likely to be in line with our 4-year average. Consequently, we set the target
for financial benefits at $14.8 billion for fiscal 2010, which is the same as the target we reported in our fiscal year 2010
performance plan.
