Performance-Based Budgeting
The bar has been raised for federal programs
to tie their goals with the resources they have been allocated.
The initiative of Budget- Performance Integration calls
for federal programs to create outcome oriented goals and
measures and align their allocated resources with those
goals.With the release of the Program Assessment Rating
Tool (PART) in 2002, the administration established the
clear
commitment to performance and accountability for federal
programs. By demanding measurable results, goals and accountability
for resource allocation, the PART integrates the core aims
of budget-performance integration and performance plans.
Acquiring the skills to integrate program goals with justification
of budget estimates will aid in your program’s ability
to define and
manage for results and communicate with program stakeholders
and appropriators.
Key Methodologies Covered
This training will focus on developing performance
goals and measures by applying the Government Management
Logic Model Framework as a template for developing accurate
and succinct performance goals and measures for government
programs. This framework will aid government managers in
the stewardship of the annual and long-term objectives of
the individual program and the organization, and is in compliance
with GPRA performance criteria as well as OMB PART guidance.
