The Office of Grants Management (OGM),
in the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is proposing
the continued collection of program performance data for ACF’s
discretionary grantees. In 2016, OGM developed a form to collect
this data based on the basic template of the OMB-approved reporting
format of the Program Performance Report. OGM now seeks to renew
the ACF-OGM-SF-PPR-B for continued use by ACF with no changes to
the form. OGM will use this data to determine if grantees are
proceeding in a satisfactory manner in meeting the approved goals
and objectives of the project, and if funding should be continued
for another budget period. The requirement for grantees to report
on performance is OMB grants policy. Specific citations are
contained in: (1) 2 CFR 215 Uniform Administrative Requirements,
cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards and (2)
45 CFR 75, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles,
and Audit Requirements for Department of Health and Human Services
Awards.
ACF expects an increased number
of grantees who will be required to submit this form over then next
three years.
