  3. Project goals Overall Vision: Link budget, cost and performance information that enables DOI and its Bureaus to practice sound program management • Alignment: Assess current Bureau alignment to DOI strategic plan end outcomes, measures and cost. • Integration: Develop methodology to integrate ABC and performance measurement and identify gaps/overlaps and/or dependencies • Verification: Assess Bureau data validation and verification processes Short-Term Project Goals

  4. Project deliverables Phase 1: Assess Bureau Performance Alignment Phase 2: Develop Integration Methodology Phase 3: Assess Data Validation and Verification Processes Phase 4: Formulate Overall Implementation Strategy

  5. Project approachPhase 1: Alignment Three-Step Process Step 1: Gather Background Materials • Gather pertinent documents that describe current performance mgt structure • Strategic planning documents • Budget justification tables • Other documents (e.g.. PAR, Strategic or Operating Plans) • Analyze the methodology, form and extent of alignment • Review Bureau documentation • Identify linkages to current DOI strategic plan outcomes, measures • Conduct Bureau workshops and/or meetings for validation • Document results Step 2: Conduct Analysis • Synthesize Bureau-level results and recommend action • Target any patterns, outstanding issues and/or anomalies • Identify effective structures, and/or changes to existing plan(s) • Report results Step 3: Synthesize Results

  6. Project approachPhase 2: Integration Three-Step Process • Gather pertinent documents & data to support Budget and Performance Integration • Bureaus performance budget justification table(s) • ABC outputs and strategic Measures • Other Bureau budget data, e.g., current appropriations and fund types Step 1: Gather Background Materials Step 2: Conduct Analysis • Analyze the data, cost and bureau funds • Analyze relationship of ABC to strategic measures and outputs • Identify sample cost and funding streams in use • Review existing integration methodologies • Document results Step 3: Synthesize Results • Synthesize results and develop integration methodology • Identify mechanism and process to link ABC unit costing • Formulate overall integration methodology

  7. Project approachPhase 3: Verification and Validation Three-Step Process • Gather pertinent document to support Performance Data • Verification and Validation • DOI data verification and validation policy/standards • Bureau data verification and validation documentation Step 1: Gather Background Materials Step 2: Conduct Analysis • Analyze Data Verification and Validation Process • Analyze bureau verification and validation process against standards • Conduct workshops/meetings to validate and/or discuss findings • Document results Step 3: Synthesize Results • Synthesize Results and Recommend Process Improvement • Highlight areas for improvement in bureau processes • Develop action plan for remediation and next steps
