Rating
What This Rating Means |
NOT PERFORMING Results Not Demonstrated
A rating of Results Not Demonstrated (RND) indicates that a program has not been able to develop acceptable performance goals or collect data to determine whether it is performing.
- The program has a clear purpose. However, the program's design must include processes that ensure resources are targeted toward the highest threat, risk, and vulnerability areas.
- Clear and specific long-term and annual goals have been established. However, some outcome measures and baselines are still needed in order to provide information on the programs progress.
- The program has strong financial management practices and standard operating procedures that facilitate effective financial management communications. Development of procedures to measure efficiencies and cost effectiveness would improve upon existing practices.

Improvement Plan
About Improvement Plans |
We are taking the following actions to improve the performance of the program:
- Developing and will publish a targeting methodology that explains how it will focus on the highest threat, risk, and vulnerability areas.
- Developing annual and long-term performance measures that encompass the emerging mission and will develop at least one efficiency measure for the program.
- Developing meaningful quantitative validation of its cost efficiencies by end-Q3 and deploy them in terms of efficiency measures as well.
