What This Rating Means

PERFORMING
Effective

This is the highest rating a program can achieve. Programs rated Effective set ambitious goals, achieve results, are well-managed and improve efficiency.
  • The program conducts advance visits to determine the nature and scope of the local threat environment. This allows for the effective and efficient allocation of appropriate resource levels for protectee visits.
  • The program provides agency and partner law enforcement personnel with timely and relevant information needed to carry out protective operations, which contributed to the Secret Service's achievement of its target of 100% safe arrival and departure of protectees (to and from all travel destinations).
  • Program resources are efficiently managed and directed to respond to factors such as increasing numbers of designated protectees, protectee travel frequency and destinations, National Special Security Event venues, variance in national threat levels, and crisis management scenarios.
