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, but some of the program's efforts, such as risk assesements and modeling, are not coordinated with those of other Department of Homeland Security offices or state and local offices.
  • The program has not demonstrated its accomplishments through performance measurement. The program has yet to provide specific annual and long-term performance measures and needs to incorporate external evaluations into the business process.
  • While the program has strong financial management practices, tying budget requests to performance goals would help strengthen these practices and make resource needs transparent.

Improvement Plan

About Improvement Plans

We are taking the following actions to improve the performance of the program:

  • Focusing resources and managerial attention to activities that do not duplicate federal or state and local efforts.
  • Establishing annual and long-term performance goals to track progress and ensure activities are coordinated towards developing future capabilities.
  • Implementing independent performance evaluations and deploy an interim method of reporting budget-performance integration that gives insight into programmatic performance.
