These Performances and Accountability Reports provide key information on Treasury’s progress in meeting
its diverse missions and managing its financial responsibilities.
The Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (the Results Act)
focuses on federal management and accountability with the emphasis on
the outcomes and results that programs are achieving. The Results Act
established a legislative framework for having agencies 1) set strategic
goals; 2) establish annual goals and measure performance; and 3) report
on the degree to which goals were met.
Department of the Treasury Results Documents
Federal employees want their departments to be as effective as possible, and the American people expect the Government to achieve results. To be results-oriented managers must ask themselves if the programs they administer are achieving the desired result at an acceptable cost. If the answer is “no” or “we don’t know,” they must do something about it, such as clearly define the desired outcomes, determine the causes of unsatisfactory performance, construct plans to remedy any problems, develop aggressive timeframes for taking action, and ensure that actions are implemented. The attached reports directed to Federal employees describes how the Treasury Department is focused on results with the help of the PMA.
