Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993
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 Treasury Results Document - August 2004Federal
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 report
directed
to Federal employees describes how the Treasury Department is focused
on results with the help of the PMA
Treasury Strategic Plan
The Treasury Strategic Plan for fiscal years 2003-2008 is a corporate level plan for the Department. The individual Bureau Strategic Plans provide the operational framework for achieving the goals and objectives contained in the corporate plan. Collectively, the corporate plan and the more detailed bureau strategic plans provide a description of what the Department intends to accomplish over the next five years and how we intend to accomplish it. Individual bureau plans are accessible by clicking on the hyperlinks found in the Appendices on page B1.

This plan contains annual performance goals to gauge the agency's progress
towards meeting its longer term strategic goals and defines the performance
measures and targets the agency will use to assess its progress.
