Abstract:
The Non-Hiring Progress Report (NHPR) solicits information about COPS granteesÂ’ progress toward implementation of their COPS Non-Hiring grants and their community policing activities. To help manage the monitoring of grants, the COPS Office must obtain updated information from grantees at regular intervals. The new NHPR was part of a business process improvement effort aimed at minimizing the reporting burden on COPS grantees by streamlining the collection of progress report information into one annual report (or quarterly reports as required for community policing development grantees. Once OMB approves this report and it is developed online (online development completion expected January, 2008), the COPS Office plans to eliminate the following progress reports that have been in use: Training and Technical Assistance Semi-Annual Status Report (1103-0043); Mental Health and Community Safety Initiative Equipment and Training Progress Report (1103-0078); Tribal Resources Grant Program Equipment/Training Progress Report (1103-0087); Methamphetamine Project Final Update Report (1103-0091); and the Methamphetamine Project, Status Update Report (SUR) (1103-0092). In addition, the Annual Report to Congress-Expired COPS Awards Exceeding $5 million (1103-0099) will be modified to include only hiring grants.

Short Statement:
As a grant-making agency, the COPS Office is charged with monitoring each program, project or activity it funds. The Non-Hiring Progress Report will be an important instrument in the COPS Office's grant management and monitoring plan, and will be used to measure our granteesÂ’ progress in grant implementation and to track the community policing activities of grant recipients. The Non-Hiring Progress Report solicits information about the granteesÂ’ progress toward implementation of their COPS Non-Hiring grants and their community policing activities. To help manage the monitoring of grants, the COPS Office must obtain updated information from grantees at regular intervals. Progress reports help to determine the status of implementation of community policing and purchases of equipment, technology, training, and other items awarded under COPS non-hiring grants. The Grant Monitoring Division uses the information collected for pre-site visit preparation and the Grants Administration Division uses the information to further enhance the technical assistance and customer service provided to grantees. The Program, Policy Support and Evaluation Division also uses this information for evaluation of the programs funded by the COPS Office as well as the development of future programs.
