Abstract:
USTDA and contractors will collect information from various stakeholders on USTDA-funded activities regarding development impact and/or commercial objectives as well as evaluate success regarding GPRA objectives. This information collection enables USTDA to assess the impacts that its program investments have on U.S. commercial interests and economic development abroad. The goal of this information collection is to gather evidence and stakeholder feedback in order to continually improve program performance and deliver better results to U.S. taxpayers. As a matter of good management practice, such information is necessary to responsibly carry out the Agency’s mission of monitoring current and recently completed activities.

Short Statement:
Over the last three years, USTDA’s Program Evaluation Office has continued to streamline and improve its evaluation process in order to conduct more targeted, tailored outreach to gather specific information from participants. The Office has focused its attention on higher quality assessments, using informed outreach strategies that minimize the burden on respondents. This has yielded a reduction in the number of people contacted per evaluation, as well as a reduction in the number of times each project is evaluated.
