Abstract:
The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH) is seeking OMB approval on a new information collection, the OASH Standard Periodic Performance Project Report (PPR) for Grants and Cooperative Agreements (hereafter the OASH PPR). The purpose of this data collection is to gather quantitative and qualitative information common to the assessment of recipient performance on individual grants and cooperative agreements (collectively, grants) managed in OASH. OASH will collect common data elements measuring the performance of each recipient against the approved grant project plan, including progress toward goals and outcomes as required by 45 C.F.R. 75.342(b)(2). OASH oversees a broad range of grant programs within the Office of the Secretary (OS), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The current active OASH programs with discretionary grants (with assistance listing number) include: Public Awareness Campaigns on Embryo Adoption (93.007); Research on Research Integrity (93.085); Advancing System Improvements for Key Issues in Women’s Health (93.088); Community Programs to Improve Minority Health Grant Programs (93.137); Family Planning Services (93.217); Family Planning Personnel Training (93.260); Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Program (93.297); Public Health Service Evaluation Funds (93.343); Research, Monitoring and Outcomes Definitions for Vaccine Safety (93.344); Minority HIV/AIDS Fund (93.899); Family Planning Service Delivery Improvement Research Grants (93.974); and National Health Promotion (93.990). OASH grants span a wide range of project types, including service, demonstration project, evaluation, research, training, and conference projects. Within each program, the awards are subdivided into cohorts aligned with the notices of funding opportunity under which OASH competed the awards. Currently, there are 47 cohorts of active awards across OASH. In any given year, OASH programs collectively monitor 450-550 active awards with another 200-300 inactive awards awaiting final reports as a prerequisite to closing the grant. The collection is needed to enhance project performance information and simplify reporting under 45 C.F.R. 75.301. Each recipient currently must submit a quarterly Federal Financial Report (FFR or SF-425)(45 C.F.R. 75.341) and a periodic Performance Progress Report (PPR) for each grant (45 C.F.R. 75.342(b)(2). PPR reporting periods in OASH are scheduled quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, depending on the need determined by the program office using a narrative format that can vary by cohort. The PPR schedule is specifically aligned with the quarterly FFRs whenever possible to create a complete snapshot of the project’s progress at the end of the reporting period. The common elements identified in the new collection for OASH programs will standardize the collection of the required information (45 C.F.R. 75.342(b)(2)) including: (1) a comparison of the actual accomplishments to the objectives of the award for the period; (2) the reasons why established goals were not met; and (3) pertinent information, analysis and explanation of cost overruns or high unit costs. The common elements include reporting on publications, including data sets and other work products, to facilitate implementation of OSTP Memorandum Ensuring Free, Immediate, and Equitable Access Federally Funded Research (August 25, 2022). The new information collection will limit the content of the report to those activities taking place during the reporting period (i.e., quarterly, semiannually, or annually). The information collection is structured to facilitate program review across reporting periods. This will allow OASH to identify and improve program outcomes, share lessons learned, and spread the adoption of promising practices among its grant recipients and other HHS awarding agencies. The content of the new collection is structured for web-based data collection under 7 headings.
