Book Description
This volume is designed to help those who receive and administer Federal assistance (FA) to acquire useful performance information. The objective is to provide the recipients with a standard means of communicating their progress and results to the Department of Energy (DOE) so that DOE program managers can determine the effectiveness of Federal programs. The reporting system uses a baseline method of management reporting. Work is divided into discrete units and planned in terms of schedule and costs. The schedule and cost plans prepared at the outset are then adopted as standards for managing the project and reporting on its status to DOE. The following plans and reports are addressed: FA management plan, FA milestone plan, FA intermediate event and milestone log, FA cost plan, FA management summary report, FA program/project status report, financial status report, and technical reports. 17 figures.
