Many programs at EPA and across the federal government are designed to foster stewardship and innovation. EPA sponsored a review of how federal agencies measure the performance results of programs engaged in stewardship and innovation. The goal of this research was to provide insights that will help EPA stewardship and innovation programs understand how they can better measure and evaluate their performance. This research draws on best practices of programs from a variety of federal agencies, including EPA, that have undergone one or more Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART) reviews conducted by the Office of Management and Budget. These documents below contain the results of the research effort:
