8. Provide a brief summary and justification for this investment, including a brief description of how this closes in part or in whole an identified agency performance gap.

The ACF Grants Center of Excellence (COE) operates GrantSolutions.gov / Grants Administration, Tracking and Evaluation System (GrantsSolutions.gov/GATES). GrantSolutions.gov/GATES is one of two component systems of the Department's Enterprise-wide Grants Management System. The GrantSolutions.gov/GATES system enables ACF to function as a full-fledged grants processing organization capable of supporting its expanded customer base of HHS service grant-making OPDIVs; while the NIH IMPAC II system supports research grants. This investment will provide for system enhancements and service delivery improvements as the various grants management and reporting processes currently in use at HHS OPDIVS continue to be unified, streamlined and standardized across the Department. This initiative is pursuant to the Secretary's "One HHS" goal, and is consistent with the HHS Strategic Plan goal to achieve excellence in management practices, and enhances the use of information technology in service delivery and record keeping by improving the accessibility and functionality of the technology. The COE is evolving as a Grants Management Line of Business (GMLoB) consortia provider. Functionally, GrantSolutions.gov/GATES is used by grants officers and specialists to manage their grant programs and process grant applications from receipt through award. Financial information is exchanged electronically with the HHS UFMS enterprise financial system, and standards are being developed to interface with any financial accounting system. GrantSolutions.gov/GATES is undergoing some modernization effort by moving from client-server to web based architecture, along with redesigning its data architecture, to enable GrantSolutions.gov/GATES to support the E-Gov initiatives in the President's Management Agenda. This investment positions the COE to support other PMA strategies e.g. Improved Financial Performance, Budget and Performance Integration, and Strategic Management of Human Capital. ACF will follow the agency's capital programming process and related techniques to determine GrantSolutions.gov/GATES' effectiveness in supporting the HHS and ACF mission and strategic goals, and to identify and implement needed improvements. Funding for the mixed life-cycle of this project encompasses operations and maintenance of the legacy GATES system, the migration of HHS OPDIVs to GrantSolutions.gov/GATES, and other improvements in support of the GMLoB, and other PMA initiatives.

PERFORMANCE

---

In order to successfully address this area of the exhibit 300, performance goals must be provided for the agency and be linked to the annual performance plan. The investment must discuss the agency's mission and strategic goals, and performance measures (indicators) must be provided. These goals need to map to the gap in the agency's strategic goals and objectives this investment is designed to fill. They are the internal and external performance benefits this investment is expected to deliver to the agency (e.g., improve efficiency by 60 percent, increase citizen participation by 300 percent a year to achieve an overall citizen participation rate of 75 percent by FY 2xxx, etc.). The goals must be clearly measurable investment outcomes, and if applicable, investment outputs. They do not include the completion date of the module, milestones, or investment, or general goals, such as, significant, better, improved that do not have a quantitative measure.

Agencies must use the following table to report performance goals and measures for the major investment and use the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Performance Reference Model (PRM). Map all Measurement Indicators to the corresponding Measurement Area and Measurement Grouping identified in the PRM. There should be at least one Measurement Indicator for each of the four different Measurement Areas (for each fiscal year). The PRM is available at www.egov.gov. The table can be extended to include performance measures for years beyond FY 2009.

In order to successfully address this area of the business case and capital asset plan you must ensure the investment is included in the agency's EA and Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) process, and is mapped to and supports the FEA. You must also ensure the business case demonstrates the relationship between the investment and the business, performance, data, services, application, and technology layers of the agency's EA.

1. Is this investment included in your agency's target enterprise architecture?

yes

2. Is this investment included in the agency's EA Transition Strategy?

yes

2.a. If yes, provide the investment name as identified in the Transition Strategy provided in the agency's most recent annual EA Assessment.

ACF Grants Administration Tracking Evaluation System - Grants Center for Excellence

3. Is this investment identified in a completed (contains a target architecture) and approved segment architecture?

yes

3.a. If yes, provide the name of the segment architecture as provided in the agency’s most recent annual EA Assessment.

4. Identify the service components funded by this major IT investment (e.g., knowledge management, content management, customer relationship management, etc.). Provide this information in the format of the following table. For detailed guidance regarding components, please refer to http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/.

Component: Use existing SRM Components or identify as NEW. A NEW component is one not already identified as a service component in the FEA SRM.

Reused Name and UPI: A reused component is one being funded by another investment, but being used by this investment. Rather than answer yes or no, identify the reused service component funded by the other investment and identify the other investment using the Unique Project Identifier (UPI) code from the OMB Ex 300 or Ex 53 submission.

Internal or External Reuse?: Internal reuse is within an agency. For example, one agency within a department is reusing a service component provided by another agency within the same department. External reuse is one agency within a department reusing a service component provided by another agency in another department. A good example of this is an E-Gov initiative service being reused by multiple organizations across the federal government.

Funding Percentage: Please provide the percentage of the BY requested funding amount used for each service component listed in the table. If external, provide the funding level transferred to another agency to pay for the service.
