Highlights

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) draft strategic plan, focusing on whether: (1) it fulfills the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act and to provide GAO's views on its overall quality; (2) it reflects FEMA's key statutory authorities; (3) it reflects interagency coordination for crosscutting programs, activities, or functions that are similar or complementary to other federal agencies; (4) it addresses major management problems GAO has previously identified; and (5) FEMA had adequate data and information systems to provide sufficiently reliable information for measuring results.
