The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), the evaluation arm of Congress, is studying the
use of performance information in the federal government as part of a Congressional request. In
addition, the requesters asked GAO to assess the impact of required reporting of performance
information through the Office of Management and Budget's Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART). As
part of this study, we are surveying a random, nationwide sample of mid- and upper-level federal
employees in the 24 agencies covered by the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990. This questionnaire
is designed to obtain information on your experiences and perceptions with regard to performance
management issues and related challenges.
This survey is a followup to similar surveys that we administered in 1996, 1999, and 2003. As with
the previous surveys, GAO will take steps to ensure the privacy of your responses. Responses
will not be reported by GAO in any way that would allow an individual respondent to be identified.
Most of the questions in this questionnaire can be answered by checking boxes or filling in
blanks. The questionnaire should take no more than 20-25 minutes to complete.
We urge you to complete this questionnaire. We cannot develop meaningful information without
your frank and honest answers. Thank you very much for your time.
