  1. DHHS ACCOUNTABILITY TEMPLATE Procurement Reform Symposium September 24, 2014

  2. DHHS Accountability To ensure that the services we administer: • Provide value and directly benefit Maine people • Are cost effective and use resources efficiently • Have clear, measureable outcomes with concise objectives that align with and support the DHHS and Office Mission and Strategic Priorities

  3. Why this? Why this now? • Insufficient capacity to manage/monitor the volume of grants, contracts, and services in DHHS • Circular logic for funding and applications (we have always done it this way, so it needs to be done this way) • Lack of outcomes and consistent data collection/analysis • Little to no correlation between program objectives, distribution of funding and subsequent outcomes

  4. Accountability Template Intentions • Enhance clarity of program objectives and intended outcomes • Ensure that work aligns with Department strategic goals • Streamline the multiple, overlapping processes we employ to get things done • Reduce our own administrative burdens • Provide a management tool to monitor progress • Assure confidence that we are spending public funds appropriately and effectively • MAXIMIZE VALUE

  5. Program Questions • Why • What • When • How much • Who • What difference does it make? • Goals • Objectives • Activities • Targets • Budgets

  6. Aligning Costs to Objectives Does the budget reflect an appropriate and reasonable distribution of resources to achieve our goals?

  7. What the Template Can Do for You • Provide a comprehensive view of your Grant/Program/RFP/Contract • Summarize key objectives to those outside of your field • Support clear, concise explanations • Confirm measurability and alignment of objectives • Set the stage for smooth, swift, spectacular RFPs and Contracts
