What the Sourcebook is not is a collection of rigid rules or an Agency directive. It is a resource, not a requirement. While some of the primary sources discussed in this web site are mandatory, this Sourcebook is not intended to be cited as prescribing methods of achieving results.

The Sourcebook is based on managing for results best practices developed by USAID and Development Partners. Throughout the Sourcebook, users have an opportunity to link to appropriate statutes, regulations, USAID policies, directives, and programming documents, such as results-oriented Requests for Applications (RFAs). In addition, there are links to other organizations whose managing for results practices have been reviewed.
