Rating

What This Rating Means

PERFORMING
Effective

This is the highest rating a program can achieve. Programs rated Effective set ambitious goals, achieve results, are well-managed and improve efficiency.
  • The program has achieved success in meeting nonproliferation goals. The 2003 report for the Fund (available on the program website) details 179 completed projects that contributed to achievement of nonproliferation and disarmament goals. An interagency review process led by the Department of State guides decisions on the choice of projects to be pursued each year.
  • Each selected project has specific performance measures that clearly support the purposes of the program. The program uses most funding for one-time projects that represent a unique opportunity to meet nonproliferation objectives. Longer-term programs are generally funded in other assistance accounts.
  • The Nonproliferation and Disarmament Fund tightly monitors ongoing projects, often using on-site staff to provide day-to-day supervision of projects. Fund staff also verifies that work is performed consistent with the approved cost, schedule, and performance goals.
