The Project HERO program management office regularly tracks and monitors cost, quality, safety, vendor performance and other data to ensure that Project HERO is meeting its objectives. This information is gathered, analyzed and reported on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis. The Program Management Office shares its findings with internal and external stakeholders including the Project HERO Governing Board, directors of participating Project HERO VISNs, senior VA and VHA leadership, veteran services organizations, academic affiliates and labor unions.
VA continues to engage with veteran services organizations, academic affiliates, industry, and other federal agencies in the course of implementing Project HERO. These partnerships bring fresh ideas and leading-edge strategies, tools, and capabilities to help VA meet Project HERO's objectives. Together, VA and its partners collaborate to provide better care for all veterans.
