Rating

What This Rating Means

PERFORMING
Adequate

This rating describes a program that needs to set more ambitious goals, achieve better results, improve accountability or strengthen its management practices.
  • The program has a clear purpose and addresses a clear and ongoing need, but it has had difficulty demonstrating results because of inadequate measures and inconsistent progress in achieving annual targets.
  • The program is participating in an Office of Pesticide Programs initiative on performance indicators. The program has developed new measures to assess its performance. The program also developed new output efficiency measures that will promote better management and a more direct focus on efficiently achieving outcomes.
  • The program used additional resources for reviewing antimicrobial pesticides and inert ingredients to address the issue of not meeting annual targets and concerns about meeting statutorily-required deadlines.
