The Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART)
was developed to assess and improve program performance so that the
Federal government can achieve better results. A PART review helps
identify a program’s
strengths and weaknesses to inform funding and management decisions
aimed at making the program more effective. The PART therefore looks
at all factors that affect and reflect program performance including
program purpose and design; performance measurement, evaluations, and
strategic planning; program management; and program results. Because
the PART includes a consistent series of analytical questions, it allows
programs to show improvements over time, and allows comparisons between
similar programs.
