Assess whether IG recommendations are closed or paper-closed (528c46)

Situation

A performance target that was quietly changed mid-year put grant special-condition that the program never implemented in front of performance-management analyst in a reorganization that moves programs across bureaus. This Government / Policy and Grants close is IG recommendations are closed from grant special-condition that the program never implemented, and the live options are IG recommendations are closed, Paper-closed.

Decision

Performance-management analyst in a reorganization that moves programs across bureaus must choose IG recommendations are closed / Paper-closed using grant special-condition that the program never implemented after a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year.

Hypotheses to test

• Grant special-condition that the program never implemented reads as IG recommendations are closed once a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year is lined up to the same Government population.
• Grant special-condition that the program never implemented is closer to Paper-closed after a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year; IG recommendations are closed would over-claim this Policy and Grants extract.
• A dual reading is still live in grant special-condition that the program never implemented for performance-management analyst in a reorganization that moves programs across bureaus.
• Grant special-condition that the program never implemented is missing the fact performance-management analyst needs after a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year; stop this Government close.

Analysis required

• Check notice and appeal timing around a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year.
• Trace the audit trail performance-management analyst would produce for oversight.
• Map eligibility, appropriation, and program rules in grant special-condition that the program never implemented after a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year.
• For this Government Policy and Grants file, read grant special-condition that the program never implemented against a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year and write the one fact that would move IG recommendations are closed for performance-management analyst.

Recommendation

Choose IG recommendations are closed / Paper-closed on this Government / Policy and Grants packet (grant special-condition that the program never implemented after a performance target that was quietly changed mid-year). The follow-on Policy and Grants action is what performance-management analyst does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
