Common use of Local Performance Assessment Clause in Contracts

Local Performance Assessment. Grantees must periodically review the performance data they report to SAMHSA (as required above), assess their progress, and use this information to improve management of their grant projects. The assessment should be designed to help you determine whether you are achieving the goals, objectives, and outcomes you intend to achieve and whether adjustments need to be made to your project. Performance assessments also should be used to determine whether your project is having/will have the intended impact on behavioral health disparities. You will be required to report on your progress achieved, barriers encountered, and efforts to overcome these barriers in a performance assessment report to be submitted at least annually. At a minimum, your performance assessment should include the required performance measures identified above. You may also consider outcome and process questions, such as the following: What was the effect of intervention on key outcome goals? What program/contextual/cultural/linguistic factors were associated with outcomes? What individual factors were associated with outcomes, including race/ethnicity/sexual identity (sexual orientation/gender identity)? How durable were the effects? How closely did implementation match the plan? What types of changes were made to the originally proposed plan? What types of changes were made to address behavioral health disparities, including the use of National CLAS Standards? What led to the changes in the original plan? What effect did the changes have on the planned intervention and performance assessment? Who provided (program staff) what services (modality, type, intensity, duration), to whom (individual characteristics), in what context (system, community), and at what cost (facilities, personnel, dollars)?
