Fiscal Report of the United States 12

Charge Card Framing the Issue and Progress to Date 13  In FY 2015, Federal agencies used government charge cards to spend $28.4 B; cards are an important and efficient financial tool  The Government Charge Card Abuse Prevention Act of 2012, reinforced Administration efforts to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse of Government- wide charge card programs  OMB Memorandum-M established guidance and reporting requirements for agencies and Inspectors General (IGs) to partner on efforts to improve card management and oversight  Over two years, agencies have implemented 659 of 767 (86%) IG recommendations  Currently, only 1% misuse across all purchase card holders– though any misuse is too high  Over 1.2 million CHIP and PIN Cards issued as part of Buy Secure initiative Program Overview

Real Property: Framing the Issue Over 1.1 million assets globally – Including building, land, and structures – with these assets managed across 24 major departments, each with its unique asset management system Operating costs - Exceeds $33 billion annually, including over $9 billion on costs related to leased property, and is growing Opportunities for potential consolidation – Over 10,000 “excess” or “underutilized” assets worldwide (including a subset of 7,500 domestic, non-military assets) identified in 2013 Field Offices – About 19,000 field offices (outside DC) comprising 380 million sq ft of space; one example is the Farm Services Administration with about 2,000 offices nationally Example: Farm Services Administration Field Office Footprint 14

18 Discussion Topics DATA Act OverviewSection 5 Grants PilotData Centric VisionOpportunities for Involvement Purpose & Discussion Topics

19 DATA Act Overview In May 2014, Public Law Digital Accountability and Transparency Act of 2014 (DATA Act) was signed into law with the purpose to establish government- wide financial data standards and increase the availability, accuracy, and usefulness of federal spending information. Establish Government-Wide Data Standards Simplify Reporting Improve Quality of Data

The goal of the Pilot is to implement Section 5 of the Digital Accountability and Transparency Act (DATA Act) of 2014, Pub. L. No , which requires the Federal Government to, “ establish a pilot program with the participation of appropriate Federal agencies to facilitate the development of recommendations for – 20 Section 5 Pilot Requirements (A) standardized reporting elements across the Federal government (§5(b)(1)(A)); (B) the elimination of unnecessary duplication in financial reporting (§5(b)(1)(B)); (C) the reduction of compliance costs for recipients of Federal awards (§5(b)(1)(C)).” The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has engaged HHS to serve as the executing agent for the Section 5 Grants Pilot.

21 Section 5 Legislative Timeline ActivityDeadline Section 5: Establish Pilot program that will generate recommendations to standardize reporting, eliminate duplication and unnecessary reports, and reduce compliance costs Establish 1 year after enactment Complete within 2 years after pilot established May 2015 – May 2017 Section 5: Report on results of pilot 90 days after pilot completion August 2017 Section 5: Guidance to agencies on how data standards can reduce burden and simplify reporting requirements/eliminate duplication 1 year after Report August 2018

22 Section 5 Grants Pilot – Approach & Framework Section 5 Pilot Goals Standardize reporting elements. Eliminate unnecessary duplication. Reduce compliance costs for Federal award recipients. Section 5 Grants Pilot Framework takes a holistic approach to meeting the Section 5 Pilot Goals by: Collecting feedback through the National Dialogue ( Analyzing data centric forms. Testing models like the CDER Library, Consolidated FFR, Single Audit, NOA – POC, Learn Grants, and other models as appropriate. Each component of the Framework interacts with and informs the others. Time frames associated with each test model will align with legislative requirements to execute the Pilot by May 2017, and support OMB’s report due to Congress by August Section 5 Grants Pilot Framework

23 HHS has conducted a Town Hall, a series of Subject Matter Expert (SME) meetings, and a Pretest Meeting to inform the development of the Section 5 Grants Pilot test models. Groups represented included: FDP, AGA, NGMA, DTC, ACT-IAC, NCURA Section 5 Grants Pilot Timeline Update Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) Review* OMB Concurs on Test Models Federal Register Notice Published* Section 5 Grants Pilot Town Hall Begin Collection of Pilot Data Submit Report to Congress September 23 November 2 November 20 May 2016 May 2017 August 2017 November 2 Early Spring Select Pilot Participants Design Effectiveness Pretest Meeting January 2016 Pilot Data Collection Ends Pilot Activities Begin May 2015 Present time

24 Designed to be a federal-wide, online repository for grants-specific data standards, definitions, and context. Test 1: Provide grantees with data element definitions to identify potential changes in accuracy and speed of grant lifecycle form completion. Test 2: Identify form duplication and update/reduce forms to reduce grantee burden. A test model that will allow grantees to submit the FFR form in one system, rather than in multiple entry systems. Common Data Element Repository (CDER) Library A financial statement audit of an organization’s federal funds. A document containing information a grant recipient needs to perform routine accounting and finance operations. Test: Provide grantees with standardized NOA cover sheet for Federal awards to populate a data collection tool. Identify potential changes in speed of completing the data collection tool with and without the standardized NOA. Consolidated Federal Financial Reporting (FFR) Single Audit An online web portal that provides information for grant recipients to access federal grant lifecycle information. Test: Determine users’ level of understanding on the grants lifecycle after using Learn Grants. Notice of Award – Proof of Concept (NOA – POC) Learn Grants Section 5 Grants Pilot Test Models Test: Provide grantees with draft 2016 expanded Single Audit form (SF-SAC only) and collect participant feedback on a more streamlined approach for SF-SAC/SEFA reporting. Test: Provide grantees with one consolidated process for submitting the FFR to identify potential changes in the time it takes to complete and submit two separate components of the FFR. Focus Group Discussion: Walk participants through the changes to the FFR and allow for questions/feedback. Focus Group Discussion: Present draft expanded Single Audit form and allow participants to comment upon the SF-SAC changes in a live setting.
