Long Description for the "USAID Strategic Management Process" Diagram
The Agency's performance management planning process includes the long-term Joint State-USAID Strategic Plan (JSP), which sets forth the direction and priorities for both organizations and is updated on a yearly basis in the Joint Performance Plan (JPP). Flowing from the long-term JSP is the Annual Report (AR) prepared at the mission level. At the end of each year, the Agency produces the annual Performance and Accountability Report (PAR) which reports on required performance information and includes the required financial statements. As part of the JSP, USAID designed an Agency Policy Framework to serve as the basis for both organizations' annual budget submissions (ABS) and performance plans at the Agency, Bureau, and Mission levels. At the same time that USAID missions are submitting information in the Annual Report application, Embassies will be working on their FY 2007 Mission Performance Plans. It is therefore important for missions to coordinate closely with State counterparts to ensure consistency in the level of resources requested in the respective plans, as well as in the allocation of resources to strategic goals and objectives.
