Title: Low Income Home Energy
Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Grantee
Needs Assessment.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: This information
collection is a direct response to
recommendations for strengthening
LIHEAP program integrity made by the
Government Accountability Office in
2010 and the LIHEAP Program Integrity
Work Group. The purpose of this data
collection is to gauge the capacity of
LIHEAP grantees to perform two critical
tasks:
1. To implement third-party
verification of household data obtained
during the LIHEAP intake process, in
order to strengthen program integrity by
reducing the risk of making LIHEAP
benefit payments to ineligible
households or in the wrong amount.
These risks arise in large part when
there are errors or fraud in the reporting
of household members’ identity and
income during the LIHEAP intake
process.
2. To collect and report new
performance measures that ACF is
proposing to require of all State LIHEAP
grantees by Fiscal Year 2015.
This needs assessment represents a
maturity model—a process for
determining the existing capabilities of
grantees. Through a web-based tool,
respondents will be asked to indicate
the level of maturity, or sophistication,
of their program across multiple areas of
evaluation. The data collected will be
analyzed to identify strengths and
weaknesses among grantees and
determine opportunities for
improvement. This needs assessment is
designed to identify and organize the
systems, processes and activities that
are critical to each grantee’s LIHEAP
program.
The needs assessment is broken up
into multiple sections. Each section is
focused on a different part of the overall
program, and as such may be best
answered by an individual with
expertise in that specific area of the
program. Burden estimates shown
below represent the total time to
complete all sections by all relevant
parties.
The data that will be obtained through
this needs assessment is a one-time
collection to inform ACF in its
operational decision-making over how
to distribute training and technical
assistance, and other capacity building
resources to its directly-funded LIHEAP
grantees. The data will be for internal
use by ACF and its contractors for this
internal purpose only. Currently, there
is very limited data available on a
national scale to provide program
administrators and stakeholders
information on the impact of LIHEAP
services and the effectiveness of how
the program is administered. The data
that will be collected through this needs
assessment will inform ACF as to how
to help LIHEAP grantees improve the
timeliness and accuracy of their data
collection and reporting which will in
turn provide better feedback to ACF and
national stakeholders about the
program’s performance.
Respondents: The respondents to this
one-time needs assessment will be all 51
State LIHEAP grantees, including the
District of Columbia, and the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
