Project: Transformation Accountability
Reporting System—(OMB No. 0930–
0285)—Revision
The Transformation Accountability
(TRAC) Reporting System is a real-time,
performance management system that
captures information on the substance
abuse treatment and mental health
services delivered in the United States.
A wide range of client and program
information is captured through TRAC
for approximately 700 grantees. This
request includes an extension of the
currently approved data collection
effort.
This information collection will allow
SAMHSA to continue to meet the
Government Performance and Results
Act (GPRA) of 1993 reporting
requirements that quantify the effects
and accomplishments of its programs,
which are consistent with OMB
guidance. In order to carry out section
1105(a)(29) of GPRA, SAMHSA is
required to prepare a performance plan
for its major programs of activity. This
plan must:
• Establish performance goals to
define the level of performance to be
achieved by a program activity;
• Express such goals in an objective,
quantifiable, and measurable form;
• Briefly describe the operational
processes, skills and technology, and
the human, capital, information, or
other resources required to meet the
performance goals;
• Establish performance indicators to
be used in measuring or assessing the
relevant outputs, service levels, and
outcomes of each program activity;
• Provide a basis for comparing actual
program results with the established
performance goals; and
• Describe the means to be used to
verify and validate measured values.
In addition, this data collection
supports the GPRA Modernization Act
of 2010 which requires overall
organization management to improve
agency performance and achieve the
mission and goals of the agency through
the use of strategic and performance
planning, measurement, analysis,
regular assessment of progress, and use
of performance information to improve
the results achieved. Specifically, this
data collection will allow CMHS to have
the capacity to report on a consistent set
of performance measures across its
various grant programs that conduct
each of these activities. SAMHSA’s
legislative mandate is to increase access
to high quality substance abuse and
mental health prevention and treatment
services and to improve outcomes. Its
mission is to improve the quality and
availability of treatment and prevention
services for substance abuse and mental
illness. To support this mission, the
Agency’s overarching goals are:
• Accountability—Establish systems
to ensure program performance
measurement and accountability
• Capacity—Build, maintain, and
enhance mental health and substance
abuse infrastructure and capacity
• Effectiveness—Enable all
communities and providers to deliver
effective services
Each of these key goals complements
SAMHSA’s legislative mandate. All of
SAMHSA’s programs and activities are
geared toward the achievement of these
goals and performance monitoring is a
collaborative and cooperative aspect of
this process. SAMHSA will strive to
coordinate the development of these
goals with other ongoing performance
measurement development activities.

Project: Services Accountability

The Services Accountability

that captures information on the
substance abuse treatment and mental
health services delivered in the United
States. A wide range of client and
program information is captured
through SAIS for approximately 650
grantees. Continued approval of this
information collection will allow
SAMHSA to continue to meet
Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993 (GPRA) reporting
requirements that quantify the effects
and accomplishments of its
discretionary grant programs which are
consistent with OMB guidance.
Based on current funding and
planned fiscal year 2015 notice of
funding announcements (NOFA), the
CSAT programs that will use these
measures in fiscal years 2015 through
2017 include: Access to Recovery 3
(ATR3); Adult Treatment Court
Collaboratives (ATCC); Enhancing Adult
Drug Court Services, Coordination and
Treatment (EADCS); Offender Reentry

of Homeless Individuals—Services in
Supportive Housing (GBHI). Grantees in
the Adult Treatment Court Collaborative
program (ATCC) will also provide
program-level data using the CSAT
Aggregate Instrument
SAMHSA and its Centers will use the
data for annual reporting required by
GPRA and for NOMs comparing
baseline with discharge and follow-up
data. GPRA requires that SAMHSA’s
report for each fiscal year include actual
results of performance monitoring for
the three preceding fiscal years. The
additional information collected
through this process will allow
SAMHSA to report on the results of
these performance outcomes as well as
be consistent with the specific
performance domains that SAMHSA is
implementing as the NOMs, to assess
the accountability and performance of
its discretionary and formula grant
programs.
Note that there are no changes to the
instrument from the previous OMB
submission.
