d) In order to effectively measure the performance of its awardees, each State awarding agency shall:

1) Require its awardees to submit a Periodic Performance Report (PPR) in the format prescribed by GATU and available through the GATA Resource Library at www.grants.illinois.gov. The frequency of PPR reporting shall be specified in the executed Grant Agreement and no less frequent than annually nor more frequent than quarterly except in unusual circumstances as stated in the Uniform Grant Agreement. Best practice would be quarterly reporting.

2) Utilize the PPR to require its awardees to relate financial data to performance accomplishments of the award and, when applicable, require awardees to provide cost information to demonstrate cost-effective practices. The awardee's performance should be measured in a way that will help the State agency to improve program outcomes, share lessons learned, and spread the adoption of promising practices; and

3) Provide awardees with clear performance goals, indicators, and milestones through the Grant Agreement and shall establish performance reporting frequency and content to not only allow the State agency to understand the awardee's progress, but also to facilitate identification of promising practices among awardees and build the evidence upon which the State agency's program and performance decisions are made.

e) Each State awarding agency shall enhance its processes to monitor and address noncompliance with reporting requirements and with program performance standards. When applicable, the process may include a corrective action plan. The monitoring process shall include a plan for tracking and documenting performance-based contracting decisions.
