Abstract: OMB has designated the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as the executing agent of the pilot program. Within HHS, the DATA Act PMO (DAP) has been established under the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Financial Resources (ASFR) in order to implement this pilot program. DAP is requesting a generic clearance for the purpose of conducting tests under the pilot program to obtain qualitative and quantitative data and gain an understanding of the burden imposed on Federal recipients. The Section 5 grants pilot program was launched in May 2015 and will conclude May 2017. The majority of data collection efforts related to the pilot tests will occur during calendar year 2016. This collection of information is necessary to enable DAP to garner feedback in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with the project mission. Recipient outreach efforts will enable DAP to report findings and recommendations to OMB on standardized reporting elements, the elimination of unnecessary duplication, and the reduction of compliance costs for recipients of Federal funds.
