Evidence-Based Policymaking: Survey Results Suggest Increased Use of Performance Information Across the Federal Government : Government Accountability Office (GAO) , November , 2021
From the report: “Performance information can help decision makers understand and improve results at federal agencies. GAO’s 2020 survey of federal managers showed that the reported use of performance information in decision-making generally increased across the federal government compared to prior surveys. For example, on an index that approximates such use with a single score, GAO estimates with 95 percent confidence that the 2020 government-wide result was statistically significantly higher than each prior score since GAO created the index in 2007 (see below).”
