What if a Federal agency and the U.S. Office of Management and Budget disagree about the findings of an assessment?
Federal agencies and the U.S. Office of Management and Budget collaborate extensively to complete assessments and rely on evidence to support their conclusions. After working with the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to come up with the right answers to questions, Federal agencies have the opportunity to formally appeal the answers with which they still disagree. In the appeals process, agency appeals are considered and adjudicated by a five-person panel comprised of members of the President’s Management Council, a group of deputy secretaries responsible for management issues at their respective agencies. For more detailed information on the appeals process, please read the 2008 PART appeals guidance that is available: 2008 PART Appeals Process Guidance.
