GAO Fiscal Year 2018 Performance Plan

Abstract

The Government Accountability Office (GAO) is the audit, evaluation, and investigative arm of Congress. It exists to support Congress in meeting its constitutional responsibilities, and to improve the performance and accountability of the federal government for the benefit of the American people. As a legislative branch agency, we are exempt from many laws that apply to executive branch agencies. However, we generally hold ourselves to the requirements of many of these laws, including the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), as amended. GPRA requires that each agency prepare an annual "performance plan covering each program activity set forth in the budget of such agency." This section of GAOs fiscal year 2018 budget request constitutes our performance plan.
