The necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for 
the proper performance of the agency's functions; (2) the accuracy of 
the estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 
clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology to minimize the information collection burden.
    Title of Information Collection: Performance and Evaluation 
Measurement Systems (PEMS).
    Type of Collection: New Data Collection.
    OMB No.: 0990-New.
    Abstract: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) 
Office of Minority Health (OMH) is requesting OMB approval for PEMS. 
The proposed information collection activity will allow OMH to collect 
grant management and performance data and disparity impact information 
for all OMH-funded projects. The clearance is needed to support data 
collection using Grant Solutions, a system that enables OMH to comply 
with Federal reporting requirements and monitor and evaluate 
performance by enabling the efficient collection of performance-
oriented data tied to OMH-wide performance reporting needs. The ability 
to monitor and evaluate performance in this manner, and to work towards 
continuous program improvement are basic functions that OMH must be 
able to accomplish to carry out its mandate with the most effective and 
appropriate use of resources.
