This is the Performance and Accountability Report of the United States Small Business Administration (SBA) for FY 2003. This SBA Performance and Accountability Report (PAR) is more than just a collection of individual Agency reports bound together under a common cover. For the first time, a serious effort has been made to present these various reports in a manner that offers a more integrated view of the Agencys programmatic performance, financial accountability and managerial effectiveness.The approach taken to achieve this integration is to link the Agencys Strategic Goals and Long-Term Objectives to those items in each of these reports that describe issues relevant to their accomplishment. A critical achievement during FY2003 that made this methodology possible was the creation of a Strategic Plan with a finite number of Strategic Goals and Long-Term Objectives, cascading into specific and measurable Outcomes that define success. Links to the Strategic Plan and other SBAs planning, budgeting and reporting documents can be found in Appendix 5.
