Congressional Oversight
The Partnership creates resources, tools and communities to help Congress identify what is working in our government, identify problems, find solutions, and hold agencies and their leaders accountable. Explore our Oversight Snapshots and research below for more information.
Our agency performance dashboard offers a critical snapshot of the operations of 24 major federal agencies. Featured topics include personnel numbers and demographics, employee engagement scores, information technology maturity and more. Providing real-time updates on the organizational health of our government, the dashboard offers Congress and other federal stakeholders the data and resources to hold agencies accountable and support their growth, success and improvement.
