Gould,

While the 2004 Annual Performance Plan provides a brief overview of the
objectives and performance results for years past, it does not show the
details on prior years objectives and the actions the SSS were going to take
to help them achieve their goals.

By looking at the objectives and results from 1999 to present, it appears
that the SSS has followed conventional management objectives of trying to
set annual goals that would improve the performance of the organization each
year.

The 5 year objectives for the FY 2001 - 2006 were probably developed before
Bush was elected. The previous 5 year plan would have expired by FY 2000
( Sept. 2000) and a new plan would have been approved by the SSS
administration in the 5th year of the previous 5 yr plan. As someone who
has worked on 5 yr. agendas for a major company, the new 5 yr. plan would
probably be started at least a year before you the current plan expires.

Also the person who was responsible for the current 5 yr plan was appointed
by Bill Clinton in 1994.

Gil Coronado (9)
October 7, 1994 - May 23, 2001
Appointed by President Bill Clinton

It is interesting to note the 1999 Report to Congress highlighted the fact
that Gil Coronado felt the current budget was impacting on the ability to
perform their job.

Gould,
I could not find a copy of the Annual Performance Plan for any year except
2004. Can you provide me a link to review the Annual Performance Plan for
1998 - 2003?

Read it carefully. Each category has subcategories reviewing any similar
goals
from 1999-2003.
