Grant Investment Strategy
Purpose: The intent of this worksheet is to provide an overview of the state/territory's preparedness investment strategy. It includes separate sections to explain the most recent Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA)/Stakeholder Preparedness Review (SPR) results; significant risks and capability gaps that currently exist based on THIRA/SPR outputs and other information sources; resulting preparedness priorities; the goals associated with each priority area; and the anticipated impact of the proposed EMPG Program-funded investments relative to the priorities, performance goals, and/or core capabilities supported.

Instructions: Briefly respond to each question. For the Priorities and Goals section, identify the 3-5 priorities that were mutually agreed to and approved by the Regional Administrator.

At least one performance goal should be identified for each priority area. Each goal must be: specific; measurable; achievable within the period of performance; relevant to the priority area; and have a target date for completion (i.e. SMART goal). It should describe how achieving each goal or objective will impact the priority area it supports by the end of the period of performance.

Grant Activities Outline
Purpose: The Grant Activities Outline (GAO) is used to capture the proposed EMPG Program-funded projects and link them to the identified priorities, performance goals, and gaps or needs. Coupled with the Implementation Schedule and EMPG Summary Tab, the GAO supports identification and tracking of EMPG Program-funded project outcomes, which will enable better understanding of the impacts of those investments relative to the performance goals and the associated core capabilities. Per the Preparedness Grants Manual, each goal must include an estimate quantifying the extent to which the supporting investments will close capability gaps. The worksheet includes sections that allow the applicant to identify the performance goals that are supported by each project and the milestones that are critical to accomplishing each goal. Additional guidance on performance goals and milestones, including specific examples of each, are provided below. The worksheet also requires the applicant to explain the objective and anticipated impact of each project relative to the associated priorities, goals, and related core capabilities. The "Project Objective" should explain what the project will accomplish; specifically, how the project will address the identified gap or need and how it supports one or more of the identified Performance Goals. The "Anticipated Project Impact" should explain the expected project outcome relative to the associated priorities and performance goals. The impact statement should include a quantitative estimate of the degree to which the project will contribute to achieving the identified performance goal (see hierarchy example below). All EMPG Program-funded investments must be accounted for in the GAO. However, recognizing that some sustainment activities, such as funding of emergency manager salaries, may not align to a specific priority or performance goal, applicants are not required to identify priorities and performance goals for such investments. However, all other portions of the GAO must be completed as a means to justify the applicable sustainment costs.

States and territories are required to identify whether and how each project included in their EMPG Program Work Plan addresses the impacts associated with extreme weather. The GAO includes questions for applicants to select "yes" or "no" to the extreme weather question (per project). Continuing for FY 2025, it is a requirement that at least 87.5% of all projects that include Planning, Training, and/or Exercise deliverables align with closing capability gaps identified and documented in the state/territory’s most recent THIRA/SPR submission and other relevant information sources.

Effective completion of the GAO requires an understanding of the established planning hierarchy. Priorities are at the top of the hierarchy, followed by performance goals that define a clear outcome or end-state and provide the basis for addressing each priority. Based on the identified performance goals, project proposals are identified. High-priority capability gaps or needs identified through the THIRA/SPR process and other assessments are also used to inform project selection and to identify specific project objectives. Project objectives, and accompanying impact statements, should complement the performance goals by including similar outcome-focused metrics, as explained above. Lastly, project activities are identified. Project activities are key components and/or milestones that are critical to successful completion of the project. An example of this hierarchy is provided below:

Instructions: The template allows entering up to 80 projects. Ensure that the number assigned to the project title is entered consistently throughout the Template to enable the "auto-populate" features used throughout this spreadsheet. Each project must be given in a name in the "Project Name" space in order for it to be tracked across the template. Enter the requested information or select a choice from the drop-down menu as applicable to your award.

Performance Goals
TermDefinition/Guidance
Performance GoalFrom 2 C.F.R.: Performance goal means a target level of performance expressed as a tangible, measurable objective, against which actual achievement can be compared, including a goal expressed as a quantitative standard, value, or rate. In some instances (e.g., discretionary research awards), this may be limited to the requirement to submit technical performance reports (to be evaluated in accordance with agency policy).

Each goal must be: specific; measurable; achievable within the period of performance; relevant to the priority area; and have a target date for completion (i.e. SMART goals). Each goal must include an estimate quantifying the extent to which the supporting investments will close capability gaps.

The standardized targets included in the Core Capability Development Sheets should be used for developing performance goals, as these standardized targets meet all of the SMART goal requirements. The standardized targets also serve as the basis for setting preparedness goals, identifying capability gaps and approaches for closing those gaps, and tracking efforts to build and sustain capability gaps each year in the state/territory's THIRA/SPR. By using the same goals as those identified in the THIRA/SPR, this enables better understanding and tracking of how EMPG Program-funded investments contribute to building and sustaining capabilities each year, thus yielding a better understanding of investment outcomes and impacts.

Core Capability MetricsCurrent capability levels associated with the capabilities identified in the performance goals; they provide the baseline for measuring project effectiveness.
MilestonesMilestones will identify key project activities and other deliverables or outputs that are critical to accomplishing the identified performance goal and can be tracked to demonstrate progress toward achieving the goal.

Detailed Budget - Excluding M&A
This page allows you track expenditures by line item (excluding costs associated with M&A). Please identify the various aspects of each line item as requested. For Personnel and Fringe costs, applicants may use columns D, E, & F to assist in the calculations of how much to charge to the grant based on the percentage of time a certain employee works on the EMPG Program. Entering a Project Number (from the GAO) in column L will tie the line item to an existing EMPG Program project. Only one project may be selected. Columns Q - AE allow the applicant to view the line item alongside the information reported from the project dropdown menus.

Each line item is flexible to allow applicants to capture budget details in a manner that is useful for their agency. All cost-sharing/match should be recorded in the detailed budget in the "Non-Federal Share" (Column H) and the type of match should be selected under "Match Type" (Column J). The source of the match may be typed into "Match Source" (Column K). Indirect costs do not require a non-federal match portion to be associated with the line item. This page provides the data that will calculate into the EMPG Program Summary tab. It is important that all relevant costs and match are captured. The dollar amounts associated with the EMPG Program must be entered in "Federal Amount" and "Non-Federal Amount" (Columns G & H). The total cost of the line item will be automatically populated in "Total Cost" (Column I). The sum of line items entered in the Detailed Budget will be added by cost category and reflected in the Budget Narrative.

Budget Narrative - Excluding M&A
The purpose of the Budget Narrative is to 1) Justify the need for each line item and justify the cost estimates; 2) Explain how costs relate to the programmatic goals of the project(s); and 3) Supplement other budget information provided on the Detailed Budget. On this page, please list each item from your Detailed Budget-Excl. M&A worksheet and list the costs herein the same order in which they are listed on the budget spreadsheet.
