What is the IMPACT Tool?

The Indicators* Measurements* Performance* Achievements* Challenges* Technical Assistance Tool (IMPACT tool) is a web-based tool that all OVW grantees and subgrantees will use to prepare their performance data for submission to OVW, beginning with the July – December 2024 (JD 2024) reporting period. It is easy to use and reflects a reduction of about 50% in the volume of data grantees are asked to report. Its purpose is to simplify reporting and alleviate burden on grantees while generating better, timely, and more accurate information on how grantees use their funds.
