The AC Performance Reporting System (ACPRS) enables enhanced monitoring and evaluation of grants through standardized collection and storage of relevant award elements, such as quarterly progress reports, workplans, results monitoring plans, grant agreements, financial reports, and other business information related to AC implementers. ACPRS streamlines communication with implementers and allows for rapid identification gaps for specific projects. With the introduction of a results monitoring module within SAMS Domestic in April 2018, NEA/AC will exclusively use SAMS Domestic to track and monitor programmatic and financial performance of awards and phase out ACPRS.
