A. Justification

1. Importance of the Information

The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) of the 

Department of Education (ED) requests clearance of revised Annual and Final Performance 

Reporting (APR) forms to be completed by all NIDRR grantees. The forms included in this 

package are revised versions of those used by grantees in the following 10 programs to submit 

their Annual and Final Performance Reports for Reporting Year 2013 under OMB collection 

number 1820-0675:

 Rehabilitation Research Training Centers (RRTCs)

 Rehabilitation Engineering Research Centers (RERCs)

 Field Initiated Research Projects (FIPs)

 Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training Projects (ARRTs)

 Model Systems (including spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and burn 

centers)

 Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRPs)

 Knowledge Translation (KT) Projects

 ADA National Network Centers (ADAs)

 Small Business Innovation Research Projects (SBIR) grantees (Phase 2 only)

 Research Fellowships Program (RFP)

OMB’s approval of the forms used in Reporting Year 2013 expires September 30, 2013.

Reporting forms for all 10 programs are Web-based; that is, all grantees will complete 

their annual reports via the Internet. Data collected through these forms will be used to:

(a) facilitate program planning and management;

(b) respond to Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) 

requirements; and

(c) respond to the reporting requirements of the Government Performance and Results 

Act (GPRA) of 1993 (P.L. 103-62).

Statutory Requirements for This Data Collection

NIDRR’s Web-based reporting system addresses specific EDGAR requirements that 

must be met by applicants and grantees. EDGAR requirements that apply to NIDRR Grant 

programs include 34 CFR, Parts 75, 77, 79-82, 85-86 and 97.2Specifically, 34 CFR 75.590 

requires grantees to submit an annual performance report or, for the last year of a project, a final

report that evaluates at least annually: (a) the grantee’s progress in achieving the objectives in its 

approved application, (b) the effectiveness of the project in meeting the purposes of the program, 

and (c) the effect of the project on the participants served.

Additionally, GPRA requires all federal agencies to implement performance 

measurement systems that include: (1) a five-year strategic plan, (2) an annual performance plan, 

and (3) an annual performance report. Currently, NIDRR has met these requirements and has 

established performance indicators to meet the reporting requirements. The NIDRR APR System 

currently includes reporting forms for all 10 of NIDRR’s grant programs.

NIDRR’s GPRA plan, as part of ED’s performance reporting requirements, must collect 

information to meet the following mandates: (a) implementation of a comprehensive plan that 

includes goals and objectives; (b) measurement of the program’s progress in meeting its 

objectives; and (c) submission of an annual report on program performance, including plans for 

program improvement, as appropriate. The data collection system addresses nearly all of the 

agency’s GPRA indicators, either directly or by providing information for the agency’s other 

review processes.

3

NIDRR’s program performance measures include:

Measure 1.1: The percentage of National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation 

Research (NIDRR)-supported fellows, post-doctoral trainees, and doctoral students who 

publish results of NIDRR-sponsored research in refereed journals.

Measure 3.1: The number of new or improved National Institute on Disability and 

Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR)-funded assistive and universally designed 

technologies, products, and devices transferred to industry for potential 

commercialization.

Measure 3.2: The average number of publications per award based on National Institute 

on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR)-funded research and development 

activities in refereed journals.

Form Questions

In order to provide accurate and comprehensive documentation of the activities, outputs, 

and outcomes of NIDRR grantees, the APR forms will collect information in several areas (see 

Table 1). Each form contains data elements keyed specifically to goals, objectives, and reporting 

requirements of the respective programs. Appendix B contains a paper version of all the data 

elements for which NIDRR is requesting clearance. The individual Annual Performance Report 

forms, and a Final Report Form to be used by all except RFP grantees, will be compiled from the 

master list of data elements.4

 

3

Several additional measures (e.g., the percentage of grant applications that receive an average peer review score of 

85 or higher) are based on grant review documentation. 

4 Grantees in the RFP program will use a Final Report Form that differs only slightly from their Annual Performance 

Report, as indicated in Table 1.

Changes in the Reporting Form

The Web-based system used for Reporting Year 2013 reporting incorporates a number of 

features to meet NIDRR’s information needs while minimizing burden. The reporting form and 

system currently in use were designed so that information provided by grantees each year is 

automatically carried forward to the next. Under this design, grantees need only review and, if 

necessary, edit their previous year’s entries in order to complete subsequent annual reports. To 

further reduce burden, the form is designed so that, instead of describing their accomplishments, 

grantees simply select their most important accomplishments from among the outputs they

report. Data from grant applications, such as contact and budget information, are preloaded for 

efficiency. To facilitate grantee and NIDRR staff review of information submitted, the system 

includes system-generated tables that summarize information entered in specific sections. The 

Web-based system also carries forward information from one section of the form to the next; for 

example, information on outcome-oriented goals is carried forward for convenient linkage with 

projects/activities and publications.

Changes to the reporting form for Reporting Year 2014 are relatively minor, and include

asking grantees to provide information on:

5

 The impairment group(s) that is/are the focus of each research or development project. 

(This information is currently collected at the grant [not project] level.)

 Technology transfer plans and progress in implementing those plans (applies only to 

RERC grantees)

 What stage research projects are in (i.e., exploration and discovery, intervention 

development, intervention efficacy, or scale-up evaluation)

 On-line help text, replacing a hard-copy manual, has been added to the system. This text 

is shown in the reporting form contained in Appendix B. 

In addition, questions about project domains (i.e., health and function, employment, or 

participation and community living) have been revised to better correspond with those used in 

NIDRR’s Long-Range Plan. 

Additional changes for ARRT grantees only include:

 Removing the research, development, and training projects sections, as well as 

questions about graduate students (ARRT grantees do not conduct these activities or 

involve graduate students)

 Collecting information about the number of fellows to be trained, the duration of 

training, recruitment methods, and mentors

 

5 Changes to the reporting form are contingent upon availability of funding for changes to the Web-based reporting 

system.
6

 Collecting information about all research publications that are authored by NIDRRfunded fellows, regardless of funding source of the research in which they participated. 

When possible, new questions will be designed to minimize respondent burden and ensure 

accurate reporting by presenting information from previous annual reports for updating, rather 

than duplicating information entered earlier. 

Analysis

The reporting system will yield frequencies, cross tabulations, and other tabular displays 

of information to meet the needs of NIDRR staff, ED staff, and Congress under provisions of 

EDGAR and GPRA. NIDRR will prepare these reports according to regulatory requirements.

NIDRR will prepare other data tabulations on an as-needed basis to meet specific information 

needs. In addition, the APR system will support NIDRR’s external evaluation activities. 

2. Purposes and Uses of the Data

NIDRR and ED will use the information gathered annually from these data collection

efforts to comply with EDGAR, to provide Congress with the information mandated in GPRA, 

enable grantees to complete the 524B reporting requirements,6provide OMB information 

required for assessment of performance on GPRA indicators, and support its evaluation 

activities. Data collected from the 10 grant programs will provide a national description of the 

research activities of approximately 266 NIDRR grantees.

NIDRR, which has requested clearance of these forms, is charged in various ways with 

providing technical assistance and resources regarding disability research and will be better able 

to carry out that mission with the data collected through the APR reporting system. Research 

centers can also use their own annual performance data as they discuss, plan, generate support 

for, and implement research, development, and knowledge translation/dissemination programs 

and services for individuals with disabilities. These data will provide information that policy

makers can use in better understanding the barriers, opportunities, and outcomes involved in 

improving services for individuals with disabilities.

3. Information Technology

This information collection request is for a Web-based reporting system; grantees enter 

their data electronically through a secure Internet Website. This information collection system 

covers 10 grant programs funded or administered by NIDRR, and each grantee submits its 

information using a reporting form that is unique to the program mechanism under which it is 

funded. The 10 forms meet the reporting requirements for the following programs:

1. Rehabilitation Research Training Centers (RRTC)

2. Rehabilitation Engineering Research Centers (RERC)

 

6 The ED 524B form is available at http://www2.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/appforms/appforms.html.
7

3. Field Initiated Research Projects (FIP)

4. Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training Projects (ARRT)

5. Model Systems—(includes spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, burn centers) 

6. Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRP)

7. Knowledge Translation (KT) Projects

8. ADA National Network Centers (ADAs)

9. Small Business Innovation Research Projects (SBIR)

10. Research Fellowships Program (RFP)

The Web-based reporting forms are developed and maintained using Macromedia’s Cold Fusion 

Application Server software (version 5.0) and SQL Server 2000. Microsoft’s Internet 

Information Server is used as the primary Web server software. Collected information is stored 

in a relational database. Access to the data in this database is provided using a combination of 

Microsoft’s Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) technology and database query functionality 

provided by Cold Fusion Markup Language.

A primary advantage of this type of dynamic database is the immediate access NIDRR 

staff have to the information grantees submit. Not only are NIDRR staff able to identify, almost 

instantly, which grantees have submitted their completed forms (via the Internet), they can also 

generate reports, even on partial data, as requested by Congress or ED. The system can be 

programmed to send electronic mail messages to all grantee project directors prior to the due 

date of the annual reports. Electronic messages are also sent to grantees that do not submit their 

reports on time; federal project officers are thus able to spend less time telephoning grantees to 

ensure that annual reporting requirements are met.

Use of a Web-based data collection form minimizes grantee burden in submitting an 

annual report. Where appropriate, the reporting form automatically generates totals, saving 

grantees time and reducing the chance of arithmetical errors degrading the accuracy of program 

data. Another burden-reducing feature of the Web system permits grantees to enter information 

on an ongoing basis during the reporting period. During year one of a grant, a grantee will enter 

all relevant research project information; in subsequent grant years, the system will provide 

grantees with previously entered data, allowing them to make only the necessary edits rather than 

re-enter data from year to year, as they have in the past using paper forms. Finally, NIDRR’s 

contractor, RTI International, will provide any necessary technical assistance to grantees, 

expediting the process.

RTI has a proven track record of developing Web-based reporting systems that are 

accessible to persons with disabilities. The reporting forms contained in this clearance package 

will meet or exceed requirements for accessibility contained in Section 508 of the Rehabilitation 

Act of 1973 and all other relevant statutes and regulations. RTI has worked closely with the ED 

Assistive Technology Team to maximize the accessibility of the reporting systems it has created 

for NIDRR and other ED agencies since 1998. To the extent possible, RTI will make any

requested changes necessary to ensure that the Web-based reporting forms reflect the state-ofthe-art in Internet accessibility practices.
8

4. Efforts to Identify Duplication

The ten forms contained in this clearance package do not duplicate items from any other 

NIDRR data collection efforts.

5. Methods Used to Minimize Burden on Small Entities

This information collection will involve the small businesses that have received grants 

under the SBIR program. The other NIDRR programs covered by this data collection request are 

not small businesses or small entities. The number of businesses awarded SBIR grants by

NIDRR varies each year; in Reporting Year 2013 a total of 12 small businesses had Phase II 

grants and were required to report using the APR tailored for that program.

The following methods will be used to minimize the reporting burden placed on SBIR 

grantees:

 The SBIR reporting form will contain fewer data elements than the reporting forms of 

most other programs.

 Recipients of Phase II grants will be able to use data entered in previous years’

reporting forms as a starting point for creating each subsequent annual report. There 

will be no need to reenter data that are unchanged, such as project abstracts, key staff 

information, general contact information, or narrative of goals and objectives.

 Where appropriate, the Web-based reporting system will automatically generate 

totals, saving the grantees the time necessary to make those computations.

 Reporting forms can be opened and closed at any time, allowing the grantees to 

complete their reports at their convenience.

Any remaining burden on small businesses is unavoidable, if data are to be collected 

from the SBIR grantees in accordance with GPRA and EDGAR reporting requirements.

6. Consequences of Not Collecting the Information

The proposed data collection activities involve an annual required data collection from 

NIDRR grantees. If the information is not collected, data on key aspects of programs and 

services for individuals with disabilities will not be available; consequently, NIDRR would be 

unable to meet statutory and regulatory requirements for collection and reporting of data on 

grantees’ activities and outcomes.

7. Special Circumstances

The proposed data collection is consistent with guidelines set forth in 5 CFR 1320.5, and 

requires no special circumstances. 

8. Consultation Outside the Agency
9

NIDRR reviews the reporting form annually, and has revised the form based on further 

analysis of the agency’s information needs and its experience in collecting and analyzing data for 

Reporting Years 2010-2012. Input on revisions came not only from NIDRR’s senior staff but 

also from RTI’s analysis of technical assistance requests for the period, as well as its own 

recommendations.

9. Payments or Gifts to Respondents

No payments or gifts are to be provided to respondents.

10. Assurances of Confidentiality

APR instructions state the following: 

Under the provisions of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993, 

NIDRR has responsibility to develop a strategic plan that includes performance goals, 

objectives, indicators, and measures. As with all other agencies in the federal 

government, beginning in March 2000, NIDRR reports annually to Congress on the 

status and progress in meeting these performance objectives. To prepare these reports 

for Congress, NIDRR will draw on information from two primary sources: 

(1) information that grantees submit annually in the web-based performance reporting 

form; and (2) information from the external evaluation being conducted by the National 

Academy of Sciences that reviews the quality of grantee outputs and accomplishments. 

The first results from this evaluation will be available in 2012.

NIDRR’s intent is that this reporting form will continue to be the standard annual report 

of progress from all grantees. This report form contains relatively minor revisions to the 

last annual progress report form approved by OMB. . 

The full contents of individual grantee performance reports will not be published on the 

Web as stand-alone documents for public use. However, data on individual grantees will 

be used to provide supporting documentation for the external evaluation being conducted 

by the National Academy of Sciences. In addition, these data will inform agency 

program planning and priority development. NIDRR may make aggregate information 

from the APRs available on the Web at the program level (e.g., RERCs, RRTCs,) or by 

portfolio or area of the Long-Range Plan (e.g., Health and Function, Technology). The 

one exception to the primary aggregate use of individual APR information occurs in 

conjunction with NIDRR’s knowledge translation (KT) efforts and accountability 

requirements. To support these activities, select publications and other outputs and 

outcomes reported by grantees in the APR are publicized in NIDRR outreach vehicles 

and incorporated into performance accountability reports. Questions regarding potential 

uses of the information submitted by individual grantees should be directed to Mary 

Darnell (NIDRR) at (202) 245-7316.

As a National Institute of Standards and Technology certified and accredited system, the 

Web-Based Reporting System for NIDRR Grantees incorporates numerous features that protect 

the security of grantee information. System access for grantees and NIDRR staff may be 
10

authorized only by NIDRR’s designated System Owner, and the majority of NIDRR staff (i.e., 

except senior staff) do not have access to complete reports for specific grants other than those 

they are assigned to monitor (although they do have access to aggregate reports that include 

selected information for specific grants). Grantee contacts designated by NIDRR must respond to 

an electronic message from RTI and confirm their contact information before receiving initial 

passwords (which provide access only to their own reporting forms), and passwords must be 

changed at initial login. Three unsuccessful login attempts by any user result in system lockout, 

with administrator intervention required to unlock the account. The reporting system operates in 

an encrypted Secure Sockets Layer environment behind a firewall, which is configured at an 

appropriate level to protect the network.

11. Sensitive Questions

The questions included in the form are not considered to be sensitive.

12. Estimate of Response Burden

The annual burden for this data collection in a grantee’s first year of award is estimated at 

52 hours. In subsequent years, the estimated response burden is approximately 22 hours for 

NIDRR’s major programs (i.e. RRTC, RERC, MS, DRRP) and 10 hours for the other program 

mechanisms. NIDRR has reviewed the APR form carefully to ensure that all requested 

information is necessary and to reduce burden to the extent possible. The Web-based system has 

been designed so that, whenever possible, information entered by grantees is carried forward 

from one year to the next, with only verification and any necessary updating of that information 

required. The design of the system also provides for preloading or uploading of information from 

other sources (e.g., budget data from grant applications and abstracts submitted to the National 

Rehabilitation Information Center). Given these features, as well as grantees’ increasing 

familiarity with the system and reporting requirements, we have estimated the average amount of 

time required to complete the reporting form at 52 hours in a grantee’s first year of award. In 

subsequent years, grantees will be asked to update that information, which we anticipate will 

require approximately 22 hours for NIDRR’s major programs (i.e. RRTC, RERC, MS, DRRP) 

and 10 hours for the other program mechanisms. Because planned changes to the reporting form 

are minor, these estimates are the same as for the reporting form currently in use. 

The Reporting Year 2013 universe of NIDRR grantees required to report using the 

current Web-based annual project performance reporting system totaled 266, distributed across 

program mechanisms as follows:

RRTC: 26 grants

RERC: 20 grants

MS: 45 grants

DRRP: 28 grants

FIP: 91 grants

ARRT: 21 grants

KT Projects: 2 grant

ADA Centers: 12 grants
11

SBIR Phase 2: 12 grants

RFP: 9 grants

While the number of grantees will vary from year to year, all grantees will be required to 

submit an annual performance report. Based on an average of 52 hours to complete the reporting 

form in a grantee’s first year of award and a cost to respondents of $30 per hour, the total 

estimated cost per respondent in the first year of award is $1,560, and the total cost for all 266

grantees is $414,960. The estimated response burden includes time to review the instructions, 

gather existing data, and complete and review the form.

In subsequent years, the estimated response burden is approximately 22 hours for 

NIDRR’s major programs (i.e. RRTC, RERC, MS, DRRP) and 10 hours for the other program 

mechanisms. At a cost to respondents of $30 per hour, the total estimated cost per respondent in 

subsequent years is $660 for the major programs and $300 for the other program mechanisms.

The total cost for all 119 grantees in the major programs is $78,540, and the total cost for all 147

grantees in the other program mechanisms is $44,100.

The estimated cost to respondents of $30 per hour represents the average, fully-loaded 

wage rate, i.e., includes pre-tax cash wages, fringe benefits and overhead support, for four 

different classes of labor ranging from clerical to managerial labor. The average wage rate 

accounts for the amount of time different types of grantee personnel (i.e., clerical, technical, 

professional, and managerial) are expected to expend in preparing the report.

13. Estimate of Cost Burden of Collecting Information

These are annual and final reporting forms. There are no capital costs nor are any 

equipment purchases necessary.

14. Estimate of Annualized Cost to the Federal Government

RTI International, of Research Triangle Park, NC, will continue to operate the Webbased reporting system under contract to NIDRR. The cost of revising the system used in 

Reporting Year 2013, as required by changes in the APR forms, is estimated at approximately
12

$19,900. The annualized cost of operating the system, including preparation of reports, provision 

of technical assistance to grantees and NIDRR staff, and other activities, is estimated be 

approximately $345,259.

15. Why Has the Burden Changed

Because planned changes to the reporting form are minor, estimated burden per grantee

has not changed, and is the same as for the reporting form currently in use. Total annual hours 

requested is slightly lower (-520) because it is based on the number of 2013 grantees (266), 

instead of the number of grantees that were funded at the time the previous OMB package was 

submitted (276). 

16. Plans for Tabulation and Publication

A NIDRR contractor uses data from the APR system to prepare an annual “Summary of 

Annual Performance Reports from NIDRR Grantees.” The audience for this report includes 

NIDRR and other OSERS staff. The report presents information on funding, expenditures, and 

projects; research, development, and training programs; Model Systems datasets; products; and 

staffing. It presents frequency distributions, cross-tabulations, percentages, and means. Data are 

displayed in tables, pie charts, and several types of bar charts. Information from the APR system 

is also used in the Annual Report to Congress prepared by the Rehabilitation Services 

Administration (another component of OSERS). 

17. Display Expiration Date for OMB Approval

NIDRR will display the expiration date for OMB approval of the information collection.

18. Exceptions to Certification Statement

There are no exceptions to the certification statement.
