OSEP monitors all IDEA Part C and B programs through its Differentiated Monitoring and Support 2.0 system (DMS.2.0). OSEP differentiates its approach for each state based on the state's unique strengths, progress, challenges, and needs. DMS 2.0 is a cyclical monitoring process that focuses on states’**1** general supervision systems. OSEP will continue to provide support and technical assistance that is differentiated based on each state’s needs. 

General supervision encompasses each state’s responsibility to ensure that the state and its subgrantees and contractors meet the requirements of IDEA which includes: 

- Improving educational results and functional outcomes for all children with disabilities, and early intervention results and functional outcomes for all infants and toddlers with disabilities; and 
- Ensuring that public agencies meet the program requirements under Parts B and C of IDEA, with a particular emphasis on those requirements that are most closely related to improving early intervention results for infants and toddlers with disabilities and educational results for children and youth with disabilities. 

As outlined in the DMS Framework, OSEP will examine the state’s policies and procedures and state-level implementation of these policies and procedures regarding the following components of general supervision: 

- Monitoring and Improvement 
- Data, including the State Performance Plan/Annual Performance Report (SPP/APR) 
- Fiscal Management 
- Dispute Resolution 

In addition to the core general supervision monitoring components, OSEP will focus on select topics or additional areas, based on the results of OSEP’s review of publicly available and state provided information, protocol analysis and local and stakeholder interviews.
