NIST-Relative citation impact of NIST- authored publications.
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-12-02T18:49:05.000ZThis indicator demonstrates that NIST consistently produces useful and relevant scientific and technical publications and is outcome-oriented. The "relative citation impact" indicator is the ratio of the average number of citations per publication (citation rata) for all NIST publications in a year to the average expected citation rate for similar publications in a large group of peer institutions in the world. Publications typically lag by a minimum of two years due to the time needed for research, writing, journal peer review, and publication processes. The average for U.S. institutions is about 1.3.

NTIS - Total investment by the Federal Government on new public-private projects (or Government- Industry projects) entered into under the Joint Venture Authority per year
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-27T17:09:53.000ZThe indicator measures the value, in U.S. Dollars, of all new project agreements between NTIS' Joint Venture Partners ( JVPs) and Federal Agencies facilitated by NTIS in a given year. By tracking the obligated values, this indicator shows the actual Federal Government investment in technology and data analytics development.

EDA - Percentage of those actions taken by Trade Adjustment Assistance Center clients that achieved the expected results
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-12-06T17:55:16.000ZThis is a follow up to the previous measure: “Percentage of Trade Adjustment Assistance Center (TAAC) clients taking action as a result of the assistance facilitated by the TAAC.” This measure will determine if the assistance facilitated by the TAACs is market based and results in desired outcomes. The centers conduct client surveys and report findings to EDA.

ITA-Exports generated annually from public/private partnerships.
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-27T16:02:26.000ZThe indicator represents the dollar value of exports generated by Market Development Cooperator Program (MDCP) project activity. Through MDCP public/private partnerships, ITA provides technical and financial assistance to “cooperators” like trade associations and other non-profits. The elements of each project vary but examples include educating foreign authorities about industry standards, establishing product demonstration centers abroad, underwriting the cost of participation in foreign trade shows, and addressing non-tariff barriers to trade.

ITA - Trade barriers removed, reduced or prevented (annual)
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-13T15:43:57.000ZThis indicator captures the results of ITA’s efforts to facilitate fair competition in international trade for U.S. firms and workers by improving the number of trade barriers reduced, removed, or prevented. The measure tends to fluctuate over time as the outcome (foreign governments agreeing to voluntarily honor trade agreement obligations) is dependent on actions by sovereign nations which are outside of direct U.S. control.

ITA - Annual dollar value impact of clients recieving export assistance
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-27T16:00:19.000ZThis indicator measures the combined impact of export promotion, Advocacy, and commercial diplomacy assistance. The annual value of export promotion work is extrapolated from annual client survey results, Advocacy impact value is based on the dollar value of WINs reported to the Advocacy Center and commercial diplomacy value represents the value of trade barriers reduced, removed or prevented based on economic impact analysis

NOAA - Annual number of peer-reviewed publications related to environmental understanding and prediction
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-20T16:12:57.000ZThe annual number of peer reviewed publications is an indicator of productivity and relevance and is tracked using online resources. Peer review is one of the important procedures used to ensure that the quality of published information meets the standards of the scientific and technical community. * FY 2019 is the first year that we are reporting on both NOAA-authored publications (previously the only type of publication measured) and NOAA-funded publications.

EDA - Jobs created/retained - 3 year totals
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-19T16:40:51.000ZThe formula-driven calculation projects investment data at 3, 6, and 9 year intervals from the investment award. The formula is based on a study done by Rutgers University, which compiled and analyzed the performance of EDA construction investments after 9 years. This approach was reviewed and validated by third-party analysis conducted by Grant Thornton in 2008. Based on this formula and a review of EDA's historical results, EDA estimates that 40% of the 9-year projection would be realized after 3 years, 75% after 6 years, and 100% after 9 years.

NOAA - Percent of stocks for which catch is below the specified Annual Catch Limit
performance.commerce.gov | Last Updated 2019-11-13T14:29:39.000ZThis measure tracks the percentage of fish stocks that are below their annual catch limit (ACL) in a given year. In 2007, Congress enacted a requirement to use ACLs to end and prevent overfishing. The use of ACLs has been successful in ending and preventing overfishing, as stock assessments have shown the number of stocks subject to overfishing continuing to decline. Performance is measured by comparing the final annual catch estimate to the ACL for each stock that has an ACL. If the final annual catch estimate for the stock is less than the ACL, NOAA will report that the stock did not exceed its ACL.
