In March 2016, the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) requested that the
IDA Science and Technology Policy Institute (STPI) describe a set of approaches to improve
innovation in and the effectiveness of the Federal Government. The innovative approaches
identified create new processes, products, services, and methods of delivery; have been
implemented or are in the initial stages of implementation; and have led to improvements in
outcomes, efficiency, effectiveness, or quality related to Federal Government activities.
The objective of this project was to describe the lessons learned from the implementation of innovative approaches and identify opportunities for how to support the scaling up of these approaches throughout the Federal Government. The Partnership Development in the Federal Government report describes general practices related to developing partnerships in the Federal Government with non-Federal stakeholders, including scoping, deploying, and establishing oversight of partnership activities.
Prior to its publication online in 2019, this report was an internal Federal resource for Federal Government employees. It was published online to help benefit Federal and non-Federal communities alike. Because this report was written 3 years prior to its 2019 online publication, some of the URLs referenced may no longer be valid.
