A Multi-Generational Vision for Reform

The President’s Management Agenda (PMA) sets forth a long-term vision for effective Government on behalf of the American people focused on the following:


Mission


The American people count on the Federal Government every day, from national security to infrastructure to food and water safety. Public servants must be accountable for mission-driven results but must also have the necessary tools and resources to deliver.

Service


Federal customers range from small businesses seeking loans, to families receiving disaster support, to veterans owed proper benefits and medical care. They deserve a customer experience that compares to—or exceeds—that of leading private sector organizations, yet most Federal services lag behind the private sector.

Stewardship


Effective stewardship of taxpayer funds is a crucial responsibility of the Government, from preventing fraud to maximizing impact. Taxpayer dollars must go to effective programs that produce results efficiently.


Key Drivers of Reform


Modern information technology.
Data, accountability, and transparency.
The Workforce for the 21st century.


The President’s Management Agenda is a set of initiatives and standards from the White House’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) designed to improve the impact of government agencies on behalf of the American people. The PMA lays out a long-term vision for modernizing the federal government.
