         Subject: Executive Office of the President: Analysis of Mandated Report on Key
                 Information Technology Areas

         In the fiscal year 2002 appropriations act covering the Executive Office of the
         President (EOP),' the Congress limited the office's use of systems modernization
         funds until EOP submitted a report to the House and Senate Committees on
         Appropriations that included an enterprise architecture (blueprint for
         modernization), a description of an information technology (IT) capital planning and
         investment control process, a capital investment plan (portfolio of planned
         investments for fiscal year 2003), and an IT human capital plan (an approach to
         meeting strategic human capital needs). As specified in the act, the report was to be
         approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and reviewed by us.

         EOP submitted its enterprise architecture, investment control process description,
         and capital investment plan on March 13, 2002; the IT human capital plan followed on
         March 18, 2002. These submissions constitute EOP's report, which OMB subsequently
         approved on April 19, 2002. As we agreed with your offices, our review objective was
         to determine EOP's progress and plans relative to the four areas covered by the
         report.

         To accomplish our objective, we reviewed the EOP report to ensure that it satisfied
         the conditions specified by the Congress, including that it addressed each of the key

         'Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2002 (Public Law 107-67).
