 Report To The Director, Office Of

Management And Budget





Streamlining The Federal Field Structure:

Potential Opportunities, Barriers,

And Actions That Can Be Taken



At a time when the Federal Government is
looking for ways to cut Federal spending and
achieve a balanced budget, every reasonable
cost-cutting opportunity must be explored.

The General Accounting Office sees the Fed-
eral Government's field structure--that con-
glomeration of department and agency offices
in 50 States where 88 percent of Federal civil-
ian employees work--as a prime area for ex-
ploring ways of cutting costs and increasing
Government efficiency.

This report summarizes some of the actions
Federal agencies have taken to streamline their
field structure and highlights past GAO reports
pointing out where additional opportunities
may exist. It also discusses some of the barriers
to streamlining and identifies what some agen-
cies and others can do to identify further op-
portunities.
