I, ECIT


We assist the Congress and federal agencies in identifying fiscal challenges
facing the government and ways to improve the accountability and
performance of government programs. This improvement will become
more important as an aging citizenry stresses the budget and eventually
limits the government's flexibility to respond to other emerging national
needs. In addition, we assess agencies' progress in becoming high-
performing, results-oriented organizations; work with agencies to identify
opportunities for improved human capital practices; and periodically
report on areas within the federal government that we have identified as
high-risk because of their greater vulnerabilities to waste, fraud, abuse,
and mismanagement.

We are focused on

   facilitating the federal implementation of human capital practices used
   by high-performing organizations;
   addressing the long-term fiscal health of the federal government;
   analyzing budgetary choices;
   identifying budgetary and management implications of relying
   on contractors or state or local governments to achieve federal
   program objectives;
   analyzing and supporting federal efforts to instill results-oriented
   management across the government; and
   highlighting the specific major management challenges confronting
   agencies and those federal operations at highest risk of fraud, waste,
   abuse, and mismanagement.
