OMB 2000

Changes Resulting From the Reorganization of the Office of Management and Budget Gao ID: T-GGD/AIMD-96-68 February 7, 1996

This testimony discusses changes at the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) resulting from a 1994 reorganization--commonly known as OMB 2000. The main goal of OMB 2000 was to integrate the agency's budget analysis, management review, and policy development roles under a new organizational structure. In doing so, OMB sought to improve its decisionmaking process and its oversight of executive branch operations. This testimony focuses on three issues: (1) changes in OMB's structure, responsibilities, and staffing, including changes to the statutory offices; (2) changes in OMB's attention to management issues in the budget process; and (3) the way OMB planned to evaluate OMB 2000.
