The President's Management Agenda, Fiscal Year 2002

Abstract : I am pleased to send to the Congress a bold strategy for improving the management and performance of the federal government. Government likes to begin things to declare grand new programs and causes. But good beginnings are not the measure of success. What matters in the end is completion. Performance. Results. Not just making promises, but making good on promises. In my Administration, that will be the standard from the farthest regional office of government to the highest office in the land. This Report focuses on fourteen areas of improvement where we can begin to deliver on our promises. The recommendations we have targeted address the most apparent deficiencies where the opportunity to improve performance is the greatest. These solutions are practical measures, well within our reach to implement. These proposals will often require the cooperation of Congress. Congress' agenda is a crowded one, and there is an understandable temptation to ignore management reforms in favor of new policies and programs. However, what matters most is performance and results. In the long term, there are few items more urgent than ensuring that the federal government is well run and results-oriented.
