BPM

Federal agencies are under increasing pressure from the new administration to improve their efficiency and become more transparent. From new regulations under The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) to new policies and initiatives from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), agencies are being asked to step up and show how they are wisely spending the taxpayer’s money and their success in meeting their mission objectives. Agencies can no longer provide a manual review on an annual basis, but must provide continuous updates and data feeds to support OMB sites such as data.gov or the new IT Dashboard.

Fortunately, new technologies and solutions are available to automate business processes as well as the collection and reporting of information. Automated business process management solutions provide agencies with the tools to map out their business processes and tie them to their Operation Support System (OSS) to ensure not only the timely completion of tasks, but also the ability to monitor progress and report on effectiveness.

Benefits are:

  • Reduced costs
  • Improved efficiency
  • Business process optimization
  • Automated reporting
  • Increased transparency
