Adopting an enterprise framework will allow our government to achieve the results that the American people demand and position it to tackle the major challenges facing the nation. It also will enable government to better husband its resources and reduce programmatic fragmentation and overlap. To that end, we have identified nine overarching strategies that will provide the infrastructure and impetus to take the enterprise approach to scale and ensure that it is not seen or treated as the pet project of one administration and thus become the first victim of the next.

In proposing these strategies, the Partnership for Public Service and Booz Allen Hamilton consulted with more than 50 current and former public officials, business and labor leaders and academic experts to identify those areas in most urgent need of reform. We built on management initiatives of the current and past administrations that are working well and should be continued Enterprise Strate gies to Make Our Government More Efficient and Effective and expanded. Our recommendations largely focus on what can be done by the executive branch without action by Congress, although there are legislative changes that could improve the effectiveness of the enterprise approach and that will be needed to make improvements in the civil service.
