3.3: Develop and Evolve the Lines of Business and Other Collaborative Opportunities
A major contribution of the FEA Practice is the identification and design of common, shared business processes and information
technology within and across the Federal government. Using the FEA, OMB examined agency EA data and identified five major
collaborative initiatives to transform the government, improve services to citizens, and deliver substantial savings. Launched
in February 2004, these opportunities, known as the Lines of Business (LoB) initiatives (in the areas of Financial Management,
Human Resources Management, Grants Management, Case Management, and Federal Health Architecture ), used EA principles to identify
common solutions, develop solution architectures, and break down traditional agency silos. These initiatives are projected
to save in excess of $5 billion over the next ten years. Moving forward, OMB will advance these initiatives by using the FEA
to identify additional collaborative opportunities, and support agency migration to, and utilization of, E-Government initiatives,
LoBs and SmartBUY.
