3.3.1: Support the Identification of New Lines of Business
OMB’s use of FEA data to drive LoB analysis and common solutions will continue to be central to directing information resource
investments across the Federal government. The FEA PMO will continue to collaborate with government-wide task forces, using
EA principles and proven best practices to proactively identify new, business-driven common solutions. Potential common solutions
are not limited to technical/systems solutions, and may entail the development of new policies, standards and guidelines.
The FEA PMO will analyze agency budget, program and EA data to pinpoint potential collaboration opportunities for streamlining
business processes, eliminating redundancies and realizing cost efficiencies. For each potential opportunity identified, the
FEA PMO will quantify the potential value, define the scope, and assess viability and feasibility. One particular area of
interest is the Federal government's use of and investment in IT infrastructure. The FEA PMO will perform analysis using the
FEA reference models and agency "consolidated business cases" for office automation, IT infrastructure, and telecommunications
to determine if there are opportunities for consolidating platforms or leveraging SmartBUY to reduce the estimated $11 billion
requested in FY 2006 for IT infrastructure. Other areas of interest include Fleet Management, Environmental Management and
Acquisitions Management.
