Strategic Goal M5

Other Information:

The Department of the Treasury strives to promote national prosperity through economic growth and job creation; maintains public trust and confidence in our economic and financial systems; and ensures that it has the workforce, technology, and business practices to meet the nation’s needs effectively and efficiently. We will realize our Strategic Goals by building a strong institution that is citizen-centered, resultsoriented, and actively promotes innovation through competition. Treasury will work effectively and efficiently to implement the President’s Management Agenda and continuously improve our internal business operations. All Treasury bureaus have means, strategies, and success metrics to drive their performance, achieve their performance goals, and become world class in management practices. The means and strategies describe a Treasury-wide framework that provides guidance to our policy offices, operating bureaus, and our most import asset, our employees. The Department of the Treasury has a diverse portfolio of products and services. We are strengthening the communication and relationships between our policy offices and the operating bureaus to focus on meaningful business results, with an emphasis on improving financial management. We are strategically aligning Treasury policies, business plans, programs and resources to achieve meaningful business results. The Treasury Strategic Plan for FY 2003 – 2008 and its implementation reflects this alignment. From senior leadership to management levels to line staff, the Treasury workforce was engaged to develop an integrated plan in which policies and operations aligned. Continuing efforts to further align these elements are accomplished through regular meetings, integrated performance and budgeting, and a refocusing on our core businesses.
