Office of Management and Budget, Redundant Information Systems Relating to On-Line Rulemaking Initiative (OMB Memorandum M-02-08) (May 6, 2002) (full-text).
Overview[]
The purpose of this memorandum was to advise agency heads of the OMB's intention to consolidate redundant IT systems relating to the President’s on-line rulemaking initiative. Redundant systems make it difficult to find and comment on the large number of proposed regulations and create performance gaps in the form of reduced customer service and lead to duplicative spending. Consolidating technology investments better serves citizens by decreasing existing islands of automation and minimizing government costs.
