Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Over the past several years, major US federal agencies from agriculture to veterans' affairs have populated enterprise architecture (EA) repositories with current state data and plans for their future state. What's more, they've all used the formats provided by the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) reference models, enabling easy cross-agency analysis. With this foundation in place, OMB will use agencies' architectures to map out a transformation to a set of common cross-agency solutions. The goal? A results-oriented federal government with redundancy squeezed out. Will it happen? With Karen Evans' leadership and the stranglehold that OMB has on agencies' budgets, Forrester foresees significant progress toward streamlined government in the next five years.
