The Case for Change

  • Government is on a “burning platform,” and the status quo way of doing business is unacceptable for a variety of reasons, including:

    • Past fiscal trends and significant long-range challenges
    • Rising public expectations for demonstrable results and enhanced responsiveness
    • Selected trends and challenges having no boundaries
    • Additional resource demands due to recent terrorism events in the United States
    • Government performance/accountability and high risk challenges, including the lack of effective human capital strategies
