Four portfolios to get the USG connected to citizens • Individuals:building easy to find one-stop-shops for citizens -- creating single points of easy entry to access high quality government services. • Businesses:reduce burden on businesses through use of Internet protocols and by consolidating redundant reporting requirements. Intergovernmental:make it easier for states to meet reporting requirements, while enabling better performance measurement and results. Internal efficiency and effectiveness:reduce costs for government administration by using best practices in areas such as procurement, financial management, and knowledge management. 1/6/2020
