Business Transformation at USAID
To make USAID more efficient, transparent and effective, the Agency's multi-year business transformation is standardizing and streamlining administrative systems and financial management tools - as well as implementing reforms in human resources, knowledge management, and strategic budgeting. The reform initiatives support USAID programs worldwide and strengthen the Agency's ability to manage and account for taxpayers' funds.
The Agency's business transformation is based on an integrated and coordinated plan organized around four areas that describe how we are applying the Agency's most important assets - our People, our Ideas and our Technology to improve our Results in development and humanitarian initiatives around the world.
Our Strategic Management of Human Capital reforms address the People dimension and are presented in our comprehensive Human Capital Strategic Plan. Our Business Systems Modernization initiatives address the Technology dimension and includes modernizing the way we select and manage information technology (IT) investments. Our Knowledge for Development initiative addresses the ideas dimension and includes a strategy to capture USAID's vast reservoir of development knowledge and generate new ideas. Our over-arching Strategic Budgeting initiative addresses the results dimension and includes reforms to improve the Agency's strategic planning and resource allocation.
The four inter-related initiatives of USAID's Business Transformation support the President's Management Agenda goals to improve the management and performance of federal programs.
