The Office of Management and Budget evaluates, formulates, and
coordinates management procedures and program objectives within and
among Federal departments and agencies. It also controls the
administration of the Federal budget, while routinely providing the
President with recommendations regarding budget proposals and relevant
legislative enactments.
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), formerly the Bureau of the
Budget, was established in the Executive Office of the President
pursuant to Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 1939 (5 U.S.C. app.).
The Office's primary functions are:
--to assist the President in developing and maintaining effective
government by reviewing the organizational structure and management
procedures of the executive branch to ensure that the intended results
are achieved;
--to assist in developing efficient coordinating mechanisms to
implement Government activities and to expand interagency cooperation;
--to assist the President in preparing the budget and in formulating
the Government's fiscal program;
--to supervise and control the administration of the budget;

--to assist the President by clearing and coordinating departmental
advice on proposed legislation and by making recommendations effecting
Presidential action on legislative enactments, in accordance with past
practice;
--to assist in developing regulatory reform proposals and programs
for paperwork reduction, especially reporting burdens of the public;
--to assist in considering, clearing, and, where necessary,
preparing proposed Executive orders and proclamations;
--to plan and develop information systems that provide the President
with program performance data;
--to plan, conduct, and promote evaluation efforts that assist the
President in assessing program objectives, performance, and efficiency;
--to keep the President informed of the progress of activities by
Government agencies with respect to work proposed, initiated, and
completed, together with the relative timing of work between the several
agencies of the Government, all to the end that the work programs of the
several agencies of the executive branch of the Government may be
coordinated and that the moneys appropriated by the Congress may be
expended in the most economical manner, barring overlapping and
duplication of effort; and
--to improve the economy, efficiency, and effectiveness of the
procurement processes by providing overall direction of procurement
policies, regulations, procedures, and forms.
