Publisher's Synopsis
Through our three annual reports, we have identified 162 areas in which there are opportunities to reduce fragmentation, overlap, or duplication or to achieve cost savings or enhance revenue. (Appendix I presents a summary of the areas we identified in our three annual reports.) Within these 162 areas, we identify approximately 380 actions that the executive branch or Congress could take to address the issues we identified. These areas span a wide range of government missions, covering activities within all 15 cabinet-level executive departments and 17 other federal entities. Collectively, if the actions we suggest are implemented, the government could potentially save tens of billions of dollars annually.
