Sinopsis

Excerpt from Using the Best Practices of Information Technology in Government: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Government Management, Information, and Technology of the Committee on Government Reform and Oversight House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session, February 26, 1996

I believe, if done properly, the insertion of information technology into daily Government operations can reduce administrative bur dens, streamline processes, and decrease the time it takes for final delivery of goods and services to the American taxpayer. Further more, efficient and effective use Of information technology equips managers with better tools to monitor program activity and spend ing, resulting in more accurate program accountability.

With this in mind, we look forward to the testimony of today's witnesses. They each have experience as leaders in using informa tion technology to improve their organizations. It is my hope that through this hearing we can gain a better understanding of which tools can be applied in order for Federal departments and agencies to perform at the highest level.

I know we all look forward to hearing from our witnesses on this most important issue.

I would like to ask the gentleman from Minnesota, representing the minority, if he has an opening statement.

Mr. Peterson. Mr. Chairman, I do not, but I want to commend you for looking into this area. I am here to learn and listen to some of our witnesses.

Mr. Horn. I thank the ranking member very much. The sub committees Of the House Committee on Government Reform and Oversight, by tradition, swear in the witnesses. So if we can bring forward the first panel Mr. Huber, we will swear you and then we are going to be very liberal on testimony this morning, so we won't limit you to the 5-minute rule.
