  **Date of Submission:**                 

  **Agency:**                            Department of Education

  **Bureau:**                            Office of the Chief Financial

  **Name of this Capital Asset:**        Travel Management System (TMS)

  **Unique Project (Investment)          018-14-01-01-01-1050-00

  see section 53. For all other, use

  **What kind of investment will this be Mixed Life Cycle
  in FY2008? (Please NOTE: Investments   
  moving to O&M ONLY in FY2008, with     
  Planning/Acquisition activities prior  
  to FY2008 should not select O&M. These 
  investments should indicate their      
  current status.)**                     

  **What was the first budget year this  FY2005
  investment was submitted to OMB?**     

  **Provide a brief summary and          
  justification for this investment,     
  including a brief description of how   
  this closes in part or in whole an     
  identified agency performance gap:**   

  eTS supports the PMA on expanded       
  e-government. The eTS solution         
  provides a web-based end-to-end        
  integrated solution to ED travelers    
  that will enable travel documentation  
  to be completed and processed in a     
  more efficient manner. The solution    
  also supports EFT payments through     
  split disbursement capablity. Split    
  disbursement capability allows a       
  traveler to designate a portion of     
  their reimbursement to be sent         
  directly to the Government-contracted  
  travel card vendor and the remainder   
  to the employees\' personal account.   
  With the implementation of split       
  disbursement, the Department can       
  realize a benefit with fewer defaulted 
  credit cards because payments are made 
  directly to the vendor, rather than    
  through the traveler first. The        
  integrated solution includes           
  interfaces between ED\'s financial     
  system and the eTS system to provide   
  more timely transmissions and accuracy 
  of automated (secured) data. Another   
  advantage of the eTS solution is the   
  integrated On-Line Booking engine      
  (OBE). The OBE is integrated into the  
  solution to allow travelers the        
  flexibility of logging into one system 
  creating the authorization and         
  clicking a button to allow them to     
  make common carrier, hotel and rental  
  car reservations within the same       
  application. This will allow travelers 
  more efficient and effective travel    
  document processing.

  **In order to successfully address this area of the exhibit 300,      
  performance goals must be provided for the agency and be linked to    
  the annual performance plan. The investment must discuss the          
  agency\'s mission and strategic goals, and performance measures must  
  be provided. These goals need to map to the gap in the agency\'s      
  strategic goals and objectives this investment is designed to fill.   
  They are the internal and external performance benefits this          
  investment is expected to deliver to the agency (e.g., improve        
  efficiency by 60 percent, increase citizen participation by 300       
  percent a year to achieve an overall citizen participation rate of 75 
  percent by FY 2xxx, etc.). The goals must be clearly measurable       
  investment outcomes, and if applicable, investment outputs. They do   
  not include the completion date of the module, milestones, or         
  investment, or general goals, such as, significant, better, improved

  **Agencies must use Table 1 below for reporting performance goals and

| **\'Internal\' reuse is within an agency. For example, one agency   |   |

| another agency within the same department. \'External\' reuse is    |   |
| one agency within a department reusing a service component provided |   |
| by another agency in another department. A good example of this is  |   |
| an E-Gov initiative service being reused by multiple organizations  |   |

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------

  **3. Which alternative was selected by the Agency\'s
  Executive/Investment Committee and why was it chosen?**

  Alternative One was selected and was derived by the Federal Travel
  Regulations whereas each Federal civilian agency must migrate to a eTS
  solution no later than September 30, 2006. The Department received a
  waiver of the migration date to extend to October 2, 2006 due to the
  implementation of a new FMSS system. If a waiver would not have been
  granted a significant amount of funding would have been required to
  integrate the solution with the legacy and new FMSS systems.

  **4. What specific qualitative benefits will be realized?**

  With the migration to the eTS solution, the Department will be in
  compliance with the FTR provisions.
